I was chatting to a mate this morning saying my golf was still at the dock in Germany. He told me of someone he knew who had an A5 sitting there waiting to come over to the UK and there was a heavy hailstone storm. It was so bad it damaged the bodywork and apparently had to go back to the bodyshop to be repaired.. Gulp !

Anyone else expecting their car to be shipped looking at the weather in northern Germany at the moment?  :laugh:

Shh! why did you have to put that worry into their heads? :evil:

Apparently it's been snowing in Emden [I assume they all ship from there?]  :undecided:

Chillax :wink: take a deep breath, everything that is good eventually comes to those who wait.  Might be a few months down the line tho.  It will be worth it so don 't give up. :smiley:
