While I want my car to look as perfect as possible I want to drive it and I don't want to get upset when it gets damaged so I have done things to make it easier to look after.


For example my car has carpet on the sills so if passengers mark it with their feet it is not as bad as scratching leather, however I have gone for leather for the centre console as it looks a lot nicer than leather and I feel it is less likely to get damaged by shoes etc.than the sills are.

This car like others done in that workshop has leather

My car is matt Black underneath, so if it does get damaged from a gravel road it can be touched up without hassles of perfectly matching the colour as matt black is pretty easy to match. I will not go out of my way to drive on a gravel road, but often driving around here you will find a section of road being repaired that is gravel for a fe km's and I would rather drive slowly over it than turn around.

I am thinking about paint protection film to stop stone chips, door dings etc. But I am also thinking if I don't drive it for shopping and when I do park it ty get spots near the end of the carpark and walk further hopefully I will not get any damage that cars typically get in carparks..
