Guess what the wife just did....
My wife is not known for her car control.
This morning she got into her Fiesta to defrost it.
She started it in gear with handbrake off and careered straight into the back of my STI!
So if anyone has a rear bumper for a 2002 STI then please mail me. WR blue even better!
Or if anyone knows where I can get one from then post details here.
Women drivers lower risk? My ****!
Cheers,
Korky

The rear bumpers are the same as a WRX. IIRC around £150 and maybe already colour coded
good job it wasn't the front bumper and Bargeboard covers nearly £1500 Tony
LOL
Sorry I know I shouldn't laugh but it made me think about the other night - me and missus had been down the pub. I was drinking and she was driving
On the journey home (we're in her 10 y/o MX-5 which has tyre walls that came straight off a tractor) we were debating whether I should let her take my scoob out for a drive.
I was saying that while I thought that she was a good driver, I also thought that she couldn't park for ****. She of course denied this and responded with "I'm one of the best parallel parkers ever!!!" - it was at this point that she mounted the kerb and back off again while parking outside our house

Women are a liability
Mine's ok to be fair but I was sat in the petrol station the other day when a woman driver attempted to reverse her Xsara around a pump to get the nozzle on the correct side of the car. She made such a pig's ear of it she ended up reversing over the island upon which the pump was sat. Unfortunately the ground clearance under the side sill was less than the height of the island so when her rear wheel dropped off the other side there was a nasty bang and one reformed sill.
All this to save stretching the hose over the car.

During the fuel crisis, just as I'd finished filling up my crappy old Escort with 4 star, I notice a lady has left her H reg Pug 305 (or similar) engine running while filling, and is smoking a cigarette. I quickly run into the shop and am browsing the snacks when I overhear same lady having this conversation with the attendant.
"Will I be ok filling that up with 4-star?"
*attendant looks over* "hmm, H reg, do you know if it has a catalyctic convertor?"
"I don't think so, not sure"
*looks a bit closer* "Can't see one, you're probably ok, did you have much unleaded left in the tank?"
"no, I normally fill up with diesel, but you've ran out"
My Son called me at work the other day and said" Dad mun just pulled out from the shop and there was a big bang from under the car ,what should we do.??
