Parked my car in a car park and within two hours of returning noticed that someone had reversed into my front end damaging the bonnet.I presume from the height of the damage that it must have been a lorry or a high 4WD vehicle. I hope i can have it banged out. It pisses me off when S**t like this happens. Just as well he/she did a runner the mood i was in after. Very wise!! Why dont people take their time. But on the bright side its made me want an sti7 now.

PS Have you noticed that if someone prangs or scratches your car it makes you not want to drive it, or is that just me being silly?

I know exactly what you mean. But it just makes me want to rag the engine even more for some reason. I mean, my car's damaged anyway, so why not just race it right?

I had some cosmetic damage on mine and I felt like it was now seriously second hand and wanted to get rid. When I got it back it looked better than new and realised I didnt want to sell it.

Get it fixed and take it from there is my advice.

cheers

chris

Someone did the same to me in Dec 2000, reversed into the back and drove off, went to court 3rd time this month and he got found guilty, but ive not recieved a penny cos i cancelled the claim after my insurance premium doubled, so dont cancel your claim, spose i could do something about it but cant be arsed now.

That was a 4WD as well, you wasnt in the oldham/rochdale area were you.

And now ive had someone break into it and nick my clifford siren and my cd, but as theres little chance of me getting what i want for it I dont mind keeping it.

Question

Did you look around the area to see if there were any CCTV cameras or shopping store cameras that could have recorded it for you, thus getting you a REG !!!

Just a thought ?

Matt
