Brand new car receives first dent
 
So I was up at the Bristol Royal Marriott on Wednesday/Thursday and decided to park in their basement carpark which is full of similarly shiny new cars. I drive home thursday and leave car on my drive.

Girlfriend noticed today that there's an effin dent in the nsr door courtesy of the w**ker who opened their door into my car at the Marriott.

Three weeks old and already it has a blemish thanks to some inconsiderate jerk.

Still, there is a VERY slim hope of catching them, the carpark was riddled with cameras and I've reported it to the police who are going to take a look at the footage.

Wish me luck...!

I always park next to really new cars, because the chance of a new car owner to carelesly open the door into your car is much less than somone who has got a old banger.

Also I try to avoid next to any cars that have baby seats, kids toys, white van mans etc etc. Sometimes my g/f cannot understand why I do not just park the car is so many empty spaces... I end up driving around finding the perfect spot.

I hate parking dents, they are so annoying :wall: Hope you find out who it is, although I doubt the police can do much really.

one advantage of a blue badge/kids incar- I never have to park close to someone :devil:

As I have bratzs I tend to use the parent spaces which are larger :devil:

The car I parked next to was a 2009 year car also!! Also being the Marriott nearly every car was less than two years old and exec grade type cars. I just happened to park next to a t***er! If CCTV shows contact the police will do something but I don't hold much hope for it really, but worth a punt!

Trouble is, most of the new stuff in good hotels isn't privately owned, so the drivers still dont give a stuff !

if i go to tescos' or asda up here I'll park at the opposite end of the car park on my own MILES from anyone else..... I come back to find someone has decided to park in the next space to me WHEN THE REST OF THE CARPARK is vacant:grr::grr::grr:

PERHAPS they thought... oh theres a quattro allon its own,lets give it some company:rolleyes::grr::grr:

Pablo 27-09-09 12:38 PM

I know i should'nt but i always use the with kids spaces in tesco's !!!but only because they are much wider so there's less chance of some &%£$ denting one of my panels :tup:
