My policy is Never get others car/bike and Never lend your car/bike to others. So no problem Following it strictly for long time (except for some emergencies, both ways). Learnt from my Father.

Being late makes it easy to say, "All the above". But I really loved reading the posts. I am not sure if someone had posted it already - I don't trust drivers of dealers to pick / drop up car from home for service.

Ha Ha. Good one.

But till now I did not had that problem. Even if he askes, I shall react depending upon the situation (I said emergencies are an exception).

Feeling sorry for a car when you see it parked under the sun and cursing its owner.

Agree.

Nothing is more painful than parking the car without any shade for the whole day. I have started coming in early to office to partially shady place. The best thing about it is, this has become a habit for me and I am able to complete prioritization & delegation before my team comes in.

I used to get it to office, then suddenly boss comes and asks and I say there is a minor breaking problem(sorry brio, your braking is perfect) and very low on petrol. Escaped that day and since then I drive to office on 2 wheels

Washing the lug nuts, cleaning their grooves, and drying them before putting on the spare wheel.

The manual says the parking brake needs to be pulled directly while engaging (no need to press the button at the end while engaging), while disengaging press the button and push it down.

How many of us push the button even while engaging the parking brake to avoid the krrr sound !

Good one. Never thought about it. But never uses the button while engaging the parking brake.

Washing and polishing the car before giving it for service so that the SA says "Wowwwwww saar what super maintenance!!"
