Here's one for you
« on: 05 January 2015, 20:47:44 »

As some of you know I now pass my 'working' week driving for a landrover main dealer.

One of the techs asked me to post a package for him this afternoon seeing as I was passing the post office anyways.

Turns out one of the other techs was carrying out substantial engine work to a disco and discovered a mobile phone jammed in between the engine and bulkhead. Phone was flat but after a few mins on the charger it fired up and said something like, 'locked - please email blah@blah.co.uk   

So they did.

Turns out phone was lost over a year ago and owned by - a landrover tech at a main dealer in London and recalls working on that car. Surprising that it has lodged there for so long and survived as well as being found by a fellow tech.

It's a funny old world, right enough!   ;D

Clearly a lightly used LR...

... probably due to needing repeated surgery ;D

Nice tale though ;)

You wonder how it stayed in...   ...but number of lost sockets (not always mine, in fact rarely mine) I've found in various engine bays...
