Hi All
Yesterday I made the foolish mistake of letting my better half drive the
disco through a local game reserve while I tried my best to pacify the two
squeakers in the back. Anyway the fellow said that the lions were rather
keen on spare wheel covers and not to let one get behind the vehicle. With
three lions sitting right next to the track, the wife thought this was an
unmissable photo op and decided to stop and lean over to get a few good
shots (they were sitting on the passenger side). As soon as the big male got
up I told her to get going pronto. Well you can guess the rest. The lion
ripped the spare wheel cover (that took me about 10mins of puffing and
grunting to get on) off in about 2 sec, while we were dawdling off in low
first.
Fortunately my oldest (2.4years), who usually runs amok in the back of the
disco was sitting with me in the middle seats, or I fear he might have
thought this was getting a little too close to nature. Anyway, I am now in
the market for a new wheel cover and am not keen on LR pricing. Any ideas on
where to get cheap one?
Regards
Stephen
