Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Ferry co is to blame - it should be possible to turn up at the docks in an alternative car and get on. This would happen for example if you had a breakdown or change of family plans. Dont blame the Opc, check your ferry co again and go for a full refund with tame rotweiller in tow.

Which OPC? Bolton? Parker and Parker?
Bad luck - it'll be worth the agro when you get her back with the PSE - turn the radio off, open the windows and find a tunnel to drive through.
Then turn round and drive through again.
Repeat as many times as your face can handle the ache from the grin

Ditto the comment on Le Mans - you should be able to get any car on (i.e. a Merc) as long as the occupants are the same.. :?
