    I'm not sure about that, but Ray, ask your grandaughter to put the bl**dy handbrake on next time she's finished thrashing your car round the block:D

    p.s. do you remember where you lost your mobile phone yet?:D

    Good spot Clive I must admit never been a great lover of handbrakes i always as a matter of habit leave the car/van in gear first How many times have you had the handbrake stuck because the car/van was put away wet and not used for a while . Same as they get frozen on over night if left outside In the garage i dont use either just chock front and back wheels

    Muahahaha.

    I spent 3 hours cleaning the Mondial - had just finished waxing and polishing, looked amazing. My youngest had been eating some crisps.

    Turned my back for a few minutes and he had wiped his greasy hands all over the car - everywhere. "Daddy's shiny Ferrari! Look!"

    It showed up nicely in the sun :-(

    I told him not to touch the car with dirty hands and had to clean it all up. Big deal.

    If I can behave in a calm manner like that, with a car I've wanted since I was my kid's age, and have worked hard to get, I fail to see why a salesweasel cannot behave in a better manner when a 4 year old goes *near* a car.

    There's just no excuse for making a child that age cry, when not only has he done nothing, but would be incapable of doing any damage to a car.

    If the kids are tearing around, and the parents aren't doing anything about it, then yes, step in and tell the kids off.

    But that wasn't the case here at all, and IMHO that makes the salesweasel's reaction inexcusable.

    20 years time that kid could be returning with a fistful of notes looking to buy a brand new car. Kids of today are your customers tomorrow.

    Cheers,
    TOM

    Mr Hartley was always very fair and I shall buy another car from him just as soon as my divorce settlement is within my bank account. A convertible XK8 appeals at the moment. A convertible Ferrari would be rather nice but I prefer automatic operation of the clutch pedal.

    I shall seek Mr Hartley's opinion on the matter. But I am determined to have a convertible for the summer.
