Is it bad when..

[Rich]

Is it a bit bad or even sad, when you need to cobble up a bodge for something to last a few days and your so-say 'bodge' is better than what was there before?

The exhaust backbox fell apart on our Mk2 the other day so I thought 'i'll just bodge a bit of pipe or something on so we don't passout from CO poisoning'

I ended up with this, all made from genuine VW parts




So it appears I can't even bodge when I want to

Anyone else like this with things that don't really matter? (obviously not things like string handbrake cables or something silly but iffy exhausts or whatever?)

My girlfriends exhaust was falling apart on her Mk1 suzuki swift GTi, so to get her back to her folks over christmas I said I would cobble something together. What we ended up with was a cat back mandrel bent stainless system with a micron bike can, all from scrap odds and sods in the workshop.
So no your not the only one, and yes we are daft.
