Title: inappropriate breakdowns
Post by: The Green Reek on Thursday, 19 November, 2009, 04:59:20 AM
Hi,
After my self inflicted windscreen mishap at Mildura, I have been waiting for my new windscreen to arrive.
I couldn't wait anymore so my spare (sports T top) roof went on. I love it better than the F4.
But
I thought I would drive the car to work for the first time to show it off.
With half the office watching as I took off the throttle cable broke. >:( ??? :P

I imaging everyone has wonderful stories of how their ride has let them down at just the wrong moment.

Please share.
Peter
