Washing the amica would be like washing a corgi toy. One bucket of water would do. What colour is it so that we can wave if you are spotted.

Sorry 
Took a bend a bit too fast and hit a bump I think, did a 180 at least and went right up an embankment, just missing a lampost in the process. Can't believe I did something so bloody stupid now.
Hopefully it just needs two new tyres..

Did a similar thing in a sierra estate a few years ago but managed about 270 degrees. Good fun after the event when your body is still intact, although I don't want to make a habit of it.

Happened just off the A6. Watergate Lane nr Little Hulton.
If you pass, check out the tyre marks going up the embankment and notice how they go round the back of the lampost. A mate turned up to help and took a picture of me stood in the track I left, I'll post it if he gets it to me..
Andy, just seen you in Tyldesley, finally see you in your car and I'm not in mine
You let me out as I came from Tyldesley Tyres.

Just happy to stay in front so long.
Just had a break from typing as the dogs went ballistic at 2 blokes near the scoob outside. They have just walked off when I opened the door and let the dogs out onto the front.
Only time the dogs are of any use.
