I miss my Polo

At the start of september my mother reversed her car that was parked next to mine and swung it straight into the side of my car, She didnt stop and kept going. typical!
she wrecked both doors on drivers side and damaged the front and rear wing.
Any way her insurance have covered it all and its currently all being fixed and having a re-spray. feels like i havent seen it in ages and starting to miss it.
I have been given a brand new 1.2 polo hire car(it was registered the day i got it! 57plate with only 15miles on the clock). which is okay. but its slow and is so basic inside.
Got a call saying my car will be ready on the 19th, will get some picks up of the damage soon.

I missed mine on the way home from dropping it off at the trimmers (I was only about half an hour away at the time
)

I dropped it off on a Monday, they were off the next Monday and Tuesday due to the bank holiday and I picked it up on the Friday.
So about 8 days.
Price was £1621.50 - that was for Black Leather/Red Alcantara seats and doorcards front and rear.

The doorbuild was seperate, it required a lot of stitching to get around it nicely though

did you have the doorbuild with the standard dotted trim at first?

The doorbuild was done onto the standard doorcard yeah, but it was sprayed black to blend in(ish) until I got it trimmed
It wasn't the dotted trim though on the build though, it was filler.
