It was my brother in law's wedding on Sat, and my wife kindly offered my services to chauffeur him to the wedding in the 911.
No probs I said - car should look nice with the white ribbons on it. So I put them on Sat morning and drove him to the wedding through the pouring rain, and then drove back to the hotel and parked pride of place outside to show off a bit, and hopefully get the car in some of the wedding photos :wink:
Some time during the meal I nipped outside for a quick smoke, and noticed the wind had picked up a bit and the ribbon was flapping about - went and checked the bonnet, to find two areas of scratching on the bonnet, about 3" wide x 8" long in a 'v' shape, where the ribbon must have trapped some dirt underneath it, and scratched the f*ck out of my bonnet :shock:
Winner - looks like it will be a few hours with the PC trying to lift that out - looks a right mess
Next time I will just offer to hire him a car ...
