doh, dented landrover :(

ooops.
Completely and utterly my fault too, atleast I think so! Pottering down the dual carriageway and the bonnet flips up, putting two nice dents in it and denting the roof rack. Considering I couldn't see much, was pretty glad to only be travelling at around 50-60 at the time!
Haven't had the bonnet up since Sunday either, and all 'seems' ok, but i think one of the clippy things didn't set properly when I last shut it, only looked shut.
Not as frightening as you'd expect, its just like driving with your eyes shut.

My bonnet played me up on the disco the other week seemed to latch ok but went over a couple of speed bumps and it flipped onto the hook.
Finally sussed it out, had a nut in the hole where the latch sits and was just the right size to sit and not be seen without a light
Was doing my head in

about a yr ago we where goin down the big dipper near newquay in our rangie doing about 90, screaming downhill in the outside laneovertakeing all the cars, and it just came straight up and bang! windscreen, bonett, roof, door pillars! the lot! but i would have liked to have seen the guy in the caravan traveler thingy who had smashed windscreen all over him at 90mph!!!
and for future referance! rangerovers are usless without a windscreen in them,i put a new roof on it, straightened out the bonnet and pulled the pillars back forwards! and had to drive to dartmoore from deepest cornwall with no screen(to pick up a new 1!!), the body just wobbles and flaps about evriwhere!
cheers

When you said it is useless without a screen I thought you were going to say it let all the flies in and you ate loads not the fact the whole car wobbles!
