    Car to go back for fourth time

    Fix dry edge on inside of all doors
    Refit side skirt
    Shoot some paint into a small area under front left door

    Assessor said paint isn't perfect match but none of them are even from factory

    White apparently is the better matched paint from factory, blues, silver and reds the worst

    Geez, with todays technology you'd think it would be getting easier to achieve good colour matching. When is your saga ever going to be over!! Dry edge, missing paint and refitting parts is just woeful. No excuse for shoddy workmanship.

    Yeh, that's what the repairer is banking on. I think more people notice but don't speak up.

    well the taxi was great for lugging heaps of boxes (i moved places on the weekend) and i didn't have to worry about scratching up the seats... it was a great workhorse

    super soft suspension also helped me transport delicate stuff without breaking anything

    but i'll let someone else love it now... and judging by the smell i'd say it's used to getting around a bit

    That was a big plus then. Not the smelly part though. So what's the verdict............ hope your baby is up to scratch!!
