You do not need to look any further for the sabateour who tampered with your 
wiper blades recently.  Obviously the 'hamburglar' fiend was pi$$ed off with his
hood ripping and seeing your car nearby (for the advert must have been filmed in
Wales due to the severity of the rain) took out his frustration on your car.

Anorak Notes:
a) I thought the car was probably Vermillon not Signal Red (but then it may be 
just the way my TV is adjusted).
b) The rear number plate lamp assy is the MkIV type (Triumph badged) not the 
ugly nipple things on the later cars.

Have any other brit digest people seen the McDonalds ad with the spit 
1500 in? It's all very patronising as when it starts to rain the hood 
suddenly severs right the way across!:-( Then the car is driven about in 
obviously false rain top down until it arrives at McDonalds. cue door 
opening and floods of water exiting, oh hahaha.:-(
     
The car has the 1500 decal on the boonet(hood) but side views show 
MK IV badges on the rear wings. It's a signal red colour with
tan seats and black carpets...just like mine!!! This poor dead ringer 
for my trixie bears the reg EAV *** V, I think.

an anorak!)
