I recently had an alpina wheel refurbished, it had previously been done so the colour wasn't known . When I refitted it, it was a slightly different colour. S**t I said I'll have to do the other 3 to match. Without delay my wife said no, only one, you can only see one side of the car at once. How :cool: was that !
If it aint broke don't fix it!

Classic womans logic. Try telling her to stop buying shoes, she can only wear one pair at a time.

I am in no position to comment having grand delusions on spunking all our wedding money on an enourmous LED tv. Mrs86 however seems to think there is a limitless supply of wedding money all the ideas she has had, so we are both as bad as each other.

lol....thats funny!

But I knew a guy that couldn't decide wether to have white or silver alloys on his AX GTI ( back in the day ) so he had white fitted to one side and silver to the other....stating exactly the same reason as your Mrs!

It never bothered him and he ran it like that until he wrote the car off a few weeks later!

let us guess, he blamed it on the fact that the silver paint was heavier than white and the imbalence in weight just pulled him off the road? :)

My colleague's Mrs asked him where do we buy our duck from? She said 'Do you get it from the fishmongers?' - Her theory was that because ducks swim on water..... :mad:
