Taxi Drivers and their blind spots

Postby Clara » Sun Apr 13, 2008 12:46 am

I'm not on here very often, but the car is still going strong in the attempt to have her looking fantastic for when we drive her to Le Mans (July)

She was booked in for the paint shop next weekend. Excited? I could barely contain the huge grin on my face.

Until this happened....

Apparently the car fits perfectly into the blind spot of a ford mondeo taxi driver (and a woman driver too).

It's time for a new wing.

If we can find one. Otherwise she's going to Le Mans like that :(

*giggles* Luckily a very very nice man has offered me a pair which should be ready for collection in a few weeks then it's straight into the paint shop.
Collecting from him isn't going to bankrupt me (tickets to Norway now going around £600 - 800!) :cry: :cry: :cry:
