Just come out of Argos pulled out of the parking space in the touring bang thought what the hell is behind me would you believe it was one of those low posts,it had popped the bumper straight out of the runners and was hanging down,managed to put it back in but still is not right.
That was bump number 1. :cry:

Not going to fix it right now as I have a Mec 2 kit to fit on when I have the time,I was annoyed with myself all that weekend.
Jan used the convertible for work on Tuesday for the first time this year.And someone ran into the front of it.It was done by one of our none speaking English trying to sort out if he has insurance through a translater but don't hold out much hope on that.Not done any damage to the front of the bumper,but from the side you can see that it has pushed it out of alinement and cracked the paint.

That was bump number 2 :cry:
Saturday morning in Waitrose's carpark a young lady who's insurance had only been running for a hour as she hadn't long passed her test pulled straight out into the side of the 5 series touring.

That was bump number 3 :cry:
Hopefully the convertible and the 5 series will get done on the insurance I don't want to have to repair them myself as all my spare time is spent on rebuilding the B6.Don't hold out much hope of them being done before Billing,but will be there in them done or not.

Still no luck with our none speaking English friend,the wife's got he's registration number so will ring the insurance now and let them deal with it.Taking the 5 series for a quote tomorrow for the repairs.I've got a spare bumper so may put that on the 3 series touring at the weekend.
And as for the B6

it's a B6 3.5s number 19 of the 62 they made,have had it in bits for 2years now doing a total rebuild can see some light at the end of the tunnel.Keep saying I'm going to start a thread but if I do I shall spend more time on here than in the garage.
But that's another story winkeye
