4 massive dents on my car, 3 of them in less that 2 days all on one door of my car.

How can people be so careless?

Totally understand mate I have the same frustration everyday! Not a mark on mine but now 3 small dints on passenger side door. Arghhhh
When I drove all the way to Scotland to pick up my blobeye I dropped into a service station and parked it in the middle of nowhere & as far as possible from the entrance a little like the sky blue car in Terminator's pic.
On my return there was a car parked right alongside, I could not believe it! Obviously taking the michael or what!
Anyway I have a mate in the trade who uses a mobile guy who is very good apparently so when I get one or two more & I will. my aim is to get his man on the job.

It's a sign of the times I'm afraid, little respect from most people nowadays.

to a huge % a car is just a lump of metal for ferrying shopping/kids ect around.

they have no respect for there own vehicle never mind a "boy racers" subaru im afraid

as silly as it is, i always park as far away from others as possible to prevent such issues, rarely works lol

Sadly, this is true.

My WR1 has a dint in the side and a massive scratch, thanks to some old lady who dragged her trolley load of shopping along the side of it. I saw her do it. I had only been parked a matter minutes. By the time I got back to my car, she was in hers and driving off. I usually have a lot of time for older people, but I could have cheerfully pushed her into the traffic for that one

It's nigh on impossible to stop this.
I took the wife to Asda yesterday, and as i can't stand the bloody place i always sit in the car, at the far end of the carpark away from everything.
Yesterday i'm sat there minding my own business, and some tw@ parks right next to me, then opens his door into mine!

Suffice to say i was out like a shot, little bit of a debate with the driver, who said sorry i didnt see you there mate?

Luckily he did no damage, but he did come back to find a flat tyre after i had gone

Some old tosser backed into wifeys wing when she was parked up at her mums.
She saw him do it and drive off.
When she saw him next he denied it.
A week later he found he'd got 4 flat tyres due to screws in the side walls.
No idea how that could of happened!

Didn't tell wifey about it though. She's too honest.

People single out your car then and scratch it.

Or do what i do and drive a metro

No bugger wants to park next to you then

But as a rule with the scoob i never park next to 4x4's mpv's or estates.

Means they have kids, which nearly always means you get dinged.

I recently spent the school half term holiday's in Cornwall and the worst thing about going out visiting different tourist attractions everyday was finding a decent place to park that would present the minimum risk of someone else denting my car.

Once we'd got to where we were going, spent 10 minutes finding the best available parking place and parked up. I then spent the rest of the visit worrying about whether I would return to my car to find it had been dented or scratched.

Thankfully I was lucky and the car never got touched all week, but it still ruined the holiday spending all the time we were out worrying about the bloody thing.

Stupid really, it's only a car!

If they hadn't removed the bump strips from cars the problems wouldn't happen!

I have just used a local mobile dent remover, came to my car the other day to find a dent in the drivers door, realy annoyed me so I ring this guy up, he comes to my work and removes 8 dents from my car, wasnt even aware of most of em but this guy was awesome and my car is now dent free, he even removed them tiny little dings that you can only see from certain angles. £60 he charged me and it took him about 30 mins to do, worth every penny imo, there was just one catch - if your paint is damaged on the dent then he cant do it and a body shop is required.

I agree but my wife always argues that we are so far from the entrance of asda
but I just say I dont care and park there anyway

I am not long back from working in Israel and over there around 70% of the car's
on the road are all bashed and scrapped from very poor driving skills
when you park your car and there is a small space behind it people will try
and squeeze in and bash your car then when they cant get into the space they just drive away.
