You should speak to Peter Sharp (Sharpie), the mechanic working on his car wasn't even that young !

The most important thing you probably should have told them is that if they have to top up the gearbox oil at all, not to use anything other than the proper Toyota V160 oil. Suprisingly (NOT!) not even a lot of Toyota garages know that.

i'll be sure to ask them when i pick it up.
What will be the consequenses if they have monged it?

Monged ?

Cass · 21st March 2007, 12:06 PM

Sorry army word for done something silly

"Monged" ... I like that.

My brother is always coming out with weird new words which they use in the Navy. Things like "Bimble" and "Dib Dabs".

Cass · 21st March 2007, 12:28 PM

LOL bimble = doing something/walking slowly eg.Bimbling along the road.

UltraFlynn · 21st March 2007, 01:19 PM

My brother's definitions are a little different and Navy-centric.

"Bimble" - To go wandering around a place. (Probably looking for a prostitute)
"Dib Dabs" - Any local currency is known as a Dib Dab. (Currency is generally used for paying prostitutes)

Good news and bad and good news.

Good news the car is fixed and runs like a dream like it lolled out of the factory.

Bad news the guy that picked it up was not my mate who i trusted to drive her and was one of Maz's mates and decided to drive into a large stone on the motorway and smashed up my front bumper again.

Good news i'm getting a repair bill and handing it to him so my bumper will be fixed and sprayed properly.

UltraFlynn · 21st March 2007, 09:34 PM

That sounds like all good news then mate.

Cass · 21st March 2007, 09:45 PM

Nope as the car will be like that till the end of April now till i get back.

I i'm driving down to see Martin in a wee while with the car looking like poop and just got offered to have it in a show here in Ireland for the annual carnology car show the ones behind tv's top gear cars but looks like its out aswell.
So its not all good.But mostly lol
