Taking the Golf R to the airport tomorrow instead, although that’s only 2 months old and has already got a ding in the rear door..... Heathrow in a couple of months, but Emirates will be picking us up so my car can sit on the drive which is much better.

Thanks, yeah, try not to get wound up about it but it does get to me once in a while. Will get it sorted once I finish a bit more travel for work and have a bit of break from airports...
Doesn't bear thinking about with the pure metal silver, a stunning colour but my god that would be outrageous to fix in a similar situation! (best to leave it at home indeed!) Hopefully you never have to find out!
I'd love to take the wife's car (although newer) to the Heathrow car parks but she refuses to drive mine so it's a problem with benefits most of the time!
She's already curbed one side of the alloys (and a nice set of 19" wheels as well...thank goodness we have insurance for that so will get them sorted as well...Hope this isn't some karma coming back...don't think I've been doing anything untowards to anyone!
I'd love to take a chauffeur service like Virgin or Emirates offer and work does offer to pay for a third party service but the last thing I want when coming back from a long haul is to have to make polite small talk...I'll take the risk and enjoy the freedom of being in control of my own time and actions any day!
Have a safe trip and maybe our land sharks will cross paths one day...
