Windscreen Stone Chips

I have had the RRS since July and have now picked up my 3rd windscreen stone chip . I also have a BMW 330d and only have had one in 150,000 miles ! Have I just been unlucky with the RRS ?

I could ask the same question about my bonnet dent, and subsequent stone chips on mine, oh and my alloy wheel scrapes.


Never before have I damaged an alloy wheel, had bad stone chips or had a car damaged... this RRS is unlucky! L319 D4 HSE

The damage to the alloys can be categorised as "added character acquired offroad" when you come to sell! Don't know if the chips on the windscreen would get away with it though! Does you insurance cover you for a replacement?

I think they must be unlucky cars - I've collected so far:

- cracked front number plate
- ding in rear bumper
- scratch on driver's door (wife's fault, honest!)
- one scuffed alloy

I've never had so much damage to a car in one go. I'll sort them all out before I sell on, no point worrying about them now I don't think.

It's the first car I have unintentionally damaged (cannot count damage incurred offroading the RR and the Defender) - ding and scratches on the tailgate, scuffed nearside front alloy and a long scratch near the tailgate release button just found today. At least nothing has fallen off yet - but then I have only had things fall of the Defender and not any of the modern Landies I have owned! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
