Hahahaha, mine came back from the drive through car wash soaking wet and absolutely furious as her car window wouldn't shut after she started getting taken into the car wash. Rather than reversing out of the tracks, she sat there screaming getting washed, slapped, rinsed and waxed! I pissed myself laughing when she got home.

We went to the stables in our 3 week old brand new A6 a couple years back. (an automatic I may add). The wife reversed into the space, took the seatbelt off, opened the door and climbed out.....leaving the car in reverse without the handbrake on, with the engine running. I stood in astonishment as my pride and joy happily trundled backwards, breaking through a gate and driving itself across a field, backwards. if it wasn't for the grass bank at the other end of the field, I thing the car would of carried on until it ran out of diesel......... And all the wife was concerned about was the horses escaping!!!

and last week, she went to Morrisons in her focus. half an hour into shopping, across the tanoy came "will the owner of a black ford focus registration XXXX XXX please come to the customer service desk urgently"

turns out she forgot to put the handbrake on. Locked the car, and left it to roll across the carpark, leaving it wedged between a bollard and the wall of the supermarket.

I seriously wonder if she actually has a driving liscence?!

Bloody hell! I'll count myself lucky then! My missus has a horse, you'd think she was stabling it in the new Honda Civic by the state of the interior!

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that suffers these kind of wife related mishaps

My wife causes no trouble from the passenger seat. Although I have gone deaf in my left ear since we have been together strangely.

Cheers
