A VERY sore point indeed! The extension is nearly finished now with the final bit being the granite fitted & appliances plumbed in the kitchen and then the garage floor painted and a few shelves putting up, which should be done by the end of next week. Its full of kitchen cabinet boxes & temporarily moved appliances at the moment! Having the garage out of action for the past 4 months has been a MASSIVE pain the a$%e! :evil:

Mainly because this happened this week:

Which is the result of the little B%^%%ds next door having an 'ice' fight when it was frozen solid last week. I found a chunk of ice next to the car the size of a book! The biggest issue is being able to prove it! The dent chap at Sytners is going to 'try his luck' with it on Tuesday and failing that its a respray of the rear passenger side quarter. To say I'm f'kin livid is an understatement!

similar to an ice bullet, it melts away and leaves no forensic evidence (ps don't start DK, i'm joking)

Good news on the dent front.

I popped it down to Sytners on Friday and the Dent Master (external company) chap arrived and within 15 minutes the dent was gone! To be honest I was not holding out much hope that it could easily be pulled out because it was on one of the curves.

I can't recommend Dent Masters highly enough - oh and the price £30! :afro

Good result.

Back on topic side - been driving on winter tyres through the snow last week, excellent difference. Obviously the 4 wheel drive helps, but now have grip to match it.
