Thanks; I couldn’t quite remember the specifics of when you’d used a legal angle before. I want to see the damage with my own eyes and be certain it tallies with his description of what happened.
Now even more worried as he’s driving my ute!

EDIT: Just read further down, to see it might have been the 'friends' fault. Really but I do not let anyone drive my cars. Especially friends or strangers or anyone.

Those are risks I am mostly comfortable with.
When another mate was chronically ill, grieving his father and receiving chemotherapy, it was a privilege to be able to loan him a car. One that blended in, made him look like he was working, one that gave bouts of freedom from the worry of well-meaning family and friends. He did round off the corners a bit; in the grander scheme of things - so what? Back to the matter central to this thread; I won’t assist someone in misrepresentation of an event, but if they’re a friend I will offer assistance where practicable to recover their position and safeguard. In this case, it’s probably buying the car off him, doing a cheap fix to flip and splitting any profit. |

Cheers for the kind words, but it’s also a moral obligation in my mind (also from Shemot/Exodus ch.23). As always, would rather be told I was doing too much than feeling I could have done more.

Gently nudging my ducks into position. Door shell, guard, window $200 the lot. If things fall into place, I’ll edge them up on the weekend.
PJ I may PM you for E46-experienced panel tips. |
