A good example. I have an idiosyncrasy in my paintwork which should have shown up in the final prep booth. Nothing much but I know it's there.

That's early onset Taking Care of Things............
Regular inspections will reveal all sorts of hand built idiosyncrasies. When does sloppy and careless become hand built idiosyncrasy? Discuss: (500 words) (10 marks) How about the robot applied paintwork on Carolines Merc is that better than the handsprayed paint on Tarka? Interesting comment: whilst the hand applied respray done (under warranty) by the Mercedes approved bodyshop is a better job than the original, but it still doesn't have the lustre of the MMC job.

When being built by hand is a means of production and not a work ethic.

My own Plus 8 fell apart as well after 6 months-AND the paint started to crack. Full factory respray and rebuild on warranty and since then no issues.

The once famous protestant work ethic disappeared decades ago in the UK.

This is one instance when it is right NOT to say "they all do that Sir".
