  1. So what happened in the end? :roll: well what happened in the end was,i got a c max but not the panther black one that i ordered. when i went into the dealers 2 days before the handback date the salesman told me that there was no way my cmax would be delivered on time as it had not even left the factory in germany yet. so i told him to cancel the order,to which he replied that i would have to pay a cancellation fee of 250 quid.i politely told him to go forth and multiply as it was them that was breaking the contract by not having my vehicle ready by the handback date even after three
  2. can anyone advise on the best way to get rid of a couple of scratches on the interior plastic of the drivers side door. i put my car in my garage (a tight fit) and when i went to squeeze out the door my zip on my jacket scratched the interior lining of the door. thanks smokesmate
  3. breaking news.i've just got my daughters car back from the local whizzpopper dealers. while it was there i got them to service it. then they rang me with a couple of small things that needed doing. 1 a rear wiper blade 6.99. 2 apparently both of the cv gaiter clips had come apart,cost of replacing these clips 107 pounds.(there just like 2 glorified jubilee clips). funny thing was though the car passed its mot in december these clips where alright then or it would have failed its mot and the cars only done 500 miles since the mot. so all in all for a yearly service a broken mirror and t
  4. i wish you'd told me this earlier andy,thats how i cracked the original mirror in the first place trying to fix it back on after it had come loose. smokesmate
  5. well i've got my answer this morning,whizzpopper main dealer new heated mirror glass 55 quid plus vat fitted. halfords not heated mirror glass 6.50 plus 1.99 fitting charge. my daughter still wants it done at whizzpoppers though and she wants to see the reciept as well,so i can't secretly get it done at halfords. kids don't you just love em. smokesmate
  6. you must admit though the c-max looks smart though even at this angle. smokesmate
  7. i've been told i've got to take it to the dealers on monday to get it sorted,so i think i can expect a bill of around 50 quid. smokesmate
  8. thanks Andy. just looked on the Halfords site can't see any stick on door mirrors though,but its a good idea if they sell them. do you know if these door mirrors are ok when it comes to m.o.t time. smokesmate
  9. i've just broken the mirror on the driverside door of my daughters whizzpopper corsa,its only the mirror glass not the housing.needless to say i am now in the doghouse with my daughter. as anyone any idea how much it will cost approx to get it fixed at a whizzpopper dealer. does anyone know if it will just be the mirror glass (heated) or will it be a complete mirror housing glass etc etc.i think its a corsa c-type mirror. cheers smokesmate
  10. thanks ravenger.never had a car that does this before,my c-max just gets better and better apart from the clock that loses time approx 2 mins in a week. smokesmate
  11. if my blower control is in the windscreen position to blow air over the windscreen every time i start my car the air conditioning comes on.should it be like this with the c-max or do i have a problem. cheers smokesmate
  12. got my 1.6 petrol c-max today,first impressions very good.i like the road handling,mpg 36 mpg on a run according to the trip computer. theres a little bit of wind noise from the top of the drivers door. the salesman says it doesn't have a perimiter alarm although i thought all zetecs had a perimeter alarm,is there any way of telling if its got an alarm without breaking into the car. i certainly need one where i live,the local chavs seem to think if cars are new they must have a sat nav to pinch. regards smokesmate
  13. thanks for the replies guy's. i still think i'll go with seat covers though. also thanks for the tip about seat covers with side air bags,i hadn't thought about that. cheers smokesmate
  14. my black c-max is now cancelled (still at the factory in germany) and i am now getting a sea gray c-max,the only trouble is its got humy light flint seats. i've read on this forum that they stain very easily so i am asking what seat covers members recomend to go with the sea grey exterior. thanks smokesmate
