I completely agree Peter. I am no lawyer by any stretch of the imagination, but if one were to sue MMC, I can't help thinking it would be very difficult to quantify the scale of the loss for which one was seeking compensation.

"I wasn't able to drive my car for 3 months whilst the weather was nice" might fly if one could demonstrate that it was one's only form of transport, necessary for one's work, and resulted in one's business sustaining a financial loss, but in a world where most of us own at least one (and often two or three) other cars, not so much.
