Heres a poll
My car was recovered to the local garage. My keepsake was to be my keyring, as I dont know when I will own another Lotus coz i should get a house and i had saved 6 years to own and drive one... and enjoyed every moment of driving the car - and had this keyring all the time
Sad? Maybe, but means alot to me.
Went to see the car the friday after the accident - all present and correct.
Car got written off so went to collect my stuff from the car after the SIDC trackday.
Tax Disc - check.
Bits out of the boot - check.
Lotus Keyring - what? eh? wheres it gone? Theres the key and the alarm control in the ignition - wheres the leather bit with the lotus badge?!
Sooo angry that someone had violated my car and stole the most precious thing to me out of it!!!
Monday morning i called the Insurance guy and he didnt take it. Probably some young lad in the garage took it, he said.
Called up garage manager. He said he hoped it would turn up - leave it with him for a week. Ok then.
I Called monday. "sorry, i forgot". Grrrrr.
He asked people - they didnt know where it was.
I pointed out to him what a good story it would make to the local rag that u cant trust this garage with ur stuff.
"Aye, just u do that, and get the police in too for a 2 bob keyring!"
Me. "One of ur employees stole it!"
Manager. "Yes i know that!!"
Me. "I dont care who took it. I just want it back. I will come to the pumps on wednesday and see if it has turned up."
Manager. "I will send out a memo and ask it to be on my desk by wednesday and will let u know."
So, will it be there?
. Hope you do get it back though.
