Sh@g!
I do remember a friend drilling a hole in his boot to bolt down a sub or something and drilling through his spare tyre.

ha ha, what a bo11ock. I once drilled a hole in the boot floor of my Granada to let all the rainwater out. Cleverly I drilled into the petrol tank, thus allowing the rainwater to drain straight into it.

This appears to be a common mistake among granada owners, my mate bought a scorpio cosworth that had the exact same thing done to it... |
