T212 facelift, 2013. A few toys including pan roof, 19" rims, Harmon Kardon, nappa, privacy glass.
Have a 210 estate, 2001 year. Carried some wood in the car in a way that i thought was very careful...but clearly not.

The result is that I have 6/7 small dents in the roof lining above the front passenger - best way to descibe it, is it looks as if it has been stabbed with a biro. The dents have not broken through (i.e. not a hole)

Is there anyway of removing these dents without removing the headlining ? I also have a "scored" mark on the sun visor, again any thoughts ?

If it makes any difference the lining is grey.

Would appreciate any help possible.

Thx

Adam

In time most of will go away on its own, if it is plastic you can use a hair drier but do not get it too hot, but as said it will get less when the car is parked in the sun. thats if we ever see it again

Cheers Malcolm, might just by a UV lamp, won't sort out the headlining but might cheer the old gal up.

10 out of 10:D:D memory's flood back, stiletto's were also good for keeping the front seats tilted forward in a Mini to give one a bit more room in the back whilst star gazing out of the back window;);):lol::lol:

In the days of stilleto heels, I had electric reclinning seats from USA cars, they lowered so slowly the owners of the shoes did not know what was happening.

That was a long time ago

That completes my mental picture of you Malcolm - Mr Smooth. Now me, well I was always impatient;)

Daeths, don't feel left out when you get to my time of life reminiscing is the only thing left, well nearly:D
