Just got the pig back from the factory (full respray, service, upgrades- it was perfect, thankyou TVR!)parked it and 3 hours later it's been keyed- bonnet, two wings and a door.

It's pointless discussing the whys and wherefores- it's done- let's move on.


Any suggestions for a repair? Anybody suggest a decent Chipsaway bloke (or similar) or body shop in the S. Wales area please?

Thanks in advance.

You could consider an alarm upgrade - the Clifford Concept 400 (I think) chirps if people get too close .. shame it cant be wired to 10,000 volts .

Well, technically It could

You would just have to hope it isn't member of a law enforcement agency that got to close

I know the feeling, mate, have had the same experience in the past - maybe Charles Bronson had the right idea ??

Thanks for everybodys help and advice.

Motorsmart are coming today to have a go at a repair. If it's shite I'll get it fully resprayed when I go to Italy for half the cost.

Don't let them get you down people!

Hopefully they'll do a good job. My old boss had them take care of a large scratch down the side of his bumper (from a wall) which they made look like new

p.s. Westgate St? That's the one I always park in, I'll keep an eye out for those little $hits!
