RE: Bummed, 2100 miles and my first nasty door ding!! - mark_n - 11-05-2015 04:01am I really sympathise because every time I park, it's in my mind and I try to minimise the risk - end of row, top floor, furthest away - and I'm more aware than ever with an RRS now that it's even more vulnerable. I think parking where there will be the longest walk helps because most people are so lazy they will park as close as possible. I have a many-dented Subaru for what is the highest risk stuff - supermarkets, railway stations, airports - and each time it picks up a new dent, I'm grateful it's not on one of my other cars.

Yesterday at a large wholesaler two women with six children (four were infants) were ‘tearing’ through a display of neon colored slogan T-shirts advertising the wearer’s sexual proclivity, making a mess of the display. The two older children were running wild – one found fun in grabbing a large packaged flashlight using it as a club to hit shelf items and also hit his partner. The women could have cared less about what their children were doing. At that time I hoped they didn’t park their car next to mine in the store’s parking lot. RE: Bummed, 2100 miles and my first nasty door ding!! - Simplesimon - 11-05-2015 03:33pm I'm afraid, one of the biggest problems in today's society is jealousy! A lot of people want what others have worked hard for for nothing! And if they can't have it,they show total disrespect to those that have. The scroungers of this world can get there hands on most things, with their benefits etc. huge tv's, iPhones, pet alligators and so on. But cars such as a Range Rover. Are way beyond their reach. Unless they buy a clapped out early model. And they don't like the fact that someone has got something they haven't! Mark my words. If you park your car in a supermarket car park miles away from anyone else. Some nasty little (or big) turd, will park next to you to wind you up, or worse put a ding in the side! Same goes for the car thieves. The nasty little scrotes steal instead of working hard and saving like most decent people. Mainly to fund their drug addiction. Because mummy and daddy abused them or denied them when they were kids!! What the hell has happened to society? Just watching some VE Day Programmes over the weekend, made me sick to the stomache, to think of the world we now live in!! Part 2 to follow. RE: Bummed, 2100 miles and my first nasty door ding!! - HotLap - 11-05-2015 05:24pm Thanks everyone for your kind and sympathetic replies. I've been busy latterly but am going to get it in for the dent to be repaired soon and discuss touch up options. Once the dent is out I can probably live with the scar, just unfortunate that these kinds of people (well documented by the above replies) can get into your pocketbook this way...imagine the staggering cost they add to the already overburdened health care costs in this country...don't get me going on that |
