Following an incident between a short-sighted,colour blind mororcyclist :rant: & the back door of my Giulietta I've just picked up a loan car whilst mine is in the bodyshop.

They've given me, I can hardly bring myself to say it, a very small car made by the company formally known as Datsun. :eek:

It is truly :vomit:& just to rub salt in the wound it advertises the garage on the back. :eek::eek:

It going to be a loooooooooooooooong week.



Stll on the bright side I'm only allowed to average 50 miles a day:cheese:

I got a Citroen C2 courtesy car last year... if anyone knows the hill on Cleveden road in Glasgow, picture me trying desperately to reach the top of it in icy conditions in a car fitted with a hairdryer motor for an engine.. I think the bus driver behind me picked up his paper at one point...

Hey Craig, you had better not be slagging off my wee Nissans :tut:
OK after 10 days I may have been a little harsh. I've discovered that this car actually has traction control & a button to switch it off :wow:

I haven't tried it yet in case those 80 japanese sea-horses get out of control :cheese:

Not Looking for sympathy anymore

SHE'S HOME!!!

Got my baby back today & she's perfect again.:inlove:

Big thanks to the guys at Eastern in Broxburn especially the paint shop guys.:thumbs:
Apparently they are now world experts in 8C Red. :lol:


Had a quick tour round as well & they were getting the place all ***** & span for Sunday.

As predicted it was the paint that caused the main problem. It took a few gos to get it right.
