    New cars stressful ??

    I ended up with a cracked windscreen last week on my SE, had the car since mid January so was gutted. We contacted the insurance and they said they'd sort out a new one and from calling them to getting it fitted was 9 days. It came from MG with all the camera and mirror fitting applied so all...

    On screen alert disappears way to quickly

    Iv thought exactly the same about the alerts on the screen, frustrating just seeing the bottom of the box vanish.

    Two tone roof

    We had a thread about this over the weekend, another member thought exactly the same as you. A wrap is definitely the best and cheaper option. When I get a chance at work I'm going to wrap the roof on my black SE SR in silver (might even do the wing mirrors as well) might be a while but I'll...

    Two tone roof

    Sadly we don't do PPF but it's a good product, we tend not to work on cars as as a business as we specialise in other things but a couple of us do cars and vans ourselves so if you want something drop me a line

    Two tone roof

    It's more high value cars that seem to have it done, we do a lot of work for a big football club near to us and so many of the players have wraps on their G-Wagons and Lambo's (we don't wrap them) which is mainly for vanity purposes but once they've done with them they'll probably be stripped...

    Two tone roof

    Wraps do give protection but at the end of the day it's only plastic so will chip still, esp in winter when is more brittle but it's better to chip the wrap than the paint. But saying that in theory if you were to wrap a brand new car and drove it for 3 years then remove it the paint is as good...

    Two tone roof

    Well that's what I'd do it for and Its not a hard one to do. Some companies try to get away with using standard sign vinyls which are fine on flat surfaces but with the roof being quite curvy there will be a lot of stretching and heating involved so that would fail, it needs to be a true...

    Two tone roof

    Shouldn't be more than a couple of hundred pounds but make sure it's a good quality vinyl, if you were a bit nearer me in Harrogate I'd have done it for you.... Considering doing my all black SE SR with a silver roof to tie in with the wheels etc

    Poor radio sound

    I'll get on to the dealer next week and hopefully get that sorted then....thanks for the nudge in the right direction. With regards to the sound iv just come out of a top of the range Kia Sportage with a great JBL system in it so to start with it was a very noticeable drop in sound quality ...

    Poor radio sound

    Cheers for that, I'll look tomorrow to check the version I have, obviously not the latest even though the car is only a month old or has that update come out since the new year?

    Poor radio sound

    I'm a new SE SR driver (Company treated me to it) and really enjoying it too apart the the sound from the radio is shocking, it's really disappointing. Considering changing the speakers to try and get a better sound but not totally sure what size speakers I would need. With regards to the...
