ADP - I'd like to know myself mate. Parked it up in the leisure centre car park in stevenage at around 8pm whilst me and missus went for a few drinks and to the cinema. When we came back around 12.10am we found the dent. Looks like its been kicked in as too high for a car hit and no other paint or scraping. Some ****** who was pissed someone had a nice car thought he'd teach me a lesson no doubt.

Simon.

Had a similar thing a while ago, albeit not so bad. I reckon mine was done by a 4x4 with some bull bars.

Should be able to get out, that's the only good news

Im not sure you could do that with a kicking, looks like something big and hard, Id go with the bull bar or big bumper on a 4X4 idea

I'm gonna check and see if it can be beaten out but I doubt it so a new boot lid looks imminent. Can't afford one at the moment and would guess its gonna be a fair bit more than my £175 ins XS.

bet I know how that happened...

my mate's '98 wrx had almost exactly the same dent, he came back to find it and asked in a nearby shop if they had seen anything. They said they saw it happen, it was a woman reversing a 4x4 and the spare wheel did the damage... the idiots didn't think to get her no. plate tho... useful huh?

If you've seen P1Fanatic's post regarding the cinema car park incident, you'll know what this is all about!
