Probably some young punk. I can remember when $10 was a lot of money.

Man, I'm glad it's not just me thinking like that...

Wait till you try to get parts for a classic ford...

I got told by one of the senior salesguys there that he's sick of me asking for parts for older cars ...he's said the money is in the new cars and ricer cars... and that they wouldn't make any money holding stock for the older cars ...

I can't disagree with him ... I just have no real reson to go back there now to buy you know, let's see, ... oil, filters, additives, blades, fuses ...electrical bits ...

you know, all these kind of obsolete bits which our older cars use!
bloody imbacile!

Third party is plenty for some, like it was mentioned above, if your car is worth less than the insurance why bother. But I wouldnt want some tight **** uninsured moron plowing into me! Don't have time for the paperwork ! ha

99% of crims do it becuase they are simply too stupid to know better.
It's what happens when lowlifes procreate.
It's just a pity we have to share the planet with them.

On the subject of compulsory insurance: As long as you have insurance, your insurance company will pay for your damage then, go after the uninsured person for the money, by taking them to court etc. So i don't understand what u guys are going on about. Compulsory third party WTF. We need to do the right thing, let the insurance company earn all it's premium payments by going after the dead beats. If all these sort of ideas were to be implemented we can throw the term "free country" out the window. Oh and on the original subject, people have no respect for anyone else's property. Am amused on how they had the "decency" to install there old wipers on your car. Guess they were only half bad hey. LOL..
