Spotted while out today on the A127.

GIL OK, or maybe she aint!

The boot has 2 suitcases in it, and is tied down, but very wide open with string.
The cases fit well within the boot, so they are not causing it not to close. And the string is VERY slack, which would not be the case if the catch was knackered, they would have done it closer.

So......

Is the latch knackered, and they just did a poor job of tying it closed..

OR

Was there something on top of those cases, which is now on the A125 or M25 somewhere lol

You decide!

Snazy

Or London pronounced with an Essex accent... lol

Yeah down by the half roundabout.

Are Gil's knickers all over the M25 lol

Clarebabes

I dunno, but you're going the wrong way to be going to the M25, aren't you?

Clarebabes

BTW, be a great numberplate for my Mum

Snazy

Its coming FROM the M25, and whatever was in there is no longer there, so.... if she used the 25, it would be on there lol or before.

Clarebabes

Oh, I get it now. It must be the Essex genes in me making me thick

Snazy

Essex produce Denim ?? Really?

lol no worries, I was not very clear, thats what it is

Clarebabes

Yeah, didn't the Falmer factory used to be in Rayleigh?

Snazy

lol dont you start gettin clever with me

Clarebabes

Sorry! I couldn't help it But you started it!

(BTW 18,000 posts! Hurray!)

The suitcases are probably fouling the boot support brackets/hinges!

The white bit on the RHS immediately above the rear lamp cluster is the arm that holds the boot lid.

Similar on the LHS, but is obscured by what looks like the spare wheel.

Of maybe you are right, an Leanne Battersby is lying on the motorway somewhere

mb

Snazy

From the way the boot lid was bouncing up and down, almost closing im reckoning that there was something in there.
The hinge could indeed foul the luggage, but I still reckon something went amiss lol

pwhittle

And cheap too, there can't be many people around called OK

Dunno, my initial thought was broken latch. anything else stopping it from closing surely would have gone on the back seat?

Clarebabes

Stop with the sensible answers. I don't think that's really what he was after!

Snazy

oiiiiiiiiii!

Im not after anything Just wanted peoples opinions. Come on, thinking someone has lost something is fun aint it? Shaudenfreud

It's BMW's new patented aerodynamic speed sensitive stabiliser. A bit like the one on Porkers that raises up once you hit a certain speed.

This is the economy version. When she slows down the string will wind in & lower the boot for low speed cruising.
