Speaking of which, last week, Thames Valley Police reported this court outcome from an incident in June 2018. https://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/news ... r-newbury/
From Thatcham. No further explanation needed.

Modern?! It's a MK1 Fabia. Probably as old as the guy driving it! Plus I only see a engine tray on that.

My Boxster has quite a few under plastic trays, bit of a pain to remove when on stands. Probably there for both aero reasons and the fact it's mid-engine, so quite a few critical lines pass along the underneath.

There are plastic covers up the sides of the sills. See also VWs. They're a pain in the hoop.

Accident ahead? Traffic jam? Thinking of nipping down the hard shoulder for a bit?

The five-o maybe ready and waiting for you. (and if they aren't, they're not averse to bunging letters in the post)
