There I was, dawdling around a Garden Centre, Only there cos the other 1/2 wanted to go, when a gracious white haired lady came up to me and said
" do you own a sports car?"
"yes" I said
"A black one...?"
"yes" I replied, in the back of my mind alarm bell were starting to ring, and I realised i was losing my friendly smile
" sorry dear, but someones just reversed into it.."
Porche Cayenne!! could have driven forwards and left the car park, but no. Decided to reverse all over the front of my Tusc.
At least the driver contacted me; full marks and a lovely Lady
The funniest thing is that my insurance company Insists on giving me a like for like car while mine is being repaired. Cant wait to see what it is!!
So c'mon boys and girls, what do you think a like for like replacement might be?
To spice it up a bottle of bubbly stuff for the 1st person to guess correctly!!

Thats gutting. Similar thing happened to my brothers elise. Lying in bed at his girl friends, now wife, he heard a crunch and knew straight away it was the sound of fibre glass getting ripped to bits. It was less than a year old at the time a mark 2.
Hope its all sorted quickly and to a high standard.
I go for porche boxster.

Sorry to hear that, I don't dare leave mine in car parks anymore!
When my Chimaera was scratched and needed some paintwork I got a BMW 630, so I'd guess a BMW 6 series or similar model. Not like for like but hey that's my two pennies worth. Incidentally I found the 630 soooo boring to drive.
Good luck with the repair!

Hey...its not just you!!!
Had the car three weeks...this morning i am parked behind my wife, she asks me to move the car as she is off out, so, start to reverse off, have to wait for a car, the engine dies, and, instead of waiting, she keeps rolling back
...one huge rav4 against the front wing of my little Tuscan...guess who won? 
When i ask why she didn't stop.....i thought you had moved so kept coming, (i didnt think to look in my mirrors?!)....AAAAARGGHH!!!
I was just a little big angry... 
By the way, the horn doesnt work whilst your ignition is off...was busy trying to restart when she hit me.
Hope you get it sorted quick...i really do know how you feel mate.

Hope the damage isn't too bad and you get it sorted soon.My mate who had his Chimaera reversed into by a - surprise surprise - Mercedes ML driven by a woman, was given a Sagaris for about a month, then a Range Rover Sport, then a Range Rover Vogue and I think also a T350 for a week or so..
He didnt really mind that the repairs took around 2 months - and who can blame him...!
But if I had to guess, I would say you're getting a Boxter...
