Did an oil and filter change today. Didn't fit the filter housing back in properly. 4.5 litres of brand new oil all over the tarmac. Had to push the car back in the lock-up, I've no more oil. Cleaned up the tarmac best I could with sawdust, took ages. More oil ordered.
That's expensive and embarrassing.

I've forgotten the sump plug before... Can't help but feel a little silly!
