Had some blooody fool ride into the back of my cab today! I stopped at a red light, then saw some idiot riding at full belt straight into my newly painted boot lid!! I got out to check he was ok, other than behaving like a big fairy, he wasnt damaged, so had a quick look at the boot, and it looked fine. When I got back home I saw it, there was a 10p sized dent in the boot.
The bloke was lucky I didn't spot it earlier or he would be handing over the 100 sheets I just paid out to have it painted!
Kinda takes the shine off of winning that trophy now! :-\

very nice indeed,

-
Gutted mate!!
Where's the body shop at and are they exp?? They done a lot to your car?

Nice edition of the golf+ this month. One to keep forever I think.
My rims are Steffan RS 14x8 front and 14x9 rear
The body shop is one in my local town, and he is really good and great value for money - he filled, smoothed and painted the boot for ?85 + VAT. And the colour match was first class.
Anybody in the north of Scotland want to use him, let me know and I'll drop you his details.
-
hmmmm,
cant decide what rims to go for next
extra wide 14s would be real nice,
deep dish, ohhhhhh nice :-*

Might get him to do a full spray for me then. Coming up on Sunday but on me own so I'm flying up wish I cud've taken car to him now :'(

They look great, handle fantastically, but a nightmare to live with as a daily drive, as they stick so far out and catch everything in the dish.

Hey Ads and Rich, I think us cab boys might have to give Marcus a girly visit ;)
Sorry to hear about the muppet going into the back of your motor, I think there's a lesson to be learnt though, always get the other persons details just in case. :(
-

Speak to Paul at Dubmeister. He does a good deal, and will get you exactly what you need. Things do take a while to come through, but be persistant and you will have something that little bit special in the end.

doing the drive a few months back i reversed the car into the stack of flags..........
i knew they were there i didnt know i was that close
i had the door open and i just nudged the car back so it started to roll very slow...... at the time my foot was on the clutch...... if i'd have had the engine moving the car it may have turned out bad..... but it just made a few small stone chip marks on the bumper and a bit bigger mark...... of which i can sand down and paint......
-

I got the boot lid back today, an excellent job (again) and well worth ?85 of anyones money (preferably the cyclists who hit me though).
The car should be lookinf nice and shiny again soon. Good job really as I was starting to become a bit disheartened with her recently having spent a lot of money and having things like this happen to her. I nearly felt like putting her up for sale this week!! I NEED SOME SUN!!!!
-
Hey Ads, when you get these kind of feelings, just look up at that show and shine trophy and then you'll remember why you do it ;D Keep the faith !
-
Yeah, just posted a happy pic in another thread to remind me of nice days and why I have a cab!! :)
