What's your excuse!!!

[doneitnow]

Well all I know is that since I have had the pork I seem to come up with the stupidest excuses to just drive it, 10 miles just to post a letter, I will go get that pint of milk for you, I even talked her into going to see the in-laws the other day, what is going on! So what is the feeblest excuse you have used to just get in it and drive?

Understandable, I suppose if it sits for more than a day the IMS/RMS might go the end result be costly.

Son needs picking up from cinema, and i don't want him to be waiting outside so i'll set off about a hour before film finishes, who needs mobile phones.

So true. Engine up to 83 degrees first (that takes 15 minutes) find a quiet road, go to 59.9 mph on a testing A road and go home .
At least an hour! Guess it's cheaper to let the discs rust but ...

And then it needs washing again.

Then you have to wash the insides of the wheels again

Just need to top up the tyres!

Just popping out to get some cigarettes (only works if you smoke) ....

[GuitarPlayer63]

check the oil level - and the engine needs to be hot to do it....

I always have to 'dry the brakes' after washing the car to stop them going rusty.

It was probably more believable before I had PCCB

I popped out to get a Sunday paper (from SW18). Some time later I found myself on the M4 on the way to Windsor.

Managed to collect a paper from the shop round the corner on the way back. Just before it shut. And just before lunch was served. Close one, that.
