The wife is losing faith with the car, not because of getting it through MOT's but for a very superficial thing in the lacquer coming off and large sections on the roof have gone and more affected areas are appearing on the pillars.
I've not seen it on other cars before but when I called in to Bexley Audi for a part I noticed they had an A2, same deep red with lacquer peeling everywhere, it looked in a very sorry state with cracked windscreen as well (they said it was their "don't care runaround car"!).
I'm wondering if it is just this colour affected, the mechanic at the dealership said it might be worth contacting Audi?
Otherwise are we looking at an expensive fix, I'd imagine a bodyshop would want to strip it back for a complete re-lacquer? What would that be £1000? For that the car will have to go so is there a diy fix?
