COST EFFECTIVE UPHOLSTERY REPAIRS
As with exterior bodywork, minor damage to interiors can happen all-too easily, which might have a negative effect on the car’s value. In the case of loaned vehicles, accidental damage can also incur eye-watering penalty fees. We have heard of certain hire/lease firms invoicing customers for complete new interior panels, at main dealer price levels, to remedy a small scuff. After the unfortunate hirer has coughed up the extensive penalty fee, an inexpensive localised repair may be commissioned, permitting the car’s owner to profit from the hirer's misfortune. Interior trim renovation can be surprisingly inexpensive. In this issue, Rob Marshall looks at how a DIYer might carry out the most common repairs from home.
