Help me find this to**er!!

So we parked my Cayman S in the car park at our local gym. We come out an hour later and there is a note on the window.....
Its says "So Sorry" and has £15 underneath it.....
They have taken out the rear passenger side wing......total cost to repair, £1200 which I have decided not to do on insurance.
The gym doesnt have CCTV and there is some mindless coward that just left the scene to make sure they dont have to take responsibility! Ah well it will cost me £1185 after I take off the £15 they left me....to**er of the highest calibre!!

ers! - were they expecting it to wash off?some people
looking at your location - this wasn't the David Lloyd in Raynes Park was it?
If so I saw your car there a week ago or so.... was looking real nice then - not that that's any consolation...

Hi yep it was a DDL Raynes Park.....it has gone into Bodytechnics today in Slough to get fixed and I have a 1.2Ltr Corsa for 2 weeks!!
So to say sorry to the car I also have Dave Bowerman coming round later in the month for a full paint refurb (2 days of Zymol waxing!!).....plus getting new tyres put on the car in 2 weeks.....
So should be back to showroom condition after all that love and attention!!

that sucks dan. I've seen your car round the area too and it looks great. good to see you're looking on the bright side of it
If I may, what made you choose Bodytechnics?
Basically when I bought my car I got crap pre-sales service from West London OPC so I ended up going to Guildford and the sales guy (Paul) was superb! So when I got hit I contacted them and they recommended Bodytechnics......simple really. I probably should of shopped around but I am one of these new Porsche drivers and thought I should do as they tell me!! :-)If I may, what made you choose Bodytechnics?
Firstly - you have to at least have some respect - I reckon at least 75% of people would have driven off without doing anything.
Whats the betting he left everything he had.
Of course, that doesnt excuse the damage, and he could have left his details - but 1200 sounds pretty expensive - so it makes me ask, what did he do? any photos? is this OPC prices?

no way!15 quid - even the most ignorant prick would know that thats not even enough for a decent car wash!
i'm betting the note was so any witnesses thought he was leaving his number!
It's true that most would have driven off, but only if they thought that they hadn't been spotted. Perhaps this is some half-arsed attempt to mitigate the offense in the event of getting busted.
But any way you slice it leaving the note is an admission of guilt, and shows that they had the means to leave their details, so they've willfully left the scene.
I was going to suggest looking into the availability of other CCTV resources around the location, but given how utterly uninterested Plod are in crimes (and leaving the scene is an offence) that actually negatively affect people's lives, it would be a waste of time.

Anyone else had the thought that the culprit may have left £1,200 in cash but someone got there before the owner ????? 
Clearly totally implausible, that kind of behaviour is too pathetic for words, how could anyone think that £15 is an appropriate apology ? But it's perfectly possible that it was an uninsured driver, so there's no way they were going to leave their details .........

The same thing happened to a friend of mine.
He found his fron bumper partially dragged off and on the floor with a note under the wiper simply saying sorry.
Infuriating is the irection your feeling to in when this happens but still does no justice to the level of anger you feel.
Room, no windows, them, you, bat in your hand, 5 minutes.
