It was the GreenStuff pads not bedded in yet, honest
Did he park it with the nose to the wall in the parking bay and bugger off?

Could have been worse - he could have hit the back of another scooby as he arrived back at the dealers

Now, now cynics - it may not have been his fault. Perhaps someone reversed into him at high speed....?

Exactly - and I've known many a lampost veer into my path on my way home from the pub. If they can jump out on me like that it's not hard to imagine them doing it to the odd passing scoob driver.
I've never trusted lamposts......
