No hesitation there :}. We never buy all those extras when we shop, so don't know why I am thinking about it now. Thanks for your reply.Don't go for the Supagard.

Don't go for the Supagard.
Definitely agree don't bother with SupaguardVery helpful, ours will be delivered in 10 days. Considering if we should take out the Supagard, never done that on new cars before, but living in devon means narrow roads. Last car we had, got keyed at 2 weeks old, would it have been better to have had this cover?
Thanks all
Thank youIf you want to enhance paintwork protection it's better to shop around after you get the car. There are people here who will have an opinion but it may be better going to a dedicated site like detailing world to get advice on the best options![]()
