I'd be a bit aggravated if found out after bought car...
Interesting video. I would how frequent a repaint happens without it being documented. I'm guessing that if it is repainted before it is sold, it doesn't have to be documented and made a part of the vehicle's history?
The car restorer guys go nuts trying to duplicate every chaulk mark and other assembly line marks to increase the resale of the car.Reminds me of a thread I found a lot of years back, I can not for the life of me remember some of the details. Dude was from England I think, and had the cleanest car in Europe.
He bought a Nurburgring edition GTI, I think, or maybe a Megane, or Clio.
Dude was insane, special ordered it and found a .5mm paint drip on the roof of the car and very nearly gave it back. A friend talked him out of it because the rest of the car was good, and they could fix that issue. He spent like 3 weeks detailing it before driving it. When I say detailing, I mean like pulling the carpet, seats and trim out and polishing the paint under the carpet.
Granted he wasn't doing this for resale, it was just his OCD on stuff. He was extremely upset that there was a paint marker swipe inside the car, under the trim.
