I know how tragic is that, boot was loaded with tiles and adhesive so could not get to jack or spare wheel when I picked up a nail on the exit from the industrial estate.
Needed some new rubber on the front as I was on the wear bars so krook fit it had to be.....
Took three goes to explain why you should not jack my car from the sills, then watched them use the ramp and stands, building a sweat rapidly by this time.......
Anyway ended up with a pair of bridgestones on the front for 160 notes, about £40 more than my usual place.
Still you pay for convenience.
With the tiles its been an expensive hit on the Mk3 funds today, blown half my 421 money  :cry:

put tarp dow, get a big bucket and pray it goes your way lol. Done that enough times when my dad roped me in just as he twists and pulls it from the wall  :shocked:

Could be worse though, my fish tank pump sent about 5 litres of water all over my mums shiny wood flooring after i set it up wrong  :rolleyes:

DIY plumbing disasters are my speciality, fitted a new bathroom last year and it was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life and almost cost me my marriage :angry: :cry: :sad: :smiley:

Not too traumatic with the neighbours they were cool about it, the loss of pressure killed my already very sick boiler and cost me my new Car funds, hence the new Mk3 :grin:
(forgot i had moved the pipes when i was screwing the floor back down :laugh:)
