I expect they were bored so they had a bit of fun with me.
You in Eire then Irish? If so, I understand the Garda have a different set of rules.

That bit's not so much different from here then Irish. They seem to indulge themselves with a bit of cat and mouse with motorists to avoid the onerous business of catching crims.

well we got the old girl collected today.didn't really check her over and by the time we got home it was dark .from what i can see she is pretty rotten the truck driver opened the drivers door to stear her and it almost fell off in his hand ;Dthe whole scuttle and a pair are almost non existant as is that part of the dash.couldn't get the passenger door open and the rear doors the key turns half way but wouldn't unlock the handle.one bonus is that the stretchers and cupboards are all present.ideally i need someone that is cutting up a van and to have the whole a pillar for starters.pics tomorrow.

thats a shame. Keep the steering box as its likely to be a heavy duty burman.

That's sad Irish. You could have a wake for him tho? . All your mates round, a few beers, and a bit of a craic to send him off?
