My load space cover disintegrated this morning. The lever that you pull to release it snapped out of the casing and the springs and pivots flew out all over the place.
The plastic housing where the tongue that locks it into place is cracked so no chance of repairing it. I know they cost a fair bit new, and I do't think warranty will cover it 
Has anybody got a spare cover they want to sell? ebony interior

common on those for the handles to fall apart...
Get into your dealer and push for warranty...

G... should be a warranty job mate. Had mine swapped not too long ago. The dealer was very accommodating and even made me a mug of coffee and supplied me with an excellent set of new wiper blades.

My father in law had his replaced under warranty - Lookers Bishops Stortford - took all the bits in a bag and they immediately ordered him a new one.
