Default I've Broken Him

Stopped to fill up last night, opened up the fuel flap & bang, it snapped clean in half. I could not belive it, just broke!!!!!

Phoned the Simonstone & thankfully they said it will be a warranty jod and have ordered the part.

For now I have managed to glue it together with superglue, rub it down & repaint it, looks no too bad thankfully.

I had to reread that as I was thinking "no, he couldn't have meant that?!". Hope it's a one-off and not a weak component. You hadn't just eaten a whole tin of spinach of something had you?!
