Hi all,

Sent my finance documents off on Monday for my new lease car along with my original license as requested (Audi Finance require the original as apposed to photocopy).

Email today from them to advise they have successfully received all my documentation APART from my license!

As far as i'm concerned they've lost it. They have apparently checked all envelopes and the post room and nothing. I now cannot get a hire car to cover me while my current lease goes back leaving me stranded with no transport. I'd also have to pay 20 quid for a new card and wait at least a week for it to get here; potentially delaying the delivery of the lease.

To say i'm pee'd off is and understatement.

What can i/should i do?

So you've just watched someone die... even a powerfully-built director with a goatee beard won't be on their top game and may well eff up the interview. That's harsh but true.
You must stop, phone the coppers and then the company.
Only then do you hammer frozen sausages into the lawns of the berieved.

I've just watched the BRDC F3 races. Lots of action, some good overtakes, the early leader didn't even get to smell the podium, lots of tows with outbreaking at the end of the straight: everything F1 should be but isn't.

Funnily enough I failed on the same word - amazing considering you'd already helpfully pointed out the incorrect spelling, and at least one of the other options was obviously wrong. Much easier when there's a choice of spellings though.

Normally when you look for info online you only find the bad points. I bought a brand new Discovery Sport in november and so far its faultless. It has done everything ive needed of it so far, and mine does venture off road and pulls a trailer ever so often.
