Magnet in the bonnet - Todd
I've been driving a hired Vauxhall Corsa for the past 2 weeks. I've got no choice if I want to get to work. It's not a bad car, except for the fact it's cursed!!! Yep, the bonnet attracts things to it. A few stones have hit it on the motorway. Car's keep pulling out in front of me as if on purpose. Pedestrians keep trying to step out in front of me. I could sort of understand this, as it is a small Vauxhall, so maybe they think it'll disintegrate if it hits them. But animals don't know anything about cars. And on the way to work today a pheasant ran in front of the car and got splatted. And two rabbits and a few birds got splatted on the way back. I honestly don't know how many animals I killed with this car today. Cats also seem to be attracted to the car, although I haven't hit one yet. At this rate I'll have a job cleaning the blood off the front when I give it back. Does anybody have any sage words of advice?

Take the sage mix it with breadcrumbs and stuff the pheasant and the rabbits,But don't overcook them.

What colour is it? Red cars come with a homing device which attracts everything towards them. I've had two and I would never get another.

It's not the car. Your biorythms are all to hell. Stay a week in bed until they are sorted (self adjusting) then all will be well for a month or so.

Yep red cars are cursed avoid if possible, they also have an annoying habit of turnning pink
Re: Magnet in the bonnet - Todd
Yes, the car is bright red!! As for the sage stuffed pheasant.... hmmmm.... tastey.

Todd, you have my sympathy, although there seems to be no reason I believe some vehicles are 'cursed'.
We used to have a pool of vehicles at work, one, an Escort van, ended up left in the yard for days on end as no-one would drive it. This van had such a bad karma ( or should that be car-ma! ), it was identical to at least six other vans in the yard, but it had been involved in no fewer than seven prangs in its first year, all with different drivers none of them blameworthy. On three occasions it had been hit while parked! Eventually it was sold on to a local builder, within three months it had been written off when a load of scaffolding collapsed on it.
No doubt someone could come up with a logical reason for it, but the thing was not one driver in the pool was happy driving it.

I don't suppose you could visit my home town & drive past a few traffic wardens?

A few years ago I had magnetic windscreens.
In a two or three year period I lost about six or seven.
Never before and never since.
