Rattle in the boot !!

[stu247]

Had this rattle in my Chim, something was rolling about..driving me every time I was giving her dixie out of slow roundabouts....!! Only got the car two weeks ago so I thought, right, time to sort this out !!
Removed the spare & jack etc...no good....still there...
Darn I thought, maybe it was one of those half eaten Twix's in the door that one hears about...

Drove it for another couple of days, noise was deffo coming from the boot, so, back in there again for another root around....found a small gap on the right hand side under the tank..squeezed my hand in.....BINGO......bloody golf ball !!

Of course once I went to grab it...the darn thing rolled away up the other end

Anyway, to cut an already long story short, got it out eventually and found an un-opened birthday card under there too....no money in it though...!!!

So if you every have any strange rattles or lost any birthday cards, you know where to look !

Well, you have got a Chimaera so I guess finding a stray golf ball is hardly surprising!!

A not uncommon scenario it seems

Spare wheel and jack, don't think later Chim's(after 99) had these luxury (extra weight) items !!

Needless to say, I have not put them back...
