The black one is 5 minutes away from me and if my memory is any good i'm sure the owner is a smart repairer, well it looks like his house anyway.

If it is him i dont think he would have had it long and if anyone looks at it make sure you check for smart repairs and refurbishing.

I have seen many Chips Away repairs and to be honest I have not been impressed, especially with silvers.

Find a good bodyshop and ask them to do the repair asking them to blow in a smaller area as possible.

This will be about the same price with a much better result.

Any dealer not allowing you to carry out checks by the AA or RAC is most certainly hiding something so if they are refusing stay well clear.

Surely 20 MCP could have been released before dvlas's auction records began (pre 1991) as was my dads 20 MBP.

Just because it doesnt show on a current vehicle doesnt stop it existing on a retention certificate does it?
