Ok... So Vicki works in a bunch of supermarkets and we are well used to the cars getting the living shite kicked outta them on a daily basis. Doors, tolleys and the usual dumb thoughtless stuff the average moron does every day.
BUT..... Some arsehole in a blue vehicle with yellow undercoat has really given the poor old Magna a major thump...
Dirty great smash in the side that wrote off the rear of the front guard and the leading edge of the drivers door, ripped off the trim, indicator repeater just gone... This is a huge hit and there is no way you could not have noticed it happen. The impact site is 400mm X 400mm and seriously deformed one of the stongest parts of a pretty solid car. It looks like some moron has swung into the car park next to us (impact appears rear to front).
Note on the car? Nope....
Witness in Kapiti Pak N Save car park? Nope?
Video of the car park? "Took that out as it cost too much but those smashes happen every day"
Excess on our policy $300 and loss on no claims bonus...
Thanks arsehole... Hope someone does it to you one day...

Bugger! Shit luck, but the sad fact is... they'll probably never get the bad karma for it. Some people will never be respectable members of society.
What a bummer mate.
I hope this person can’t sleep because of the guilt and catches a nasty dose of galloping knob rot. Even if he's a she.

Thanks Biff but...
Talked to the supermarket dude today in the hope someone saw something...
He just sighed (sees it almost daily) and told us to remember that there are a shite load of people coming in pissed all day to pick up another cask of wine (often kids in tow) or in uninsured cars, un rego'd cars, 'borrowed' cars etc etc. Most of them just don't care... (has life got that hopeless?)
In the supermarket trade they get pretty jaded and un shocked at human behaviour... And I'd have to say, having help Vicki more than once I can understand how that is... Gotta say though, I'm a bit gutted...
In the words of Peter Green.... 'Oh Well'

Kapiti... Sigh... Supermarkets... SIGH... Our car has dents alll over it :(...
I've had what I assume to be a 4wd somehow back over it at speed at woolies and run up on to the bonnet set off the alarm and drive away (c**t). Every door is dinged... Even the boot. There is no unmolested panel, I think some cocks take pleasure in it, secretly humping the panels until they buckle.
Sad.. But Kapiti is the land of the dent magnet and panel humper.
That's why I like bikers... Park too close, just move the mirror carefully out of the way and carry on, move the mirror back... we are all cowboys/girls... You don't touch anothers horse if you can help it.
Sedge.
ps You don't drive a 4wd do you ?

They'll get what's coming to them Paul.
And you never know, you may actually bump into them (er, not literally, ok maybe then) some day- it's a small world.

Dick heads! Hope it did as much damage to their car at least!

Sorry to hear this Paul how high up on the side of your car is the damage.
Up here most Dickheads drive 4X4s and they don't give a shit about ather cages. good luck in finding them :mad: :brick:

Bit of a bummer Paul. Only thing I can suggest is to keep an eye out on the same day and time. If you spot the car block up the exhaust. Usually the last place that is looked at. Another good one (at night) is a can of black (mat finish) spray paint all over the front windscreen. No car alarm problems and the tossers don't notice this untill they get in side and turn their lights on.

Shit thats not good....
I have a mate that lives and shops there... NOPE it aint her...
She would leave a note.... in fact she got hit down there as well.
So you have some real bad drivers down your way....
They must got got their license in the lucky dip.... arseholes.
Or they paid $400 for their license.
Hope it aint gonna cost you too much to repair it.
Get the cost and then compare it to your insurance no claims...
It may not be worth going throu your insurance.
But it sux's big time.
I know some people park there cars well away from anyone else, just so this kinda thing dont happen to them... and man they have to walk miles ..lol ...to get to the shop.

I'll try to take a picture or get a copy of one the panel beater will take to give you an idea of the damage but I can assure you there is no way the person that hit our car could have done this without knowing...
The damage is quite high up (= top of the wheel arch) and the colour (blue) left goes all the way up so I assume it is either a 4wd or a vehicle with colour coded bumpers..
2 major panels damaged, trim damaged, light smashed, wheel trim gone - It will be like $1,500 minimum to fix which could easily write a car like this (1993 Magna sw) off......
That will really annoy me as it's a grouse car and I just stuck 2 new tyres and rear shocks on it. Going really well...

And 4WD owners (in particular) wonder why they're hated. So many of these dings are down to them.

The NSW Coroner has called for a ban on them (4x4s) within 200 mtrs of school zones as another kiddie was run over last week due to their poor visibility.

Well lets not turn this into an I hate 4x4 thread.. I'm not keen on em either but there are a lot of vehicles that 'could' have done this.. All the blue ones anyway...

The Highlanders? oops wrong thread.
Bugger, Paul, dosent that just rip yer undies. The wifes car parks up there every day and it has little scratches and dents all over too. You could go around the panelbeaters and ask if a vehicle that colour comes in for repair? If it is a commercial vehicle the owners may want it fixed (Co. image?)
What shade of blue? I will keep and eye out for it.
And this is my 500th post...now not only am I a halfwit, I'm now half a whore!

thats pretty rude Paul. I used to think my wife and her folks were paranoid about ALWAYS parking the cars in a parallel spot or miles away from anywhere else to avoid door dings but i'm starting to see the wisdom in it now. (not that parallel parks are a guarantee either but at least the pillock who mashed our front number plate in last week didn't get the paint work)

Watched a 4X4 van covered in dried mud pull up nice'n'close to one of my 'flasher' cages in a supermarket car park. Stupid cow opens van door right into the side of me pride'n'joy as I watched from the check-out. :mad:
Said cow has a quick scan of the horizon to see if she had been spotted then slammed her door shut and waddled of into the supermarket!!
Got back to pride'n'joy and sure enough ANOTHER ding I hadn't requested, nobody in the van to vent my spleen at so 'wrote' a nice message on the offending dried-mud covered door with the driest dirt-laden rag I could find, you could read it 50 yards away and it wasn't pleasant and should the van ever be washed the message would still show ground into the paint. :whistle:
Of course that was a long time ago before I was sensible'n'law-abiding :msn-wink:

An Asian woman did the same to our car while I was sitting in it. I couldn't even curse her out properly for all the so solly's. It's got to be justifiable homicide to kill door dingers.
