    That’s why I’ve cut my car washes down to every two weeks these days. As the neighbours always jokingly say “ you’ll wash it away” etc but all it takes is one prat passing to notice me a few times washing my car and taking care of it a bit more than usual.

    You feel the guy’s pain with his S.
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    What can you say to that, i'm not well known for keeping my cars clean, but, i would never do something like this to someone who obviously enjoys the passion.
    What kind of perverse thoughts go through these mindless idiots heads while they do it

    If you read the guys story it was quoted around £6k to sort and it got done by an "insurance approved" garage which made a real mess of it.

    Back in at another garage to get sorted proper this time.

    Guy hasn't had much luck at all...

    Just as sickening is the guy had all the names and telephone numbers of the person who did it and the police did nothing about it

    What a nightmare - sick barsteward that done that. I know I felt like crying when I got the rock thrown at my Clubbie the day I picked it up from the dealer but my broken window and dented panel was nothing compared to that guy's car.
