Plan to leave here around 7am.

Mal.

Are you stopping off at ours then on the way?

Most prolly either catch up with you on the way, or meet up on the 42 some where.

Fiona only has a few weeks to go before our new arrival is due.

So I envisage plenty of 'Stops' along the way.

Ahh yes, no probs, just wouldn't want to leave without you! Will see you at the services or at the park if we don't meet up before. We'll be in the 220 hopefully.

Seems like I may make a trip over just after 12.30. Be there around 1.30 for an hour. Maybe I'll find some of you there & introduce myself & the motor (still with rust spot!)

Well, i must be the most unlucky person in the world........ I went to asda to pick a few things up after i left only to return to me car and find that some muppet had reversed or fronted into my front

The body kit is fine just a few scratches and the filler on the side they hit me is fallying out. But they must have hit with some preasure as the wing in now slightly bent and requires a new one

Oh no

I have to say we didn't see you leave, we came back because we thought you might have wanted Dan to look at your car with its running problem and saw you had gone.

Might be worth contacting Asda to see if they had the CCTV pointed on your car.

I hope you enjoyed the rally anyhow, and hopefully we will see you at some more shows in the summer.

Good to meet cz214sei (sorry I didn't catch your name) too, your car again looked really nice.

Sorry if I missed speaking to anyone, I walked around and tried to spot all the cars I recognised.

I will get on with putting the pics up in a bit.

I did enjoy it

I was walking round with my mate and i couldnt see anyone

I did ask asda if they had CCTV and they did, the only prob was was that i was parked behind a trolly park and couldnt see anything

Looks like another trip to the body shop for me

Heres the damage...

Now, i cant replace the wing as ill have to take the skirt off which is not a good idea.

See? Looks to me that it just needs pulling out. Hoping it wont cost the earth

Gutted for you.....

Hopefully it won't be too much work to put right. Its always the same isn't it? You get something just right and then someone/something comes along and wrecks it.
