looking for top PPF installer in Ontario
I am not sure how to edit this, or if it can be edited, but wanted to update this given the follow-up comments. I was not intending to suggest the removal of exterior panels to put on PPF was a good idea. Rather, wrapping inside doors and under interior trim edges etc. As I reread this, I see... -

My mistake in my description and use of the wording “panels being removed”. I was more referring to interior trim etc to wrap around doors and sills etc. I agree you would not be wanting to pop off exterior panels especially for something like PPF application. Appreciate the clarification. -

Car theft and carjackings
Classic line from the encounter was when I spoke to the detective and asked what happens to the guy who forked out tens of thousands of dollars in cash for a vehicle and the cop said “Unfortunately, there is no insurance for stupid.” -

Car theft and carjackings
I feel your pain. When we were living in the beaches a few years back my Range Rover Sport was stolen from my driveway at 4am (took them about 30 seconds). It was also recovered. They had re-VINed it, “changing it” from a 2014 to a 2017, rolled the odometer back significantly and sold it to... -

On the 2023 vehicles, do the initial free/included oil change visits transfer with ownership of the car if they were not used. The vehicle I am waiting for is used and has 6,400km on it. There is no record (as far as I can see) of the vehicle being serviced by the original owner until it was...
