 :surprised: :scared: :surprised:

I nearly screamed when I read that. The dealer washed my car a couple of months ago even though under strict instructions not to, i spend hours correcting the damage.

The plus side to it is they gave me the £200 service plan half price as damages  :happy2:

My thought entirely, just had it serviced and asked them not to wash.
