Audi TT with slight* water ingress

Post by GingerMagic »

Following my fruitless attempts at finding the reason for my EML yesterday, my spirits were a bit low.

Then I spotted this in the local rag :arrowd:

Oh dear oh dear that is really sad :cheesy:
Schadenfreude (/ˈʃɑːdənfrɔɪdə/; German: [ˈʃaːdn̩ˌfʀɔɪ̯də] ( listen)) is pleasure derived from the misfortunes of others.[1] This word is taken from German and literally means 'harm-joy.' It is the feeling of joy or pleasure when one sees another fail or suffer misfortune. It is also borrowed by some other languages.

Debris could be seen along a stretch of the bank this morning, with the toppled lamppost, a first aid kit from the car and wooden fencing lying alongside parts of the buckled bumper.

The rear window of the vehicle was smashed, and a section of the Audi's distinctive badge, featuring four interlinked circles, was found around 10 feet away from where the car eventually stopped.
FFS next they'll be telling us what the driver had for breakfast and which school he attended including his grades :roll:

Is Bournemouth short of entertainment at the moment? those scratches in the concrete kerbstone will keep the locals gossiping for months :shock:

The article did appear to be written by a 15 year old trying too hard to impress his teacher...

However, its a lovely heartwarming story, makes a change from the drugs and murders...

Drugs and Murders?

I thought it was all Deck Chairs and Ice Cream?

I'm somewhat disappointed that the serious issue of polluting the river and distrubing the delicate eco-system has not been mentioned up to now. :?

Audi should be prosecuted, for supplying the source of pollutants and entrusting the vehicle* to (another) knobhead.
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
