Many thanks I will take it to Guy Salmon in Coventry tomorrow and get them to look at it.

Hope they can sort you out and arent too expensive, let us know how you get on, such a shame you need to.

Went yesterday and it's £605, way more than expected to be honest.

I know this sounds a little paranoid but since some tw4t dented by Audi door in B&Q Bolton I quite often take a photo of the cars either side on me when I park

A guy from Dent Devils sorted my dent out! Very good job and I can't even see where it was now! There was no paint damage though. £65+ vat

I've thought of that but how would you prove they had dented it?

It comes with the territory I guess with having a nice car but its a bugger having to worry about where you park or worried about getting keyed and scratched. You feel like you don't wanna park it anywhere just in case, then you think to yourself what's the car for if you never take it out ooohhhh dilemma! On the occasion we have to do the supermarket run in the Evoque I always try to park it in the furthest parking space possible but its never safe is it?!

Glad to hear you got your dent sorted out successfully Steve and that it didn't cost a fortune, though it's still expense for something that wasn't your fault and a PITA at best.
Yeah, it doesn't matter where you park your car, it's always a worry and my heart's in my mouth until I have done a thorough check to make sure there are no dings. I don't care how OCD it makes me look, going round the car checking, ..it's happened to me all too often in car parks in the past
. I try to park as far away from other cars as I can, but then when I come back, there are invariably cars parked closely on either side!

I did that when I wnet first time - parked in the middle of nowhere, with at least 5 empty spaces in all directions - when I came back, someone was parked next to me
(I guess they needed a 'line if sight' to guide them :lol
