Well, I managed to crash my beloved Checkmate into a fence/field.

If that wasn't bad enough, I'm now having a nightmare getting it fixed.

Picked it up from Allied Vehicles in Glasgow on Thursday - the rear bumper is not secure because they haven't been able to get the parts yet (had it for a month!), the paintwork hasn't been repaired and the exhaust has just been bent back into place....except it's not in the right place, it's off-centre and pointing down and to the left, and it rattles.

Trying to arrange for it to go back in but with exception of someone called Lorraine, the staff haven't been exactly helpful.
