    I wouldn't repair that either even if I owned the car and it wouldn't put me off buying one that had a scrape like that. It is on the underside where you can't see it on a bit of plastic that isn't going to rust and sods law says you're likely to do the same at some point anyway.

  • Hardly an issue - I bet the majority of cars have similar scrapes. That said I'm surprised it wasn't obvious to you that you'd ground your bumper when trying to drive over that dip.

    Thank you, I wasn’t sure if that’s what the case was or not. It is actually only that space where it happens, I’ve tried the two either side and nothing.

    I wasn’t sure if I had a case for it or not.

    With “not” being the answer, I’ll get it booked in to be repaired.

    Well done, I think you're the first person on this forum who's asked a question and accepted the answer despite it not being what you wanted to hear.

    Like others have said, I doubt they'll pick this up when you trade in. Good luck.
