    Best thing to do is pull in and let them pass.
    And give em a taste of fulls plus hella spots*. Subtlety is wasted on many people.


    *of course, by spots I mean real spots with a spot beam pattern mounted in a position conducive to spot lights and not fog lights with a fog light beam pattern fitted to a position conducive to fog lights that most people call spots. "I dint ha me fog lights on. Der spots ya dope"

    Yeah it's the same here but they drove in parked it there and went off lol! They are at it now on the ramp, I reckon it'll fail on a CV boot that I didn't get around to changing anyway.

    Edit; I have to say I'm the same with lunch I take an early one and do a longer later shift as I'm not a morning person!

    Id leave a 307 there too lol. Car failed on a brake line, I upgraded to 312mm and the line was slightly diff so doesn't sit perfectly in the holder. I have a spare one though that's the correct line just never fitted it. Also failed on broken headlight tabs that happened as a result of a gobsh**te reversing into me last year. Didn't cop it until now :(.

    They seem to be very inconsistent with those types of visual checks for 'sharp edges' as they call it. My bumper was split and held together by cable ties and there wasn't a word said!

    The last time I was in getting a cvrt this lad on front of me was at the counter and the guy starts listing of what was wrong with the van; there was track rods, brake lines, exposed wiring that had be tidied up, brake pads, discs etc etc. The owner says to the guy what are brake pads. The guy tried to explain it and then said to the owner give this fail sheet to your mechanic and he will know what's wrong then. Owner turns around and says ah I'm handy enough with mechanical stuff so ill do the work myself the cvrt guys face was so funny. Didn't know what brake pads were but is handy enough with mechanics :pac:

    Tried grabbing the cable with a pliers and it done exactly nothing so the grille and aux fan has to come out seemingly!

    Then a tedious job to pop the sprung catches!

    One of the E39's I was looking at had stuck or napped cables, A lot of force brought it up though but I felt like I was breaking it.
