SBDJ Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Well just before shooting off to Newquay on Wednesday evening, I noticed that someone has put some dents in the bonnet of my car; several small pin-type dents, and one longer straight one about 8 inches or so. Annoyed?! Just slightly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I would love to catch someone touching my car!! It would be worth them doing it just to see/feel my reaction!! There are some jealous tw@ts in the world who will never have anything nice or expensive. I just remind them of that..... Scumbags!! H.

Guest SteveW's Carole Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I know how you must feel ..... Just before Christmas last year, some charming little kids!!!! KEYED every panel on our Soop. It was park outside the back gate!! We had to have it completely re sprayed, and both front and rear screens replaced. The police took all the details???? but not heard anything yet Why on earth would anybody want to do that... for enjoyment .... WHY???

SBDJ Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Unfortunately nothing I can do, maybe it's a good excuse to look for a nice shiny new bonnet though Need to make room in the garage so I can shift the MR2 in there, then move the Supra onto the driveway. At least there several people will be able to keep an eye on it - also easy to point a camera at too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my head I must have gone over 5000 different ways of hurting those b@stards but I'll never know who it was. I probably have walked past them a couple of times in the street.

Eve Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I know how you must feel ..... Just before Christmas last year, some charming little kids!!!! KEYED every panel on our Soop. Someone keyed the bonnet of my celica just before I had to trade her for the supe. Probably kids. Was parked right outside my parents house in a sleepy village. You can narrow down where kids that like would come from in that village and I was seriously close to just ripping the head off each one to make sure I got the culprit. I think i would actually murder someone for damaging the supe if I caught them. I have seriously considered CCTV to make sure I get anyone who does the supe.

Wayney Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Well just before shooting off to Newquay on Wednesday evening, I noticed that someone has put some dents in the bonnet of my car; several small pin-type dents, and one longer straight one about 8 inches or so. Annoyed?! Just slightly... Mate sorry to hear about that, fingerX it won't cost too much to put right. Its a weird one, you park your car out side your house every single night and nothing happens, then one day BANG, completely out of no where! The best investment I've made on the Supra is to park it in a gated court yard. I live in the most expensive part of the county London, and it only costs me £65 p/m. Which is nothing, in comparison too, if some one goes around ur car with a nail or paint stripper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBDJ Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 Well I can see 5 small dents, and one larger one - there's some scratches too. Coupled with a stone chip or two it's going to cost a few quid to put right properly I would imagine - I guess the key is where the dents are as to whether they can be tapped out easily... Maybe a nice new carbon bonnet is in order instead Unfortunately I don't have a big enough garage for two cars, and I can't push the MR2 out of the way every time (no engine at the moment) so it'll have to make do on the driveway. Motion-activated video recording would be dead easy though for the driveway, definately something I'm going to look into... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geneb Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 wouldnt bother with the carbon one bud the bastards will just be even more jealous and do more damage. really sorry to hear about the damage though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBDJ Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share Posted June 10, 2007 I'm confused as to what's actually caused the dents too As for future damage, I'm not going to live in fear mate, otherwise I might as well sell up and buy a Corsa Once it's on my driveway it'll be in view of more people. I'm also thinking I could rig a motion activated camera with the correct field of view up to an audible alarm of some description? Could be pretty handy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
