Can't believe it! On the way home from work some prat in a flat bed lorry on the M5 sprayed rocks and gravel accross the motorway. I have now gained 5 stone chips! 2 on the bonnet, 2 on the wingmirror and one on the wing. It was immaculate before that. Inconsiderate Ba^&ard. Is that bad luck or what, I think I'm gonna cry, back soon.

Thanks for you concern chaps. Does make you wonder sometimes if its worth owning a brand new car. I didn't seem to matter as much with my 182000 mile Mk1 Astra GTE. Now what was I doing ... oh yeah Blue or white, Blue or white, Stipes .. no stripes, stripes .. no stripes.

You are Unfortunatley in the "Zone" where it hurts the most, either as your selling a car or when you have just bought a new one! I had a week old car that suffered the same fate as yours the rage was beyond belief!!! All the best you could consider one of this chip guys but you pays your money and takes your chance since they are all franchises.

Well gents I have to agree, it really pisses me off when I pick up stone chips. Hence the order for Diamond White.
Its one of the colours you can touch up an get away with it.
You can't do it with Moondust Silver or Imperial Blue, just about escape with Magnum Grey. Had the Escort painted twice & the Focus once real pain in the Scotty!!!!!!!!!!
