Funny moment today
Discussion
Whilst at CN i was sitting waitng for my car to be done and decided to go downstairs and watch. I approached the mechanic and said "jesus, i only brought it in for you to look at the brakes".
His face went white with horror because he had taken almost the whole front of the car off, all the little venty things, the service panel etc.He was in the process of plugging some machine into it. He said "i was told it was the heater".
When i looked again, it wasnt even my car, In fact it wasnt even an Elise it was a Silver Exige.
I will get the hang of this Lotus ownership eventually..........

I asked what was wrong with it when I picked my car up the other week and was told that it was having a new engine (after 2 years!!!) and it was out of warranty so the owner was footing the bill. Nasty

Ouch, there was a fairly wrecked Esprit near the workshop the other month, looked like it needed a fair bit of work on the front end from my casual glance from the showroom (I was paying more attention to getting my keys, lol)I asked what was wrong with it when I picked my car up the other week and was told that it was having a new engine (after 2 years!!!) and it was out of warranty so the owner was footing the bill.
