MY 07 Vantage - Tracker and other Qs

[bogie]

bit of a bone of contention the bubbling paint ...cant be classed as rust as most the panels are not even metal LOL

definately one of the problems with modern paints on plastic cars, Lotus have a similar issue...

my car is 5 years old now and ive got bubbling paint on more panels than not ...havnt bothered to see a dealer yet as I know the story

Yes I assume the correct term is oxidisation as I think the doors are aluminium... but you knew what I meant

Bit worrying that you have it all over your car. I wouldn't expect it on a 4 year Focus let alone a car that had a sticker price of £90k or so

Also have found and activated the tracker. It is a Eurowatch tracker and would have had tags but they're long gone. It can be paired via bluetooth to my phone. Which is a bit inconvenient when it goes into the garage (I know I can pair it with 3 more phones).

I just call them and put it in to service mode.
They ask for where it is so they can keep an eye out for abnormal movements.

Oh really? Didn't realise you could do that, thanks for that.
