Agreed, someone wrote in the dust on the Griffs boot at Le Mans, took an age to get rid.

It's not what has been written that is causing the offence, it's the fact that someone has dragged their finger through a layer of road grime and grit to write it. Whatever people say about being gentle and carefull, its irrelevant, it was someone elses property which more than likely has been scratched and I for one would be sodding livid if that was done to my Tuscan, well I wouldn't as its wrapped so that actually wouldnt do much harm if any, but for someone who has pritine paintwork it will definitely leave scratches whether deep or light scuffs.

Walking through the station car park this morning and this made me smile - it wasn't someone on here was it!!!!


Up early, car in traffic in the rain to the station, hunt out a parking place, get wet getting to the platform, crowded train into wherever, walk to the office.....repeat at end of day, all to have and get taxed on a Porsche you're too tired to enjoy.

Nope, not for me..... byebye

If I'm honest, that's how I park. getmecoat Parking places are too narrow IMO as they don't accomodate for morons who will open their doors into the next car, and cars in general are getting far to big.
I had womble ask me to move mine once into the alloted space in an otherwise empty 'free' car park! [can't print my reply]
I wonder how you'd get on if you purchased TWO parking tickets scratchchin Gotta be cheaper than a repair.

I don't get this..... I thought TVR owners were car enthusiasts, who respect other car enthusiasts choices..... Whoever wrote on the car is a tool....and an embarrassment...

And as for slagging the parkingrolleyes... It's not like another car can squeeze in next to him, so what's wrong with a Porsche driver trying to park in such a way to try and protect his pride and joy.... Only to come back to find a grade a bellend has scratched his paintwork...frown

Would have to say that looks like a Porsche that is used and enjoyed by it's owner, while i wouldn't want to do the train to work routine I respect anyone who does so that they can have nice toys for their free time.
Also 100% agree with Quinny, I would be well p*****d off at any knob who did that to my car, wet or not that just puts scratches into your paintwork.
If I was Mr Porsche owner I would be asking to see the CCTV coverage to see if the prat could be traced.

Doesn't matter how much you have to spend on a car or not, wrong is wrong and that is wrong.

Its also ironic, because much as I love TVR's, in pretty much every environment bar a who is loudest competition, the Porsche is better as a car than any TVR.

(Before you all flame me I chose a Tuscan over a 911, but without doubt it was more of an event and less of a driving tool).

FFS Its a car, not a human being. The driver will most likely be pissed off, but will live to tell the tale and no doubt look back in amusement in a little time; or; even after a few suds and wet sponge has been thrown over it… which it needs!

On the other hand, approximately 21k people have died in the world today of starvation. Now there's a crappy day...

How the heck is the fact that people somewhere in the world are dying is any reasonable defence for causing damage to someone's property.

There are all sorts of issues on all sorts of scales on the planet.

My mum was taken into hospital today, without a doubt in global terms that's less important than kids starving in Africa, but on a personal level its more important. Same goes for damaging someone's car.

Perspective. We used to write stuff on dirty cars all the time as kids. Its a little inconsiderate but I wouldn't go as far as damage. Report the crime if its that bad. If you can't see the point I'm making, then I'll just agree to differ and draw line under it, otherwise responses will just head down the long road of semantics. Hope your mother gets better.

It does do damage, that's the point. As a kid I also wrote in the dirt on cars but as soon as I knew it caused damage I stopped. Dad showed me that even after he had cleaned the car you could still see where I had unimaginatively written "Clean Me"

Yes it puts it in perspective but semantics or not its a lack of respect for other peoples property. As kids you know no better as adults you should.
