If I get one more pikey looking fat scummy wife beating scuzz ball come knocking on my door asking if I want to get rid of the 'old BMW' in the driveway, I'm going to batter someone.

Admittedly, I've got the arse today because my Touring failed the MOT, bottom nearside balljoint and emissions were a bit high, but it's hardly as though it looks like some abandoned shed. It's been off the road for a while, but parked mostly out of sight and kept washed and waxed.

Pain in the arse :evil:

Mate at least they have asked you, when I left my car parked in front of the house because some ****** decided to re-design my front driver's side wing. The batasrds lifted the car off the roadside never to be seen again!

I get the old "Want to sell it mate" comments when I use my car. I tell them what price I would let it go for and they soon shut up. :D

a packet of monster munch and a tin of irn bru is a bit too steep for some though Dave, a packet of space raiders and some cheap lemonade is more like it.

Times are hard Chris, I even said I'd take a packet of refreshers and some tangy toms but that was, and I quote, "Far too much for a 20 year old snotter"

Just make sure you don't leave it there and go on holiday for more than 2 weeks - saw this thread on PH a couple of weeks ago and it is scary reading...

If memory serves, the original poster gave the car back to the "rightful" owner (he was a solider I think).

Although that is what my memory tells me, I'm sure one of the Ford deviants here will know the score (I got the story from somebody here).
