The car started beeping after leaving the driveway so I had to stop and use the seatbelt to strap it in.

Delivery was successful. No tears in the seat fabric or scraped plastic fittings.
A bit of dust that cleaned off adequately.

Drove the car back home. Left the TV there. (disambiguation)
A couple of years ago I hauled 6 or 7 car loads of junk to the recycling depot in my pristine '18 STI. There is 1 small scratch on the sliding door over the centre console, that's it. Didn't enjoy the process, that's for sure.

When the F-RS was new, before all the mods there was an electric recycling drop-off at the community centre literally 1 block from my house. Loaded up the trunk with old computer stuff. The nice people there proceeded to unload my trunk, and when I closed it there was a nice deep scratch on the top of the rear bumper. Oops, why should they give a crap. Actually the morning I went to work after picking up the car I was parked next to the wall and came out to discover a roofing contractor literally covered the roof of my car with tar specks. Took it home and cleaned with tar remover, but from then on stopped being a perfectionist with the car. Glad it wasn't a $100K+ Porsche.
