So what have you done to your car today?

[dave the builder]

Jack, trolley or bottle, and a length of 2"x4" and a chunk of 4"x4" post.

Along with judicious use of a sledge hammer

Turned out that the (plastic) tailgate must have intruded about 6 inches and then popped back out again. Don't know how on earth the window stayed in place and in one piece. The bracket for the lock mechanism bent and a piece that links the handle to the latch dropped off so it took me a morning of poking and pulling to get the latch to release and then the rest of the day to get the bumper off and reassemble the (working) lock mechanism

Day 2 started with some exploratory thumps with an improvised slide hammer (with zero results). I then found some 4x4 to use as a beam & two enormous G clamps to use as pullers - it showed promise but the softwood 4x4 bowed 2" before without the metal moving. Take 2 involved a piece of 6x2 hardwood - that did the job.

"assembly is the reverse of disassembly" (as Haynes used to write) and so it proved. The poor battered bumper clipped back on and the car now looks OK (in the rain).

Surely the length of 2"x4" would be better used to beat the numpty who crashed in to you about the head until he paid for the repairs and inconvenience, plus a new , non blood soiled  length of 2"x4"

There would have only been a choice of one if you'd kept the original colour

I couldn't decide between FT23 TIT or FT23 NOB.

Don't cut anybody up. They'll shoot you in a heartbeat.

My old boss had 48 NOB on his Jag. His father had transferred it off  a scrap car in the yard, saying 'it won't be long before both bits are true'

This is true. When I housesat my mates place in Houston, my mate delivered dire warnings not to get into any arguments with other drivers for any reason " 'cos they've all got a gun. "  

And all the fellas I got chatting to down the local while I was there either concealed carried or had a gun to hand in the car. 

I don't think my mate cared about me, he just didn't want holes in his Range Rover!

Washed the Omega today for the first time in months. Stood back, had a look, and thought "thats still a handsome looking car".

Didn't get so much as beeped at once. Most disappointing...

Filled the Range Rover up ready for our trip to Devon with the tin tent.

Cleaned it again after a flock of Pterodactyl shit all over it, after I'd cleaned it.

They'll be back.

They know who you are and they know where you live.

They have no mercy.
