Hi,
I collect my new Kuga, Panther Black Zetec on 2nd September.
Today I looked at two new Panther Black Kuga's in dealers showrooms as I have not seen mine yet.
I noticed when looking along the body sides that the paintwork had the orange peel effect.
As this is the first Black car I have owned is this what to expect with a black car that is mass produced and sprayed by robots.
Many Thanks
Elder

Have no noticeable build problems with my black Kuga. Only trouble is it shows little marks such as by the door handles and when cleaning. Looks lovely when its clean and the wheels are sparkly. Lovely looker. BK.

Beware of orange peel efect it can sometimes mean damage to the paintwork. check out the pro's at http://www.detailingworld.co.uk for the causes.
