Did anyone ever see the BMW you could buy in South Africa? To prevent car jacking it was fitted with a flamethrower under the each of the front doors. Operated from the dashboard...i thinking importation may be in order...

I remember once - when I had just passed my test and had my little 1.1 Saxo - I was working in a pub at the time and had my car outside up the road a bit. Some bunch of drunken kids had kicked the mirror off when walking past - you could see the mark on the door where the rubber had come off their shoe!

you can borrow my anti theft device just leave window down and fat roj will do the rest

Variantealta · 5th March 2008, 13:22

Top marks to fat roj...although he does look quite cute really...i'm sure if you were attempting to half-inch his wing mirror he would show you differently..but still nice dog!

At least its easy to spot a chav nowadays. They wear something with Henleys written on it.

Next time you're out on the town, just watch. The drunken idiots will undoubtebly be wearing these garments.

Another car 'clipped' my drivers side mirror today, £255 fitted like others not worth claiming on insurance as excess is higher than that, interestingly the other car drivers side window smashed when his mirror hit it, so I don't feel so bad about it.........

No no - the chavs always wear Lonsdale.

It's a catch 22 isn't it.
Do we leave the mirrors down, as the first line of defence against passing cars, or zoom them up, at the risk of a dented side panel.
My Dad, now 88, has had 4 mirrors nicked from his little Corsa.
I have always paid for the replacements, but its beyond a joke now.
Why a Corsa for goodness sake.

Someone was trying to break away the "CIVIC" inscription from the boot of my car. He didn't succeed and broke the last letter "C", so now it look like it was "CIVIL" :[. This happened in the middle of the day!!! What a perfidy!!!

I suggest you carefully remove what is left.
A hair dryer and some dental floss should do the trick.

(Who would steal a Civic badge... it is not like we are driving Lamborghinis here is it....!....)

Unknownsoldier · 6th March 2008, 08:12

Civic badges naturally peel off because of the curvature of the body panel, it was probably someone catching it on their coat in a car park, I caught mine a few times before it was replaced.

Honda dealers should add this as an element of standard equipment

installed right next to fire extinguisher in the spare wheel compartment

Unknownsoldier · 7th March 2008, 09:58

I definately would pay extra for it, that and SAM's mounted on the bonnet.
