Thanks Billy. You are right I am actively looking into exchanging the car before our next Continental holiday in 2008
Sharing my woes on caravanning websites helps to keep me sane. Thanks for the support folks.
Latest development Autow refuse to pay for the hire car as they say the car is drivable. I think Merseyside Constab might disagree. The damage to the "new" windscreen is worse than to the previous one - a huge crack across the front of the screen at eye-level above the steering wheel.
Fortunately we have 3 days left of the 10 days of the Red Pennant hire car when you get home bit and RP have agreed we can use that up. We purposely kept this back returning the hire car when we could manage without it.
I keep thinking things must be at there worst. Good job I don't believe in luck.
At least the car is home and not an expensive repair bill.
Can't help but wonder if the car would have been drivable after a rest - as that is all that it has received from the Lookers and Italian garage. Oh and a nice ride across Europe and around the roads of England on assorted car transporters.
Best wishes.
Tim
