Re: Porscheshop open day - Sat 21st March
Day started well and there was plenty of sunshine
at Porcheshop. Nice to enjoy being outside and chatting around the cars as well as catching up with friends.
Had to head off early for the Footie and the day went downhill from there. A draw wasn't enough and we left the Hawthorns a bit down. Got back to the car and the day was completed as a chap has reversed his 4WD into the back of the '44
Rear panel is pushed in and the tailgate lock has disappeared inside. Rear light cluster also cracked and will need replacing. Lots of rattling from the rear on the drive home
Only redeeming factor is that the chap waited for me to return to the car and gave me his details
Bad day

Shame 'bout the car mate, pleased that some people ave the decency to own up though - could have been so much worse.

Could have been worse at least he didn't just bogg off! Ensure that is Insurance Co. don't try to write the car off, make them pay for repairs. Certainly DO NOT let them have the V5C or MOT docs.PaulPSB wrote:Day started well and there was plenty of sunshineat Porcheshop.

Re: Porscheshop open day - Sat 21st March
Sorry to hear about that
It's the second time someone has hit the car whilst it has been parked if memory serves me correct
Now for the bright side of things
Saw you on T.V. last night
Match of the Day, in the seson ticket holders seats, just after the equaliser and just before Adrian C and Frank S
You just gotta get out there signing autographs
