You're going to need quite a few paint pencils for that...
It is a known problem with the white and the black paint, those colours are rather vulnerable on the PHEV. My grey one is still unmarked after 27000 Km.baldboater said:When I Picked up my Phev it was raining heavily and as such i could not do a full inspection as i would have liked (i know the old never buy a car in the rain etc) a few days and 1000 miles later i washed the car and found a small amount of what looked like tipex on the car (i have a white one). Using some secret chemicals and luck i removed said tipex and found a small scratch that looked like some one had tried to cover up.
I am not saying that the dealer had done this but you never know. I had a local company come and touch it up ( the guy only charged me £30).
Now after 6500 miles in 10 weeks the front is peppered with small marks. I shudder to think what it will be like in 4 years when it goes back to the lease company.
