The important thing about vinyl wrapping is that it is properly applied. The most recent horror story I heard was about a nissan gt-r. There were cut marks into paintwork, broken brackets, woodscrews drilled in to secure bits, wiring broken etc. but if done properly it costs around £3000 and is reversible.

I would imagine that it is properly done, I doubt he would be stupid enough to employ cowboys to put it on.

Erm, you have heard of Balotelli, haven't you? This was the same guy who thought it was a great idea to let off fireworks in his bathroom, causing thousands of pounds of damage! I think you've underestimated his stupidity. ;)

No use by date on £25 of credit I've got, but I'm still getting the 'no longer valid' error just when they do a time-limited deal on a game I want :x

Any chances that they have it on an 0870 or 0845 number?
