Absolutely no grip on the granite kitchen tops after a front tyre blew out. Unfortunately made contact with a mug and damaged the rear end.



Luckily, had a spare!

Do they leave a pool of molten chocolate where they have been parked?

Looks like you parked on a hill and did not have handbrake on. Should have used wheel chocs. Hopefully it was not one of the more valuable Aero-cooled cars which have been so hot recently that supply has melted away. I do have the names of a few dealers though in my Rolo-Dex.

I've heard some 911's can be flakey.

The new ones are so much better it’s like choc and cheese.

They can be a bit vulgar but the right colour looks good parked on a Quality Street.
Not a 911 for me. I prefer a chocolate Boxster.

Because the accident happened After Eight The insurers wouldn't get it recovered so had to catch a Double Decker home. Frankly I had hoped they would have been Kinder. Looks like it's going to be a Rocky Road getting settlement.

If you do repair it be careful. They can have problems with choc absorbers and Kit Katalytic converters.

If they repair it, it'll cost a Dime or two.

Heroes if they do.

Well, hopefully the OP has digested the sad news of his loss.

On a more optimistic note, Spring will come and it might be time to try something a little more exotic.

With Easter just around the corner, why not move to a Cadbury's KoenigssEgg??

Carrying on the Topic, was that a Drifter accident.

Everyone is always a Hero when they are driving on a Quality Street.
