Re: Roadsalt

yeah not much! six months straight of arguing. persistence paid off thankfully. got the car back all nice and resprayed just in time for the salt spreaders to come out and damage it again. and sure enough, two weeks ago they got me. lovely new paintwork chipped all over again. the feckers.

the impact against paintwork has been my main gripe. but after a six month battle with the local council and the highways agency they agreed to pay for a respray of my omega. and i should think so too!!
