Spectre Posted 11November, 2019 Report Share Posted 11November, 2019 So last Thursday I'm home. Beavering away at the pc, probably admiring some of Ravens finest, when there's this almighty crash out the front. Initials thoughts were that the builders next door encountered an issue. Then the doorbell rings. Builder no 1 says, "some lady just hit your fence". Bugger me the fence and half the gate are flat on the drive. Builder no 1 follows up with, "she took off - that way". He points north. I run off down the street, Builder no 2 has this woman in a metallic bronze Lexus RX 350 bailed up. Happy days I approach said Lexus driver who exclaims, "I did nothing fence blew over." Builder no 2, "bullshit" I insist lady comes back, she obliges reluctantly. I pick bits of metallic bronze Lexus from the palings lying on the drive. We exchange details and take lots of photos. She leaves, I call the insurance company and the police Then the first text. 'you not call police, i lose job and license' hmmm methinks she may an issue with her license I dont respond Next text. 'I send my man Elmer he fix your fence' I dont respond Next text. 'sorry im so confused my husband just died. i send death certificate' she sends a pic of the the death certificate. Good news, the address matches I dont respond Some bloke called Kevin rings 'Ive been asked to fix your fence' (Obviously Elmer was busy) I do respond. Forget it Kevin, its in the hands of my insurer Next text - all of 10 mins from hanging up with Kevin/Elmer. 'you not call police, you promised' - yep i reckon she has a problem with her license 24 hrs later, insurance guys are around to measure up. Next day, next text. 'I go to Philippines tomorrow, you not call police, you promised' I call RACV Insurance and update. Fortunately, none of my cars were in the driveway.

thumperson Posted 24November, 2019 Report Share Posted 24November, 2019 So it is with a tinge of sadness that I bid farewell to the brand. My car has had three years of going back to dealers for an annoying flexing noise. I finally rang Porsche Australia to see what could be done about the next steps and how to rectify. Anyway long story short, got called a liar effectively by the dealer and PA, was told that actions to investigate, like contacting Germany and investigating to their specifications, had not happened and that the way forward was to keep sending it back to the dealer which it had been to between 10 and 15 times already (so much so that I got questioned by co workers as to why had so many Porsche models (loan cars). So now I am the new over of a Jag F-Pace SVR and I have the conversation with co-workers and friends about no longer driving a Porsche. I tell them the story, they shake their head and usually say “that’s a bit shit for such an expensive car, probably won’t buy one of them now”. As a newly reminted lurker😎, I look forwards to reading your stories here and one day buying a non-PA or Porsche dealer associated car, finding a Porsche specialist to deal with as I now realise I love the car but not the brand so much.

LeeM Posted 21December, 2019 Report Share Posted 21December, 2019 Braving some Xmas shopping at 3 different locations (I know, stupid idea) and all I was after is some shorts that hit the knee or just below. It's been a while since I've shopped for clothes, and I'm not wanting to label modern man(?) as...a little feminine with the latest fashions/styles (except man buns, they're just ridiculous), yet WHAT THE HELL are they wearing??? Pastel thigh cut shorts and sandals? Really, that's the latest fashion? They're up there with light blue safari suits from the 70's in the fashion stakes! The hunt continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3legs Posted 1January, 2020 Report Share Posted 1January, 2020 Well so much for the Christmas spirit and goodwill to all men (and women). A few of the houses down my street put up Christmas lights in their front yard and on the house (mine included) for the local kids to look at. About 90% of all the houses also tie a red ribbon around the tree out front of each house on the council verge (is that what it's called?). We all take the lights and ribbons down in the first week of the new year. Anyway last night at midnight, me, the missus and our daughter were out the front in the driveway waiting for the fireworks that the locals always set off on new years eve when a woman on a gopher rolled buy and stopped by our tree with the ribbon on it. She didn't notice us. She got off the gopher and preceded to untie our ribbon. Here's how the conversation went. Wife: er excuse me but that is my ribbon. Woman: but christmas is over. Wife: I don't care, that is my ribbon. Woman: but christmas is over. Anyway she kept repeating this until I shone my very powerful LED torch directly in her face and said, politely of course (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) that is MY ribbon. Well didn't she get on her gopher quick smart and got out of there as fast as her gopher battery would let her. The thing is she already had a few ribbons from other trees tied to her gopher. I should have said to her ok now that christmas is over how would you like to come and take our chrissie decorations (note sarcasm in voice). Anyway sure enough I looked down the street today and yes a few trees are missing their ribbons. What the bloody hell would you want with a dozen or so ribbons for. Note this is not about the ribbons but about stealing christmas decorations. I wonder how many decorations people will find have gone missing this morning. Thankfully we have locked high fence so couldn't get in without injurying themselves. Anyway vent over. ANF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't let it be a PFA member. If you do know the owner of this car please advise him/her that they have been shamed. Very poor form indeed.
