I love that car.

Do they have CCTV cameras?

Someone "rammed" a trolley into ours last week in a supermarket car park last week and smashed the rear light cluster and scratched down to metal.It is going to be expensive to replace but we have quite a large excess so we have to pay.

CCTV cameras. Mmmm!

Sorry to hear that petallus. I suppose it's too much to hope that whoever did is feeling really guilty. .

Your lovely car that made you so happy

No one was hurt or killed, a car is just a means of getting from one place to another. Cheer up! The first scrape is always the worst!

Petallus

I'd be b----y furious too.

You don't live near Ed Balls do you.

The wind blew my trolley into my daughter's car which I was borrowing leaving a dent. To this day I have not admitted it was me when she cusses it. Still not nice to damage a stranger's car, am sorry for you.

A car can be a life line for some people Hunt.

I would not be very amused if someone had scraped my car , in fact I would be rather miffed !

:-(

Happened to me too. Got back to my (new to me) car and found someone had sideswiped it over two panels. I was angry to say the least. It cost £890 to repair including my £300 excess.

Sympathies, I have carefully looked after my car for years, new style Beetle, in showroom condition. Then a few months ago someone keyed it all down one side! It is done out of some weird jealousy, I can only hope what goes around comes around. Some people are seriously sad! x

Happened to me in waitrose as well. Twice!

Someone rammed our car in Asda`s car park a few years ago, they have CCTV, but wouldn`t you just know it, the one concerned was out of order that day!

Would the police do anything about it anyway, as the car park of a supermarket is presumably private land?

Doesn't matter apparently. They found the number of the person who reversed into me. But they decided not to prosecute as the damage was minor.

My son saw someone damaging wing mirrors and ran after the guy and took a photograph. He reported it to the police who found the man and arrested him! I thought he was terribly brave - my son that is, not the vandal! - because these days anything could have happened.

Hunt - a woman after my own heart. The scratches on my Yaris are mostly - but not all - my own doing. I admit it.

I have a couple of scrapes in the same place on my car, where people have tried to get in a small space behind it.
It's just a means of getting from A to B, so I'm not losing any sleep over it.

I think a lot of people need their vehicle to get around, would be totally lost without them.

I could manage as I live right in the centre of town, but I know of friends who live in the "sticks", so would be rather stuck !

Our old "BETSY" is our pride & joy, very old , but who cares, does what we want, so again will say would be miffed if some "person" scratched it .

Plus it costs money to have these things taken care of !

Hmm
