And I am too old to learn the facts of life

Why do I feel you are not telling the whole truth here Malcolm. :shock:

You've worn the teeshirt, wrote the book and and now live off the royalties :D

No I haven't posted any yet, I will soon I promise.

I actually managed to kerb one of the alloys last night. I was quite upset that I did something so stupid so quickly after buying the car :(

I had gone Christmas shopping and had driven up into the multi storey car park without too much of a problem as I was driving in an anti clockwise direction, so it was quite easy. However on the way out it was a totally different story as I had to drive clockwise and for some stupid reason I was too far to the right and the rear driver's wheel hit the side of the wall. Honestly the noise it made you would think the car had fallen apart :shock:

My spatial ability seems to be crap. When Keith went to work this morning he asked me to turn the car around in the drive while he is at work so that he can get the Porsche in easily. I managed to move it, but it's still facing the wrong way :shock::shock::shock:

You should buy a few spare wheels lyn and keep them under the bed,,then every week when you go shopping you can swap one wheel over or two as the case may be.

Then sell them kerbed ones off on Ebay

It could be an expensive idea. But it will 'kerb' Lyn's threads about her wheels. :rolleyes:

The problem is that the A Class is as wide, if not wider, than the C Class and of course you can't see the front of the car so it's kind of a guessing game for me right now :shock:
