Did it happen to you ? What would you do honestly ?

Van,it’s going to be very stressful for you the first few times you take it to a shopping center. New cars are like a magnet for shopping trolleys and clowns who don’t know how long their doors are. Good luck with the dealer.

Don't live in the city but do visit from time to time. This is a good reason to have running boards on your vehicle so other people open their doors against the boards and not your doors. I also have an Ironman rear protection bar with side bars to the rear wheel arches plus bullbar. Only unprotected area are the front fenders.

my Patrol was scratched slightly while the dealer fitted accesories pre delivery, they where going to send it off to the panel shop to get professionally fixed, they where not going to give me the vehicle with a scratch. ended up inspecting it myself they just agreed to call it even if they threw in some touch up paint and a set of headlight protectors.

Yes, I agree with you. I'll wait for the touch-up finish to see if it looks like new ... or else.
Cheere,

Indeed mate LOL ... Stressful feelings when you get some damages from others in public areas :BangHead:
I don't mind much if I get some scratch or dent after I've the car ... However the brand new car must be in "brandnew" condition when I take it in possession .
Cheers
