Frogslegs Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 [:(]I have lost count of the times that the Mondeo as been knocked...mostly parked in supermarket car parks....perhaps it's because it is right hand drive?Anyway last time we left it near Ruffec, someone decided to knock part of the rear wing off! It's not worth repairing professionally so does anyone know where to buy a fibre glass kit from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Try Roady, there's one in Civray, but I don't know about Ruffec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 What colour is the Mondeo? I once had a gunmetal-coloured car that kept getting hit. I got rid of it in the end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugsy Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 We have a 'shopping', car an old Citroen AX, that's covered in dents. Perfect for French supermarket car parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just been out shopping and the gear selector rod snapped off, leaving me with just third and fourth to get home with.Stupid little bracket, snapped in two, and far too feeble for the job it has to do. Anyway out with the welder, a bit of extra bracing and it's now all fixed and back on the road...............................[:$] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I had an Austin Maxi once (dunno what came over me, M'lud, I promise never to do it again) and the whole gearchange assembly fell out of the floor pan. In Clapham. In the rush hour...The crappy spotwelding just gave way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugsy Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 We had a Maxi too, what an awful car. British Leyland in the days of 'Red Robbo'. Ours caught fire in the drive of our house and destroyed itself. Ruined my new tarmac drive too...........................................[:D][:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Maybe it's one of the Chicken Coops somebody is trying to get rid of... But then again maybe not as it's UK registered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
