Another tale of woe to add - some tosser ran in to the back of me in slow moving traffic this evening. The damage is very minor but he has left 3 small marks on the lower plastic bumper/valence. The marks are hardly noticeable when looking at the car but if you get in close you can see them and there is definite indentation if you run your finger over them. I got the guys details and told him I'd get it looked at and let him know. He was an old guy, 60-70's I'd say in a '06 Ford Focus. I'm in two minds about whether or not to go after this guy and get it fixed. The damage is just superficial and almost impossible to spot unless you are looking at the rear bumper very closely. But I'm pretty anal about my car and there are no other marks on it whatsoever. I look after the car really well and am seriously pissed off that some dickhead has marked it. I reckon I'll drop in to the dealers service department tomorrow and ask them to take a look and see what they say.
Really pissed off. The car is less than 4 months old and was my pride and joy. I could accept it more easily if I had marked it, but the fact that it was someone else is doubly annoying.
What is it with all these accidents at the moment?? These idiots are obviously out to get us. Be careful out there everyone...
