"Can I borrow your car just to pop round the corner" she said, "Save me getting mine out of the garage" she said, "No problem darling" I said, "i'll only be five minutes" she said, "No problem Darling" I said, "Thanks, see in five" she said, So i sit down to watch a bit of telly, as she drives off i here this loud bang, but think nothing of it, who would, i live in a quiet cul-de-sac. After thirty minutes i'm starting to wonder where she is, with that i hear the old girl coming round the corner(the car i mean, not the wife)!! She parks the car neatly on the drive and comes in, with tears in her eyes, "i'm really sorry" she said, "what for?" I said, "It was an accident" she said, "What was an accident?" I said, "I thought i was miles away from the kerb" she said, "What do you mean" I said, starting to get a bit worried, "Well you know those new wheels youve just bought for your car" she said, "What those £1000 pound brand new Titans" I said, " yes, I have caught them on the kerb" she said, Remember the loud bang, well so was I by now, "You better have a look" she said, So i did, after passing out for twenty minutes i took another look, "Just caught them" she said, "What on, a bloody ACME wheel shredding machine" i said, I will post some photos, but its still to painful to look yet. So if anyone knows a wizard wheel re-furb firm i would forever be in there debt. Oh and a good solicitor. (just kidding darling)!!

Personally I think woman who drive fast cars like T5's are great drivers and should be commended for their cool headed, totally civilised driving habits :D quote from Mrs Nb the other day: ' I was 'playing' with a quick Golf on the way home doing...erm (quietly).... 90'ish, he kept following me round things then he stopped playing and I saw some blue lights behind us and I thought 'sh*t !' and slowed down and luckily the police car overtook me and carried on !' .......hmmmm

Or the mother, who only drives when she's the only one in the car. Wonder what she gets up to in the T5. Or, in that fact, the father... who I clocked cruising happily in 3 figures on the M5, wanting to play with anyone who even looked like they were overtaking him, even in the 40mph spec'd roadworks.

Hi, Marwen; he charged me £160 to remove the old paint, clean them up & re-finish them in Graphite. I drive a black N reg. 855 with an 'Evolve' decal on the tailgate. See you. Cheers, Chris.
