Hi Guys,
I have a 59 plate Golf & the lacquer is blistering and flaking off !. I have googled the problem & read various forums, has anyone else had this problem and is it a manufacturing issue ?
I bought the car @ six month old from JCT 600 York.
I read that some VW dealers have repaired free of charge.
Any help please

Hi, I'm EX Mototrade and sounds like the cars has a 'smart repair' or paintwork at some point in its life. I've worked at various garages who would smart repair bumpers (and more) for stone chips, scuffs and scratches, with a poor quality repair but that isn't noticably to the eye...

VW paintwork shouldn't 'really' laquer peel. I've never seen it and bought and sold lots of various VW's.

Hope this helps...
