Some advice for my first car.
Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2007 4:20 pm
First off i would like to say hello.
Just signed up and need some advice. i bought a 6n polo in metallic racing green from an old lady who had it from new. its hardly done any miles and was a real bargin. the only problem was that somehow the lady managed to get the car stuck under her window ledge?!?!?! god knows how.
Basically the two passengers side doors (5 door car by the way), have a big dent running along them about 10 cm below the window line. its a pretty clean dent but the paint has chipped. ive been out today to get some quotes and the cheapest i got was £350. thats more than i paid for the car. i know that i will have to spend money but i think that it would be cheaper just to buy two new doors and swap them. the garages said that they would have to spray half the car to match the colour. Is this correct.
Basically if anyone could give me any advice or know of anywhere in the Romford area that has two matching passenger side doors then let me know.
thanks.
