We have here with us a brand new Toyota Vios today. From our experience of working on countless Toyota(s), we always had the impression that Toyota had the best factory paint job. Likewise to the car we have with us today.

Upon arrival, we did a walk around the car to inspect for any obvious damages.

We spot some dirt and road grime from daily use.

Watermarks were visible on the glass

Some bugs or droppings from were found on the paint as well

Overall, we found no visible swirl or paint damage on the paint. Being so, we had extra time on our hands and we decided to pop the hood. Our first impression, why is the engine so dusty!

As we looked up, why is the underneath of the hood also so dirty!

As we looked closer, we spot more and more contamination.

The engine cover was filthy!

Other covers had a thick layer of dust as well.

The dust was thick enough for a smiley face.




We got the engine to a tip top state, as if how it should look like for a brand new car.

The underneath of the hood is spanking clean now.

Engine covers and other covers were restored to its factory look.

As as result, we did some interior cleaning, engine cleaning but no paint correction as the paint was in tip top condition.

To answer all together, mass manufactured cars like this all stored in ourdoor, fully uncovered storage facilities. No upkeeping will be done, meaning to say, once assembly complete, they park the car there, leave it there till the end of that production batch, then only ship out to every dealership where they also store outdoor. The car may be new, but stored outdoor for 6 months unprotected can be very damaging.

Even Park outside, engine compartment should not be too dirty and also means did not do good job cleaning before releasing the car.

Just like my wife's SUV, the lower areas all clean and smooth, but roof full of over spray.....:banghead:

Oh! I thought Ipoh.....hhahhahahha:rofl:
