What a day...



  Fiat Panda 100hp
Was going to bedfordshire uni for a open day, but only got 15 miles down the M1. The my front tyre had a blow out :(:(

The only person that I knew could help me (my dad) was out of the country, I rang my brother to see what he thinks and all he said is 'Haven't you got road side assistance?' I said no...have you? and he said no lol.

Anyways, traffic officers showed up half an hour later and said I had 2 options, either I ring RAC/AA and get covered, or they can arrange to send someone which would cost £100+, so I rang RAC and got covered, couldn't hear a bloody thing on the phone with the wind and the cars, cost me £106. RAC turned up an hour later in a van and said that they couldn't change the wheel without the lock for the alloys (which I havnt got, and I explained this to them on the phone) so RAC said they will send out a flat bed thing to pick us up.

So me and the girlfriend are waiting behind the barrier in the freezing cold for 1 hour before the lorry turned up and it was the wrong one!, so now we had to wait another hour on the M1 for the correct lorry to come. He took us to the garage that nicked my alloy nut thing. They took off the alloy and put on my spare and they have ordered me a new set of locks etc for the wheels. And I need two new wheels obviously.

So yer, not a good day.

might not be in clio sec, sorry
