Some b*****d has got up close and personal with my MINI and left a small dent on the rear quarter panel.

Gits. From the height of it I guess its a 4x4 or van.

:(:(

Ouch :mad: Sorry to hear about that.

I never park near other cars if I can help it. Always use an end space (halves the chance) and park as far away from everyone else as possible.

Some car parks (like the one at my work) I won't use at all and park somewhere else preferably where no-one can part next to you.

It really p*sses me off that people have such little regard for other's property :disapprove:

That is a bitch mate, Why can people not leave it alone. I hope you can pull it out mate, the dent that is, not the 12 gauge

Yup - know how you feel - had to polish out a white door scuff at the weekend - about 4x2 inches - has left a dink in the panel too - but my cars departure means i won't need to worry about that...until the new one arrives that is.:eek:

Agree with the car park tactics of Ken and can people not be a bit more careful!

Thanks folks.

I do try to steer clear of large vehicles in car parks.
Hey, such is life, its just annoying tho.

Can anyone recommend a good "dent puller" then?

Dunc,

thats sucks a*s mate. thankfully not had to deal with that yet but my last car was only three months in my possession, immaculate it was too, and some berkshire hunt decided to drive up the side of my rear wheel arch and leave me with a nice 8 inch long crevasse!

distance parking is a must. As ken said, end bays or just far away and a taxi to the door!. hope you get it fixed easily.

Well, the man from Dent Devil has worked his magic on the panel, and i'm quite happy with the results.

Just have to get washing it now!
