One thing that is sure to wind me up is careless toss pots with doors and trolleys.
Only the other week someone on B&Q car park parked so close to me they couldn't possibly have got out without banging their door into mine, so I made sure they got a nice door ding back!

:lol:

At school, the parking is horrendous!! Its scary! I try park mine as far away as them as possible.

Some of them in the morning swing in, and dont give a **** where they park, even if its over 2 spaces, or diagonal.. Its scary!

I've already got one trolly ding in my car, don't want any more, regardless of the year of the car :)

Also, working at a supermarket doesn't help, but i try and park in the old disabled spaces, which aren't used anymore and are larger than normal :)

Yeah i thought about the wind but when i left the car there were no trollys near it and was only gone 10 mins max so sum1 must have moved it there. well calmed down now will just have to get it fixed again and live in hope it doesnt happen again !

Caught someone keying the car next to mine in the local town. He now has a higher voice, walks funny and is considering a new career. Whilst he was holding on to his bruised, probably tiny, balls I took a picture with my phone and waited for the owner of the car (200sx later model thing). He was ****** off but knew the lad who did it, so I guess he'll get his again soon.

Just trying to revive a very useful thread - it's good to have a rant!

Local kebab delivery kid tried to squeeze into a space between mine and another car and left a football-size dent in the rear quarter of my old (93) escort, aaarh :eek:. Luckily, I was outside talking to a friend and heard the crunch, "what you doing?" I asked politely :irked:, to which he replied, "it's not your car is it??"


I couldn't believe he was gonna leave it - and didn't want to go through his insurance. Took some id and got a quote for the work which he paid in full :emps: I was probably a little lucky, but I didn't charge him for the grief or mileage to get the quote... d'oh.

Well jam-88 on this forum will confirm that we were at a meet, some van driver pulled up and reversed into his metro, bout 20 of us, i think he actually crapped his pants :| luckily he was nice about it and gave jamie money to get a new bonnet straight away!
