Anyone used them before? I just took the car through the car wash (something I swore not to do with this car) and now I have about 5/6 scratches that weren't there before!!!

I have put in for a free quotation but just wondering if anyone has used something like this before?

if its just light scratches, get some t-cut (or better) on it with a can of elbow grease, even clay bar it, should come up a treat

Tried the SRP on it earlier but it didn't help

Some of the scratches are even through the paint!!

you could try building up the scratch with a paint pen then polishing it back down.

and to top it all off I just found a stone chip in the wind screen I thought this car was a better idea than the Alfa because I wouldn't have to spend £1500 a year fixing it/keeping it on the road . . . I may just run into a wall on the way home and cut my losses.

I have had absolutely no luck with cars in my 3 years of driving! perhaps its time to invest in a motorbike and life insurance haha

Tryed Jump starting it who knows how many times, tryed bump starting it even tryed a tow start and the thing just doesn't want to fire into life again!!!!

To be honest, if you can;t get it firing, then is not the car fault. Time to take it to a profrssional.
