Gotta love a good Cornish Hedge. To the rest of the country, hedges are soft and only gently scratch the side of your car. In the southwest, we disguise our stone walls with soft foliage to catch out the unwary, and give them a nice soft name.
I was given a 5 Series as a courtesy car after my Audi S3 was hit and damaged. Driving it in the Cornish lanes was like trying to navigate a large ship in a river.
There is a good reason that the locals drive beat up old cars - particularly when driving home from the pub!!
