Rejcting a Car
Discussion
Yup, I was waiting on the morning of Sept 1st for my first Defender 110 double cab, and out it comes with a dent or two on it and some bad paint marks on it.
So I refused it, until a manager said, what do you want as compen, so I give him a list and I drove the car away on his word.
I got the car redone mint, and I got £3k worth of extras.

So... whats your question then? I thought you were asking how to reject a car. It seems you have already done so?the cars had a very bad roof paintjob with a lip all the way around the edge of the roof where the paint has been masked off, there is a aprioamate 18 inches of paint shringage on the roof.

All the checks and double-checks should give you real reassurance. And even further still, Audi operates a 30 day exchange policy - so in the unlikely event of an irreparable fault occurring within 30 days/1,000 miles (whichever occurs sooner) – we will offer you an exchange. This does not affect your statutory rights.
It's worth noting that the majority of cars will have some paintwork rectification done between their initial production and them falling into the hands of their first owner.
What is acceptable and what is not - is a long, long argument.
End of the day, if the dealer says they don't think it's unacceptable you'll need an independent assessment of the quality of the paintwork and the nature of any rectification work done/quality thereof.
If the independent assessment says the work is substandard then you have your big stick to hit the dealer with.
If they don't - erm...
