macorules94 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Today while my sister was at University, some numnut somehow made a massive visible scratch on her (my future) black 2005 Holden Commodore VZ SV6 pics: She says when she gives me the car next year she'll pay the insurance to fix all the scratches and fully clean it and stuff So, what kind of scratches/dents have people made to your cars?

tuff_luv_capo Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 When I had my Z I worked with a guy who had a brilliant blue cobalt SS. He was a complete tool and was super jealous in a very subtle yet creepy way. One day I noticed he parked next to me, and at the end of the day I found a bright blue patch of paint in a door ding on my passenger side door. F&$/@ing hate cobalt owners.

epoxi Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 That's disgraceful. At least it doesn't look deliberate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I got egged in year 12, around this time of year. So when I went to go home I found that not only had the broken shells chipped the paint, but it had been cooking throughout the day. Massive rage because school insurance only covered teachers cars from egging, which is probably why they pulled them out of classes in the middle of the day to wash that sh*t off.

dog_day_sunrise Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 It's just a fact of life. The kind of people who damage other's cars, either by accident or on purpose, are usually such worthless low-lives that even if it happens to you you can take pride in the knowledge that they're probably going to be dead at 25 from a heroin overdose, or stuck with 5 screaming, disgusting children driving a battered Korean people-carrier by the time they hit 30. One of the advantages of having a bike is it's really challenging for other people to scratch your pride & joy. Most bikers have too much respect for other bikers to even do it out of malice. Plus being covered in kevlar armor and holding a 1kg helmet that's designed to bounce of the road without breaking and thus is excellent for shattering windscreens tends to make people back the f*ck off. One trick I won't confirm or deny doing is if someone drives in an intimidating or threatening manner, at the next set of lights that are red stop, turn off the bike, take the key and place it point down in the centre of their bonnet. Generally makes them listen VERY quickly*. *I, in no way, advocate damaging other peoples property. Honest, guv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marco. Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 No one scratched my car but a few weeks ago when my clutch went (just the clutch master cylinder clip came loose or something thus leaking the fluid) I left my car by the road on the grass overnight and the next day on Saturday, 2 back bumper panels that hold the reflectors on had been taken, I expected something to happen to my car because I know people are scum. I went to Fiat and it's 60 pounds for new rear bumper panel thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to Fiat and it's 60 pounds for new rear bumper panel thing. My clutch went last night on my '03 Fiesta Noone has scratched my car before, but I remember my window screen got smashed and it left a small hole, so I had to park it in an underground car park. The car park was a residential one, and I assume I was parked in someones space because when I got back to the car, there was vaseline all over the mirrors and on the drivers window right where you have to look at the mirror. And also the rear window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suction Testicle Man Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 As some will know I have more of a vendetta against trees than people, but I did have a woman drive into my Cortina a few years ago. She was driving a Nissan Navara and could barely see over the steering wheel, along with three kids as passengers. She drove about a metre away from my rear bumper for over 20 miles, until we reached a set of traffic lights - I braked, and she kept going. Squished the lower part of the car in (most of it - including the boot - bounced back thanks to the lack of crumple zones (lucky I had a headrest). I got £300 off her insurance for repairs (though they were exceptionally keen to write it off) - which I blew on its next MOT. Thankfully I've never been scratched or returned to a damaged car. Though once upon a time I bought a parking slip and left it under my windscreen wiper without thinking, as had I sat on the bonnet chatting to a friend for a while. Came back to find a big pick-up had pulled up afterwards, nicked my ticket and put it inside on his dashboard (the time printed on it was the time I arrived). So I found some dog poo, picked it up with an old newspaper and wiped it under his door handle. If at first you don't succeed, you fail, and the test will be terminated.

DeadMan_Inc Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I've had good luck with my current car so far (2006 Mustang GT). I used to have a 1984 Camaro Z28 that got keyed and had a shopping cart hit it. Didn't have it long before it got stolen though. Police never found it.

Black-hawk Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 sh*t happens. Someone dinged my bumper the other day, left a huge red scuff on it. So now I assume that anyone driving a red car within a 100 mile radius is a dickbag. But hey, battle scars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
win001 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 My BMW got some huge scuff marks since some gang rode their BMX's on top of my car and on the sides as well. Don't know how they managed to do that. It was a real pain in the ass since repair is a bit expensive. I also found that one of the gang members wrote Haha on the side of my car.

Icarus Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 A buddy of mine used to drive an older Pontiac Sunfire (I think it was a 97) and he thought it was the greatest car in the world. Whenever he'd go somewhere and park, he would always take up two spots so no one would scratch his car. One day, he decided to take up two spots at the mall during the Christmas frenzy when everyone is there getting their last minute gifts. He came back out and someone had keyed up both of his doors pretty good. It definitely sucked for him, but certainly ironic in a sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
