God old Max and Tim, Haven't seen them in years after selling the Elise.

I too feel your pain, I have had either a car or a trolly hit the back of mine while at Tescos (i think) twice now. I always park well away from anyone but can't belive its been done twice.

I know, shouldn't take the car there anyway...

supermarkets always seem to be a prime place for car incidents!

years back i used to work at sainsburys and cant recall how many numerous times we heard about car crashes and accidents happening in the car park!

A bloke i know took his new Impreza to Ikea in Southampton the other week. He had only had it a couple of days and when he returned to it in the car park the whole front bumper and offised wing was gone. Some guy towing a load of trolleys had cut the corner and destroyed it.

BEFORE



AFTER



Cost me £200 in total and he even touched the side of the doors with paint for me aswell, i think whoever opened the car must have opened the door and scaped a wall with the side of the door.

Anyway.. It was AB Auto's car body repairs in christchurch that did this amazing job for me. Well chuffed, would recommend and use again, but hopefully i wont have to some time soon!.

You can claim off supermarkets insurance, know of someone who's claimed on Tesco's after recently having the whole of her Alfa Spider done. Also I've also done with my local college. As long as you report it before driving off the "we do not accept responsibity" isnt worth what its writtern on, all about numbers 70% give up at the first herdal might take two or three letters but its them number crunching.

Glad you've got your Lotus back and it looks like a nice job.

if it was done in a supermarket car park would have definately tried to claim off them.. but i dont even know really when it was done, was sometimes between sun/mon o well its been done and dusted now. So glad to have it back and for a good price also. YAY!
