......where's my coat.....Winter coat
My previous tyres went to around 2mm before I changed, since fitting the RS3 they feel better already, even when it is this cold there is a lot less slip/spin.
I don't care about cost effective, all I'm interested in is keeping mine dent free and on the road.
Sadly, as I found out two years ago, sometimes it's not even your fault, as in, when someone runs into you.
Spot on Wighty!
A decent PDR specialist should be able to sort that out no problems. Gutted for you.Talk about tempting fate and being prophetic.
Today on my way to work Mama Deer, Papa Deer, and Jnr. Deer tried to eliminate themselves in what was obviously, a suicide pact.
As I drove down a narrow lane, I happened to notice in my peripheral vision, something moving fast through the trees towards the road.
I immediately jumped on the brakes and stopped just in time as Mama and Papa deer burst through a gap in said trees, right across the road in front of me. Luckily I missed them both. (It's a bug**r trying to get blood off of the paint).
Bambi obviously couldn't have made his appointment at Spec Savers though, as, running about five metres behind Mom and Pop he didn't see my bl**dy big Silver Mercedes and promptly ran straight into the n/s/f wing and door. Leaving me with a rather hefty repair bill, and a nice coating of hair/fur.
I've a cheek to call him Bambi, he was only a hand smaller than Mom at the most.
My passenger door now can't be opened without causing the two edges to grate against one another which causes all the paint on the leading edges to rub together. I'd rather not give the bodyshop and painter more work / problems to deal with if I can avoid it. So, it'll be staying shut until it goes in for repair on Monday.
I wonder if the beggars were insured?

I suppose I shouldn't really complain too much, it could have been a hell of a lot worse.

That’s awful for you and so sorry to see your poor car. I suppose if you hadn’t been concentrating and driving so well, you might have wiped out the whole family and done a lot more damage to the car so well done for the anticipation.Talk about tempting fate and being prophetic.

Glad everyone's OK, including the deer.
It could indeed, could have been John Deere...
