Smokie: I am now formally asking for you to lock this thread. I can't take any more of this.
This afternoon I was filling up with Petrol at the Murco garage in Hayes, Middlesex. As you know, the roads are covered in salt and sh*t and having an important business meeting tomorrow, I thought the Subaru could do with a spruce up. So I invested in the car wash.
Cut a long story short, the brushes wrapped themselves around the small rear roof spolier (it's the estate version) and started lifting the car up and down. Something had to give and eventually, the spolier came away with an almighty crack. It had pulled the bolts through the bodywork. Fortunately it is booked in to have the rear end fixed after the telegraph pole incident, so I'll somehow have to work in the cost of a new spoiler too.
BTW if anyone doesn't beleive me, if you pay the postage, I'll gladly send the pieces anywhere in the world.
I firmly believe the Commer is in someway behind all this grief. So let's lock the thread and see how it goes. Can't be any worse.
