Is truly disgusting what he did to the Aston Martin, and though the video quality wasn't that great, I have a feeling that someone will recognise this guy and perhaps post his name and address online
Video quality wasn't great??
Could hardly call it mine craft resolution though.
It rarely gets much better than that.

Realistically though, what would happen to this chap should he be identified and prosecuted? Doubtful he's got any money to be able to pay for the repairs and the courts wouldn't consider jail time for this. A slap on the wrist and a victim surcharge paid off at £3 per week.
Except he's pushing a £2000 pram.
Went shopping for about 20 minutes at a large complex in Belgium, came back to find a big bin had been emptied all over the bonnet and roof of my LP560. Packed car park, broad daylight.
The bin was lying next to the car, it was one of those big mesh ones that goes inside a wooden or concrete surround so I set off looking for it so it wouldn't be left rolling around. I checked the whole place and there were no bins, it hadn't come from there, they'd actually taken the time to drive off and get it from somewhere else!

That's shocking - as is the Aston video. Human nature really worries me sometimes.
the two pics looked like before and after enhance in that programme. No Bend said:

I just don't understand the mindset of these people, why do they do it, and to such a beautiful car?The bin was lying next to the car, it was one of those big mesh ones that goes inside a wooden or concrete surround so I set off looking for it so it wouldn't be left rolling around.

One thought regarding your incident, did the shopping complex have CCTV, in which case they may have caught the vandalism on camera.
And I know it's not much help now, but most dash cams can be hard-wired in so they record all the time if necessary, in order to catch instances like this, then you can deal with the situation as you see fit.

I simply cannot believe this happens, why would anyone feel the need to key or spit on another's car simply because it's an expensive one?
Awful.
It's not just expensive cars. I was spat at in my old Alfa 147 as I passed some youths. Awful.

As I was driving along the M11 in a work's Continental GT someone spat out their window onto the windscreen. Sad really.
This along with the guy posting about someone emptying rubbish onto his Lamborghini, what goes through people’s heads to think any of this is acceptable?f
king disgusting. If I see a nice car I’ll admire it, if it’s particular unusual or rare I may even take a picture; but for these brainless tts they feel the need to damage it.redback911 said:
Few years back I saw someone had thrown the remnants of a MacDonalds milkshake into someone's convertible. It was shocking, I really felt for the owner.
Then there was the Welsh teen that jumped on the McLaren bonnet while his friends were videoing, his IQ matched his age as he then posted on Facebook.
I'd be interested in seeing that.Then there was the Welsh teen that jumped on the McLaren bonnet while his friends were videoing, his IQ matched his age as he then posted on Facebook.
Also where do half of you lot live? Places so bad your cars are getting f
ked over. Sounds like living on a council estate, or the north...ATV said:
Could anyone tell me if there is any decent place that does bespoke car camera and microphone installs for this sort of thing?
This happens regularly to my sister's boyfriend. He drives a 911 and the amount of abuse and hassle he gets is unbelievable. We've spoken to him a few times on it about maybe changing his car but it was is dream car as a kid and he says the joys of owning it outweigh the hassles.
It's unbelievable the amount of sh*t and abuse he gets driving it day to day. Pulled by the police regularly for a standard "it's lawful for me to check your details under the Road Traffic Act", keyed at car parks, spat on by people crossing zebra crossings etc. the list goes on.
I've spoken to him about maybe getting some cameras and microphones installed if he doesn't want to give the car up, we might get him it as a present especially as my parents are worried that he's had a few issues when my sister has been sat in the passenger seat with him.
Where on earth does he live!? This reaction sounds more like a TopGear episode..This happens regularly to my sister's boyfriend.

Even when I've been driving like a complete dick, I'd never get any known animosity towards the GT2.
He either drives like a grade A weapon, in which case, car isn't the factor, or lives in a seriously horrible area.
