Wise to get the insurance when driving in RHD land.

I probably could have just popped the cover back on but another car ran over it before I could recover it so that was the end of that. The guys at the rental counter were not surprised. I'd say most of the cars I saw had some sort of damage to the far side mirror. Fookin narrow streets.

Indeed. Weird seeing one without the massive wing on the back, looks clean-er that way.

Love the blue

It is common to be born with a cleft palate, but we fix that because no one wants to see something beautiful tarnished.
