Yes, brakes, gearbox, engine, supplied, funded, maintained and repaired by dad .And what makes it worse is this is the second bloody time. First time was un-licenced driver in company car. The company got a surprise visit from me and some guarantees (I don't do promises). At least this time the offending driver has admitted his in-attention, as you do when approaching an intersection controlled by a series of bright red stop lights.Dave

I got rear-ended in December 2011 by a white Subaru in Canberra. Got my Honda back on Christmas eve - went to Moama for hol in January 2012 - got rear-ended by a white Subaru. Insurance company couldn't believe it. I just said to a cut a paste on the last one. Two new rear bumpers in two months. The repairer said would you like me to book you in again next month!Terry

I had a grey F6 several years ago and got Liberace'd 4 times in 3 years. The worst was something small and white and Korean hitting me at 70 or so while i was stopped waiting for the car in front of me to turn R into a side street. And that was with lights on when the engine was running! And the R8 got front ended by a (white) Subaru. I was parked, having lunch in a Restaurant about 400m away and the Subie reversed into the car. Tried to say I ran into him! I still have the photos of his car trying to fit two cars in one parking space (mine). His towbar and towball were almost intimate with my front naughty bits.My 150 build - http://www.pradopoint.com/showthread.php?27423-A-Random-approach-to-a-Bluestorm-150-GXL-D4D-automatic

Booked in the car to have front locker installed and rear locker pneumatic seal replaced. Advised the installer at the time the compressor would need replacing as well, it was struggling to get up to speed and was blowing fuses intermittently. Picked up the car 2 days later and they said they couldn't fault the compressor. Drove out of the car park , switched on compressor to check new locker, fuse blows. I was in traffic and it was near impossible to turn around so. Thought I would just change the fuse AGAIN and all would be good. Popped the bonnet when I got home and the power lead of the compressor had melted and compressor motor completely gone..... Called em up, " I'm sorry sir but it will be a couple if weeks till we process the paperwork and can book your car in after that..."

So how was the Paul Kelly concert Kav ??? Lol. Yep know where your coming from. Had this woman who insisted on kicking the back of the wife's chair while we were flying over to Singapore, wife been the polite person she is wouldn't say anything so I decided to ask her does she mind not kicking my wife's seat, then I get told by the husband she was doing nothing wrong so I told him to pull his head in or his foot would be shoved up his clacker and he'd be sitting on it tapping his own ar#e.. Funny thing at the end of the flight turned out they were good friends of father in law, the lady was so nice to my wife for the rest of the time, we were even in the same bloody motel in Singapore....... (We had in laws with us as well but had no idea who this lady n man were n vice versa).... Cheers SteveFace lift 150 Prado V6 auto. No mods yet
