MOT fail

[Little Red Devil]

just thought id let all know that the little red devil failed today.
windscreen
wheel
lights
exhaust
handbrake (does anyones acctually work lol)
and a loose steering column.
so
iv sorted the lights and steering column
the exhaust later
the handbrake in the week
and just leaves the goddamn windscreen i think FIAT do it on purpose!

Whats wrong with the wheels and screen?

whats wrong with the windscreen??

if you need a new one, check your insurance policy covers you for a new windscreen and smash it

i had to pay £50 excess when my windscreen cracked and i had more fun taking a hammer to it to finish the job off

 

[GhostWKD]

just remember to check covers windscreen before smashing

Poor little red devil, hope it's back to tiptop condition soon .

 

[dave]

gaz why did you hammer windscreen

 

[Neofolis]

Probably because it was quicker than chucking small stones at it as hard as he could to make a small chip and then driving 300 miles at 100 mph to make the chip grow into a crack.

 

[Helz]

But small stones and speedy driving sounds like more fun

 

[Neofolis]

And would probably look a little more authentic than the result of hammer/windscreen interaction.

Sorry, forgot to say, sorry to hear about the MOT failure, hope it doesn't prove too costly.

 

[Helz]

Well could pretend it was like that Toyota advert - was parked on the drive and the window cleaner fell on it

 

[GhostWKD]

possibly a high speed kamikaze pidgeon?

 

[Neofolis]

I prefer the "parked on my drive and someone vandalised it during the night" scenario, but that would probably raise the insurance premium for everyone else in the same postcode area.

 

[gaz.d]

gaz why did you hammer windscreen

cause i have no self control

its like roadkill, you still poke it and prod it with a stick even after your know its dead

ugh, brings up vivid merories of me mashing a magpie against my windscreen and mauling a pheasant with my front bumper. <shudders>
