I don't believe it dent already

Picked up my new Octy2 1.9tdi estate elegance from work last week, looking good in Island Green metallic, however some mindless person has put a dent in the rear passenger door, its not even a week old!

Not impressed

To make matters worse I can't use somebody like Dentmaster to put it right as it is to close to the edge of the door.

independant Bodyshop quoted me £205+VAT to fix!

Why do people have to be so careless?

Just on another note the cars seem to out the factory on Bridgestone Turanza ER30. They seem to give out a lot of tyre roar, will they settle down at all after so many miles or what?

Has anyone else got these tyres on the new Octy2 estate? same problem?

Keep the faith

Yeh I've found them a bit noisy at times, more noticeable on roads with surfaces that i call more concrete bases(sorry dont know techy word) such as M50,North Circular London

I have the Turanzas on my Furby, and don't rate them at all.

They are noisy, and squeel around corners more than expected. They offer no rim protection and I've only done 7k and I think they'll need replacing by 10k

Probably go with some Pirelli's next time.
