Couldn't give a flying f**k.  It's a car - it's tin and rubber not flesh and bone.

A few dings ain't gonna make it drive any worse.

If your car is really SO important to you I suggest you lead quite an empty life: get over yourselves and grow up. 

People matter, cars are just things.

Things that you have to pay for. I work too hard to have some scrote inflict damage. Costs you money to put right, so yes pretty important to a fair few I would guess.

Few people matter, most disappoint.

Agree, with the two above. Might not be flesh and bone but it still costs money to put right, and it's not exactly a couple of pounds to sort out a ding and a scratch.

Agree to a certain extent with what DH has said.

i would prefer not to have a dent or a ding, but if it happens its not the end of the world...

Hi must admit this is one of my pet hates, thoughtless sh!ts who park next to you, who then throw their doors open on their £500 sh!t heaps to put a nice dent in your pride and joy. When other people say it is only a car it annoys me because when you have parted with a lot of money and someone puts a nice dent in the side when it comes to selling the car on again it de-values it. To most people their car is probably their second biggest investment after their house, so why people cannot respect other peoples property is beyond me :shocked:

Because life's too short to be all idiotic about a little ding in a car.  It's a mode of transport, not a fetish.

Lots of people with £500 sh*tters on here.

Some of them are even proud of them and would get upset if their car got dinged. 

I'm not, I'm all about throwing my door open to put dents in other people's new cars.  It makes them cheaper when I need to buy them.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
