What colour did you guys choose? (People still waiting for delivery of car).
I ordered in early March and was called 1st April to say it's on backorder. So guessing be around September. When they sold it to me they said grey but I see it's put down as Gun Metallic. Has anyone seen this colour in the flesh? Nice?
Also opted for some body and interior protection. Apparently they spray it with one time solution that protects the outside from dirt, bird poo and tree dirt that stays looking polished and inside if there are spills you can wipe off.
Body and interior protection done by the dealers...a complete rip off. Half the time they don't even put it on and they just charge you for it.
Bird poo...no coating will protect against that, it's acid and will still burn through the coating and it will still etch your clear coat/paint.
If they do actually apply it to your car then it'll probably only last about 6 months,
I bet they didn't tell you that if you take it through a garage car wash the coating will be ruined. Also taking it to one of those £5.00 wash and scratch places will ruin it too.
You'd be better saving your money and arranging for a proper car valeter/detailer to apply a proper coating to your new car.
Yeah sorry it was coating not spray. I am kinda weary now and may call to cancel that. And yes sorry bird poo is acidic they said it can easily be removed if done straight away. This is what they said the coating will provide.
Here is a summary of the permanent protection available for
your Nissan Qashqai.
The following is included:
Exterior Protection - The vehicle is given a deep clean before applying
two layers of protection to fill the pores of the paintwork and bond
together to provide a high gloss finish which protects the vehicle's
paintwork from the harsh environment that surrounds it, such as UV rays,
oxidisation, atmospheric fallout, acid rain, road salt and other
contributors. The advanced polymer sealant is professionally applied to
your vehicle using the most up to date technology, and it creates an
invisible and durable high-gloss barrier that helps strengthen and
protect modern day water and solvent based paint finishes from the worst
that the elements can do. There is no need to wax or polish and it is
easier to remove bird mess, insect fluids and tree sap etc.
Interior Protection - upholstery is impregnated with a resin based
formula which won't wash out, and protects against spillages of coffee,
tea, milk, soft drinks, juices, water and other similar liquids from
permanently staining your fabrics and carpets.
Dirt can be either vacuumed or wiped off. The invisible barrier helps
reduce friction between the fibres prolonging their life. This allows
the fabrics and carpets to retain their natural texture and appearance.
InteriorGard complies fully to COSSH and ISO 9001 regulations.
VinylGard - This creates an anti-static finish on the fascia and other
interior surfaces, keeping them flexible while protecting and
maintaining their appearance. This professionally applied finish bonds
to your car's interior surfaces and forms a tough protective barrier.
The coating prevents the sun's UV rays from penetrating the vinyl, so
there's no fading or cracking and the matt finish reduces reflections
from the dashboard on the windscreen.
After Care Kit - Includes shampoo, glass cleaner, alloy wheel
protection, scuff remover, bird lime neutraliser spray and micro fibre
sponge.
Key Finder - 2 separate key fobs with a reward on (House keys, car keys
etc. - 3 years cover).
No key owner details are given to the finder or any third party,
guaranteeing maximum confidentiality and security. Over 90% people get
their keys back within the first 3-4 hours!
