So you've never damaged your wheels?

Since owning my Golf, I've pranged the front (scratched front bumper, damaged grille and dented the bonnet) in a 2 mph impact and then done the rear bumper in a 0.5 mph impact.
I do drive slowly and carefully but sometimes things get in the way and don't move in synchrony. Not my fault. :angry:

You've got parking sensors  :evil: so how can things possibly get in your way? I guess your talking too much in the car and not listening to your sensors. :wink:

No talking. Was alone. Just thought I'd be cleverer than the sensors and the image on the RNS510. Also, I was distracted. It was a hell of a squeeze to get ino that parking spot. Never again.

Yeh. She was wearing a very, very short skirt and overcoat, bent down to pick her dropped keys and I saw a red thong! :sick:

Should have got out and given her a good prang instead of pranging your car  :laugh:

Gizzy, really. It was too cold and I did not have the energy at 8 am in a car park in Kings Cross. She's young enough to be my grandchild. O, dear, this makes it sound really disgusting. :sick:

Stop it! You are egging me on.

Now if you were there, in that position, it would have been a different matter! :kiss:

Don't you have Park Assist?
Tut-tut...

Best add it to your list of retro-fits.
