School boy error, scratched my bumper!!

Post by waynedance »

Got to work and parked in front of wall, left in gear with engine running and you guessed it took foot of the clutch.

Got to get a paint man to repair the corner on the bumper, doh!!!

So come on who has done a similar thing? make me feel better.
Volvo S80 D5.........
C5 2.2HDi Exclusive 2003 manual (now gone).
2009 Renault Megane, the misses drive.
Had a 1988 BX 19TRS Auto many moons ago.
Forgive any spelling mistakes, it's the phone not me.

This really will make you feel better.

Thankfully I was in my least cherished car. Reversed up the lane to fetch a missing wheel trim. Got a phone call as I was about to get out, distracted.... failed to move the shifter from R to P (it's an auto)...........................

Sat in the hedge for a week after the Volvo, Laguna and Avantime failed to pull it out (it was properly stuck). Friend came up with his tractor and out it came... almost intact :-D

So don't cry over a scratch [-X :P
French is best.
