Got me thinking here ... I know many of us choose to anonymise our full identity, location and reg plate details but it would have been handy in a case like this to be able to PM to TEW417 without knowing who it was, just so they can be aware.
I'll pop that idea on the suggestions thread in a bit..

Just been to Sainsbury's this morning. The car washers always approach as I get out of the Disco but retreat without speaking. I think it's the glare. Not from the car. From me! 2014 MY Discovery XS Indus Silver. Sadly gone. Second last LR of forty eight years continuous ownership.

doesnt bare thinking about, could u imagine the owner coming back and seeing that , think like all of us would loose the plot
never allow them near mine either , there not going to be bothered if they drop the sponge on the floor and put it straight back on ur paintwork

I don't wash mine anyway so there's no chance I'd pay them to do it. It gets a hose down at the indie when it goes in for a service. That's good enough for me. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk
