Some fker had driven in to the side of the car and fked off,

Thanks a lot you and hope one day you get what you deserve.

Get a second hand door off ebay, and get the dent sorted shouldn't be too expensive fingers crossed.

Are you sure somebody wasn't trying to break the lock? Just looks that way to me!

Very annoying that, happened on my van a couple of years back.
Bill was 1600 and my insurance rocketed as never caught the guilty party.

OUCH! Very nasty.

On the upside, that's a lovely finish you have on that paintwork!

No CCTV or offices that overlook the carpark? Was is an office carpark? If so, culprit will probably be back sometime.

If you do this at least a door for a 107 should be quite cheap.

OR...she damaged it accidentally against a post and told you that. Just saying....

[YorkshirePudding]

No CCTV, parked at the side of the road and she would have told me if she'd have hit something.
It looks like it has been backed in to by a truck as the damage is quite high on the door.

Looks like I will have to go through the insurance as there's quite a bit of damage to the rear quarter panel, though will look at a second hand door.

That looks more like it was kicked, than hit by a car

Certainly looks like two points of impact.

[Turn7]

That just may push out - maybe a bit creased though.


eta - weird impacts - thats not been hit by a car I reckon.

that doesnt look like crash damage

1 - metal to metal would tend to cause paint damage

2 - there are two impact points

looks like its had a kicking.

Fat Gareth in Accounts has leant on it while talking to Mandy who was parked in the next bay.

My car got kicked in (mk4 R32 Golf) on the second failed attempt at nicking the alloys. It did look similar to that - no scuff marks, double dent, etc. I'd say failed break in or you've upset someone.

[YorkshirePudding]

Guess we'll never know, though in the top dent there's a bit of a swirl in the paint that looks like it has come from something metal hitting it.

fk it I'm off for a

Same thing happened to my old man's e class about 10 years ago. Dad parked outside my Gran's house and it was so obvious that the person pulling out of the drive opposite just crunched his side door. Makes your blood boil that people don't have the decency to own up to this type of thing!
