Car park present

[pulp58]

Had my GTI only 8 weeks, and some donut did this :





Sorry for rubbish pitcure! The pictures dont do it justice.
rushed over to the dealer I got it from (Heritage Westbury) and were very prompt and it will be £250 to repair! They said as I got it from them and its so new, they felt sorry for me and would do it cheaper (dont know if I beleive that!)
Luckily the plastic bumber took most of the pain, which is just going to be replaced at £45, then its just having the paint repaired. If it had been and Edition 30 I think it would have been alot more to fix due to colour coded bumpers.

Guys at VW say that looks like a trolley (looks to low down for me), but god knows how much it would have cost if I wasnt a "retail" customer and was having the insurance pay for it!

How can people do stuff like this I just dont know?

just an accident... 


I feel your pain, some of us guys love our cars just as much as our second halves (if not more  ). It must be genetic.

You could always ask the shop if they have CCTV if you wanted to see if it was a trolley or a car. If it was a car you may get the number and traceability through the plod

Seeing that makes me so mad    I always park at the far end of the supermarket carpark even if it's raining to ensure my chariot doesn't get hit. I usually come back to find a couple of 3 door cars parked next to me with kid seats in the back ( and the stereo typical fat arsed single mother trying to get her kids out of the car with her arse banging the door into my pride and joy )  Some times you just gotta take it on the chin mate.

A bloke I used to work with was waiting for his wife in a car park when some dizzy bird opened her door and banged it into his. He said she was unaware of him sitting in his car, until he opened the door of his old LandRover and slammed into hers... bit of rough justice I suppose

No you don't - you tell them to feck off - careless inconsiderate thingys

Tw@ts

Sadly, typical of today's society though.

I never park close to trolley bays or cars with child seats in. Always take 2 bays whenever I can. Better still, use the wife's car for the shopping trips

I know the feeling, happened to me the other week in a car park. Take heart it knowing that mine was a lot worse than that !

We had an accident with a trolley too. The Honeycombe grill (the part under the red stripe) had a collision.It is scratched badly. Its almost like someone took harsh sand paper and rubbed a single line across the shiny plastic 

We have tried polishes and such. But to no avail.

You are not alone.

Funny.

I took my parents out today, we visited all the exciting places, B&Q, garden centre etc.   My dad, who walks with a stick, asked why we always had to park so far from the door when there were loads more spaces up front.

You can't even explain that can you.  I told him it was so he could open the door wider.
