WOW, I hadn't seen this thread for days, and had no idea it had gone on like this.


Okay, I said "That was my first thought too. Kids might key a car a bit, but too properly damage it you need to be really pi$$ed off with the flash git who owns it."


Now in writing that, I had no idea if the car was owned by a straight man, an 80 year old pensioner, a gay woman, or what... I was merely joining in with the scorned lover scenario, and had images of expensive suits being cut up, and yes I was being stereotypical in a light hearted way. I am sorry if I upset your sensitivities, but I wouldn't call myself a "vicious and unthinking" kind of guy.


I'm not envious of anyone who owns a Porche, because I don't drive and have no wish to... I guess I might be envious of someone who could afford a Porche, but I'm sure I could find better things to spend that money on.


I do however play the guitar, and I openly admit that I love people looking at my Gibson Les Paul, big Marshall amp and stupid pedal that does everything if you know how it works (which I don't) with envy, and proudly admit to being a flash git in that sense.

    • Typically the way 'family run businesses' operate is either to have family members continue the business, or to sell on, either as a site (in this instance) or as a going concern. Either which way this is the way the owners create a 'pension' from the business. The number of suggestions as to alternatives makes me feel that the market for small repairing garages locally may be well served, so selling on the site makes the best financial sense for the owners. It's a sign not of the times but of normal business realities. 
    • I agree it's a shame, but it is not a "sign of the times", unless you think that up to now people have never grown older and retired!
