Surely your wallet is lodged behind the counter at the local Jag dealership :D ;D
On the subject of moth I seem to get plagued with very small moths here just as I did last year.


You could buy an Audi, where they charge you for one of their staff to acquire all cash, cards and anything else that might be of value in your wallet. Including the wallet itself. This charge also include rubber gloves for when the bouncer ejects you from the showroom for looking poor....
I've often thought I'd like to win the lottery and wander into one of these showrooms in dirty jeans and a tee shirt. What fun.

I always quite enjoyed parking my battered old Merc at the front of the MB dealership by the showroom and then wandering round the back to the parts counter.  :)

It was far more fun when the parts counter was in the showroom.


Now that nobody works on their own newish Merc, the dealer group can hide the parts department out of sight in an industrial estate. In the next town. Next step is the service department, as you can't be seen to do work in fancy temples of German engineering might ;D

I really enjoyed pulling up in my battered 3.4 mk 2 Jag at Howells dealership in Cardiff😂 always a nightmare for the poor employees. When I was about 12 I went with my uncle to pick up a part for his mk1 2.4 he was a crazy driver and howled into the car park which was right outside the windows👀😂 we didn’t stop quite quickly enough and hit the wall at low speed. We got out and my uncle said oh! I’ll order a new wing now too seeing as we’re here.😂😂

Which is why I don't use Jag dealers for anything other than parts.

Keep an eye on that, as it can be a sign that they have laid eggs in the house, especially if you have woollen carpets or clothes.  The larvae eat the wool.

According to pest control chap we had out a few years ago, they like dark corners, behind furniture, or in dark, wardrobes.

Much to the annoyance of sales staff at Milton Keynes, I do that when I used to go there for parts, and because the parts people would leave you hanging on for ages, would go and sit in the new shiny ones ;D

The new dealer in Northampton keeps the parts department round the back, well away from the shiny side of the building.

Found a colleague's wallet in the khahzee as I was locking up the office yesterday evening. I guess he's in for an economical weekend. ;D

I know I have "an emergency" £30 in my drawers at work, for those times I forget to take in my wallet (being a Jaaaaagggg owner ;D).  Trouble is, I've not really been in since 2019 ;D

Back in the 60's I had a mate who was a builder, he saved up, in cash, enough to buy a Ford Zepher.

He wandered into the Ford showroom in his builders gear, cash in a paper bag, and got ignored until he sat in one.

That'll be a nice touch for the people who clear the office out when you all permanently work from home :D

I quite liked the look of the last Zephyr/Zodiac...... the one with the long bonnet and stubby boot.

Mk3 or Mk4.....I think.

I often look like this but minus the lottery win. :-\

                  Last Zodiacs were the Mk4 3.0 litre v6 which were almost identical to the Ford executive 👍

Similar thing in our local Merc dealer, shabby looking fella went in to look at the SLK roadster when it first came out, he was spoken down to by the staff who'd judged him to be beneath them, he made sure they knew about it when he bought one each for him and his wife from Merc Manchester  ;D

The company has (foolishly) spent a shit load of cash on new buildings (rather than use the 5000+ ones it already has) that were due to open late last year.

So they feel the need for everyone to use them.
