The little bit of metal that holds the rear number plate lights in has fallen off! :mad: Had a look and the two screw holes on the left and right are virtually gone with a bit of rust and the middle one is not too brilliant either! As these are part of the boot lid what can I do? Can it be really strong glued in? :cry: Also, whilst where on the subject, is there any simple third brake light mod that can be done whilst being in this area? Perhaps drill holes in the little bit of metal for bright LED's? :wink:

Its peter crouch!

Lazy git!

Better yet! Replace the ignition switch with a starter button! :)

TheIt's getting serviced on the 11th Aug at PSI. He does camber adjustment for £45. Get it done then methinks. How do I check the ball joints?

Feeling hot hot hot!

Full leather interior too! :)

Got a wierd problem I thought I'd run by you lot! My pass front tyre has just being replaced (both fronts) because they were due and a bit of un-even tyre wear. What is confusing me is that (this is coming from the tyre fitters) the outside of just 1 tyre was worn, the drivers side was perfectly even. If it was tracking/camber adjustment, I've being told it would be on both sides, not just one?? What could it be?

def aircon, got em in mine.

Thats just un-necessary! He might be just big boned! 8)

Plenty of magazines for that! Including Top Gears. Think they've got a good mix already.

Needed coolant! Have verything else in my boot! (oil, tow rope etc!)

You know how long it takes to fill the C's tank up!

She could hang on to the big spoiler at the back whilst your...... ahem! Besides! It was a 'Sporting'!

I think I'll just pretend to use the phone! :wink:

Is he kissing the car, or humping it?

If they hadn't set fire I could believe that it wasn't scripted up to that part. But they don't hide the fact it isn't scripted. Either way its great entertainment!

Cheers! Keep em coming!

Got a copy of this from a teacher that bought a mini cooper Convertable for her retirement, she's having no end of trouble with it. She's actually just sent this to BMW headquarters. It's really good! Dear Sir, Let me tell you a story: Once upon a time, after saving for many years, a trendy old gran became the proud owner of a brand new Mini Cooper. However, her delight and excitement was quickly extinguished when she discovered that the ‘service’ offered along with her lovely hot orange Mini convertible was to say the least, lukewarm. Undaunted she persevered with her increasingly strained relationship with the BMW dealership and gladly accepted the apologetic bouquet, but would really have preferred a real apology and no further repeats of the flagrant incompetence. Unfortunately, matters did not improve. Latest episodes involving the dealership began to verge on the farcical and the trendy old gran began to lose her sense of humour. Let me tell you the latest….. Early in June the lock on her glove compartment jammed and on returning it to the dealership was told that a new glove compartment was needed. This was ordered and fitted, unfortunately when gran returned to her mini it was minus the lock. Gran was dismayed that the car had just been returned in this way with no explanation so promptly telephoned Lister Park BMW. An excuse of ‘the lock was faulty’ was promptly proferred and assurance given that the problem would be rectified and a new lock re-fitted on Friday 30th June. The vehicle was again to be picked up from ******** Primary school and returned the same day. Thursday 29th June ansaphone message on gran’s ‘phone from LP BMW to say the parts were in could gran ring to make an appointment to have them fitted. Funny thought gran according to my diary it is being picked up tomorrow anyway. This was followed by another ansaphone message telling gran to ignore the first message as the parts were not in and to ring to make another appointment. “Thank goodness”, thought gran, “I feared senile dementia.” Friday 30th June at ********* Primary School and guess what? A man came to collect the Mini to have the glove compartment fitted. Gran explained the two messages from the previous day and the man promptly ‘phoned to check if he should take the vehicle. He was informed that there was no point as the part had not arrived. The man returned to base very embarrassed. Time passed and by Monday 10th July there had been no contact from LPBMW, so in the now accustomed manner gran ‘phoned them. No, the part hadn’t come in, but it should be here today or tomorrow as parts are usually delivered in 7 to 10 days. It was ordered on Thursday 29th June ( one week after BMW knew that they had delivered the Mini back to gran minus a lock). Gran said she would ring back on Wednesday 12th July and check on progress. But the man from LPBMW made a surprise visit to gran’s school. Gran was delighted! But, not for long. The man was clutching the original job sheet ( fitting of a glove compartment). Gran’s alarm was noticed by the man who thought it might be a good idea to ring and check if the lock was in and that maybe they had just forgotten to ring. No the part wasn’t in and LPBMW had no idea why they had been sent. The man departed greatly embarrassed, as he had been the second driver on a previous wasted journey to ******** Primary School. Today is Friday 14th July and gran is not really enjoying the enforced constant opening and closing of the convertible roof as she trots around in her Mini in this lovely weather. All gran would like is some decent service like that offered by her previous garage, but really has given up all hope of that ever happening. There is of course always an up side to times like this. This farce has kept gran’s colleagues, their family and friends very entertained and can’t wait for the next episode. More recently she been requested to serialise this on the internet which of course she is happy to do. :lol :lol :lol :lol
