Default Keyed - Has it happened to you?

Are Scoobies a target? Some t*%t has taken a key down the side of my WRX whilst parked at Glasgow Airport. I've been parking there week in week out there in a succession of Porsches, Audis and Scoobies and now this happens. I recall that there was a C Class Merc next to me when I parked. Envy mabye?

Has this happened to you?

this happened near me recently during the day. some kids just walking down several streets scratching cars as they went. not down my street thank god, but it makes you jumpy every time you hear kids in the street.

Not keyed but I've had a previous car paint stripped!

Come to think about it I've had many cars vandalised for no reason, really annoys you when you look at your car as your pride and joy.

i used to work in barnsley - had my car keyed all down one side, few months later someone reversed into the car whilst it was parked and creased all the offside wing and door. Had all that fixed / resprayed etc. and a few months later someone did it again in exactly the same place in halifax! Gutted!

I've had my Impreza Sport keyed from the front wing back to the rear... (kids) in Melksham

And my 03STI had a key "dug" into the front wing in Cirencester...

No, but I've had more than a dozen dents put in the near-side front wing and both doors. Probably with the edge of a wheel trim. And I was parked in the middle of no-where, near Ribblehead Viaduct.
