This drives me mad! So many selfish people who don't give a sh*t! I've had people do it to me when I've been sat in the car! Luckily not got any door dents in the GTI yet.... I always park in an end space if I can, so I've only got one side to worry about! My Missis thinks I'm mad, and I'm probably a bit sad, but this happened after only a couple of months of ownership and I was gutted! (left overnight in golf club after a wedding)




I used to park on the end of rows in car parks for the same reason until a low loader cut the corner off the row and dismantled the back of my car  :sick:

I was sat in my car last week in a car park, some guy pulled up in the next space to me quite close. He could see that I was in the car but did not think twice about opening his door hard and nailing my wing mirror, idiot. A rather large argument ensued  :angry:

When mine arrives I'm going to quite happily park in disabled / parent & child spaces at the supermarket. More than happy to pay any penalties!  :grin:

Our whole family parks miles away from everyone and yet still this happens: (Look on the grill- below the red stripe)



It makes us really angry, my mom is paranoid about messing the car up. But since she wrote off two rims and a tyre my dad says that whatever happens to the car next will just be repaired. Once the car is scratched it seems to change everything.

The boot also has a large scratch on it that cant be seen unless you close. But still. Its annoying knowing its there.  :angry:

A similar thing happened to my mate at college. theres no parking there but we all park on the small housing estate opposite thats still under construction, so theres lorrys that go by so you have to park all on the same side close to the curb. but yesterday this builder see's my mate hugh parking up and to cut a long story short, they have a bit of an argument weather he has the right to park there and whether the car is obstructing the lorrys coming by, anyway it ends a bit sour and hugh leaves his car there, comes bacck to it at the end of college and the wing mirror on the pavement side is lying perfectly placced infront of his car!

infact thinking about it its no way similar to your encounter  :grin:
oh well its sort of relevant
