    I just love shopping. And I guess I don't need much so try to justify it by buying stuff for the misses as she hardly has much as she has only been here for 10 weeks or so. I love her modelling them for me :-)

    I'm sure that she is worth it.

    Post a picture of your car too, would like to see it.

    Cheers
    Good idea buddy. I think I have bought enough now and especially stuff that is future proof. :-) See the car below mate!

Some time later I was the manager and responsible for sourcing vehicles. A salesman ordered his new pride and joy, something he had been after for ages, in a specific colour and with all the "right" badges and go faster stripes. He was due to travel south from Yorkshire to collect it the following day so I parked it under the security light in the yard where it could be observed by the night staff. Unfortunately it was also right next to the waste skip which spontaneously combusted during the night, having previously had some dodgy chemicals disposed of into it, which were not intended to be mixed. The car was a total write off and my phone call the next morning more than a little embarressing.
    So sales guys don't have all the luck. It's amzing how many 'new car mishap' stories I am hearing about.

    After I got there, had had a quick look and confirmed their opinion that it was in fact a write off, the manager of the dealership told me what had happened. It seems the lady ower of the car had come to collect her brand new car and when attempting to turn right on to the main road from the garage forecourt, had managed to get herself hit, not once, but twice, first from the left and then from the right by the two other cars I had come to give estimates for.
    Iain.
