Well I've been away for the last 13 days, working away in the delights of Sunny Peckham
Normally my car spends that amount of time sat in the works yard, but as it was only 8 days old I decided to leave it at home, for safety reasons.......dumb idea...very dumb...
one teatime as my wife embarked on the school run, she had a phone call from a girl in our office, she had a problem with a customer, with smaller kids screaming in 1 ear, customer trying to pull as fast one in the other, see slotted her Disco into reverse, spun it around on the drive only to forget that for once I'd left my car on the drive..
So 1 cracked lower nearside bumper,1 smashed lower rear light, 1 very upset wife, 1 very mad husband.
TBH damage is not that bad, Farnells are sorting it out, my wife is still very upset and I may milk it for a little longer, sometimes in life you just have accept that they are just lumps of metal/plastic and that anyone of us could have made a silly mistake while rushing around.....but still going to Milk it
I took ownership of my Evoque on the 11th November and due to work and the above, I've actually had in my possession for 5 days.
