The checkstrap is missing from my drivers door (No, surely not, I hear you say ;D), so, when I get in I just sit there and the door closes itself perfectly.
When I get out, I walk away from the car and, after a couple of secs I hear it shut, turn round and plip it. It's quite a neat trick once you're used to it :y

Doors are almost always OK it's just the bloody boot. They grab the handle inside the boot and close it in 1 go   :o  I tell 'em both and the wife every  time they close it!!!  >:(  >:(

I really don;t know what I did wrong ina former life to be cursed with such blasted neanderthal offspring.....

for YEARS i've been trying to persuade them that the door only has to stay on ONE side of the car when they shut it....   not burst out the other side....

so help me, one of these days I'm going to gaffa tape their fingers by the catch plate and see how softly they try and close it then.......


when i'm old, okay, even older than i am now.. , and they have to transport grandpa Max around, you can bet i'm going to use every ounce i have left to slam their blooody space ship doors SOOO  hard.....

Almost everyone slams my doors, maybe it's because they're so heavy they think they have to.....

Most of the time it's ok, she gets caught out on a hill though.  I don't mind if I'm not in it at the time.

It's not the kids that are the problem for me, it's the adults >:( ie- wife and mother. It comes to something when you watch your car settling back onto its springs after someone has closed a door :-/

Its the ones who manage to somehow wedge the seatbelt buckle in the door frame before slamming with all their weight that annoy me.  >:(

A few years back in my Senator my Mum managed to force the buckle into the holder/catch and break it!! So I bought a new one, but instead of putting it on the passenger seat I thought I'd have the new one - afterall it's the one that gets most use - and my 'old' one went on the passenger seat. The following week she managed to do the exact same thing!!!!  >:( Apparently though it wasn't her fault.  :-?

Little fella loves the car, esp when I overtake, he mimmics the Vroom!

'What does daddys car go?' ..... ' VROOOOOOOM'
'What does mummys car go? ..... 'Brum Brum'
I normally reply 'No, mummys car goes 'put put put' ' Doesnt go down too well for some reason.  ;D

LMAO

Soon as we get ready to go out, he never stops 'Daddy car, Daddy car'
Tantrum time if we want to go out in 'Mummy car' and he doesnt!
