Ruinous expense - part 1

[Captain Jack]

I remember having to change my N/S low dip bulb on the Honda Crappord every few months! It was always that side - never did figure out why but I must have changed the lightbulb there about 5 times in 9 months of ownership.

I've been seeing a one-eyed 54-plate Mondeo every morning for at least the last two weeks in the dark....his 'remedy' is to drive with the front fogs on

[Doggy]

Stupid, irritating, but all too common. Try this one for size:

I passed one dozy cow every few days for weeks last winter, driving a Uno with no offside dip beam or sidelight. Finally, the remining dip failed and I saw her trying to navigate the A6116 in the dark on the one remaining sidelight, perhaps unsurprisingly with a half-mile tailback behind her.

I guy that used to work here had the use of an Ashtray Van and after both dipped beams failed he drove on the Motorways using FULL beam he thought that was ok rather than bother us for two new bulbs

He then put petrol in it a month later and killed it.

Another lad down-changed into 2nd gear at 70 MPH in the other 'nice' Astra Van and killed that too.

We don't supply Vans any more.

I guess when the clocks go back we're in for more headlamp/beam/outage capers............
