Really Peed off!!!!!:(

Post by syrus_sw20 »

don't you just hate it when you leave you car parked and come back to see that your bumper has been smashed and the fog light is hanging,
well i parked up in my local Asda and when i came back i noticed my front tubby has been smashed into,
No note was left and no one was around as it was late at night, i went back into the store to see if the CCTV had picked it up but apparently where i was parked was out of their view. (typical)

so now i am left with a damaged front bumper + splitter and undertray, drivers side fog lamp including bracket and headlight does not align anymore the bolt at the top looks like its snapped off .......

so i am on the look out for replacement parts
so if anyone has any of the parts mentioned above in black preferably please let me know,


thanks in advanced

It's jelousy mate pure & simple people are jelous of the cars and will deliberatley try and scuff n scrape them if they think they'll get away with it.Probably the same time of scum that will look down on a SW20 and say something like "oh that old S**t" down the pub whilst knowing that they drive a mass produced under powered everyday lookin s**tbox on wheels

Yes i've had my car done 3 times and paid the bodyshop bills it's now garaged at all times and i take note of the car reg's either side of it if i have to park in supermarket car parks.

Rant over :evil:

I don't think people would intentionally drive into anybody's car, they'll damage their own in the process :? keying etc tho could happen

I've also noted down people's reg too if they've parked on or over the line in car parks or 've had to squeeze into a tight parallel parking spot

I feel sorry for yoo matey - its really frustrating that people can be so selfish - hope it doesnt work out to expensive to fix :-(

As a rule I if I have to park next to other cars at all I always try and pick something new and expensve that looks clean and well cared for - hopefully they wont damage yours as they want to look after their own - no guantee of course but parking next to some old shed already full of dents and scratches is asking for touble (not saying you did BTW!)

Thanks guys for all the replies
big thanks to alanmr2turbo and Claw2k
PM replied to.
when i parked up there was no car in sight, so did not notice anything out of the ordinary,
i guess some people just dont care about others cars or their own as the damage caused on mine, should have caused their car some fair bit of damage also...
i would like to hope that this was a pure accident as i am great believer in humanity but all the evidence suggests that it was done maliciously
(empty car park + alot of spaces available + the level of damaged caused)

thanks again
i love my 2 and would like to restore her back to her former glory :)

A couple of years ago I had a mint mk4 1989 escort rs in Metallic gunmetal grey, one bright sunny day about 5pm ish, parked you in designated parking in a town center went to kfc and come back and some ar**hole had reversed into the front bumper cracking it and cracked the (rare) genuine RS lower front splitter and smashed the fog light into the bonnet, someone must have seen them do it as they pretended to write there details on a piece of paper and put it under my wiper(a BLANK piece of paper). I went straight down the cop shop they got a cctv video but it was on a relay switching between cameras in the town and didnt get the idiot that did it and there were no witnesses either all the shops had just closed for the day, Hmmm. There scum, hope you get it done as cheap as possible :twisted:
