    Surely the MX5 was rammed full of nigh on fifty albanian terrorists

    Fine. But it's not me you need to convince.

    You know how you'll moan when they give you a bill.

    No, you need to check with your leasing company whether such small scratches fall within their definition of acceptable return condition.

    No. Just a rather harassed man called Neil. He seemed a bit upset as his pride and joy was all dented and cracked. Serves him right for driving a girl's car imo.

    Yes, I suspect Neil didnt get the memo about the mandatory vulva required to drive one.

    Speaking of which, my OH has replaced here mandatory vulva car with a VW Eos, which is like a nice version of the Pasaaaat

    Driven hard, an MX5 is one of the most entertaining cars money can buy. Any money. The combination of relatively low power, lightness, proper old-fashioned rear wheel drive oversteer and skinny tyres makes the thing truly good fun at reasonably low speeds. But it looks like the conveyance of a steaming great pooftah.

    Don't tell them someone hit you; themoment they hear that they'll demand that you claim. Just tell them you've noticed some small scratches...
