Dilated 0 Posted May 2, 2004 Went to a restaurant with the lady last night in Leeds and I parked down a quiet street with no one around but quite a few cars parked up, so it looked safe. Came back to the car after the meal, drove back home and noticed a scratch down the side of the car. It's only at the read quarter panel, semi deep in parts then lightn, then deep again - just starting before the fuel filler cap going accross it and a bit after it towards the rear lights. HOW ANNOYED AM I??? And to top it off I went to go out today and the back tyre was flat - took it down to kwik fit (only place open!) to get the tyre repaired if possible - but it turns out that there is a slight hole at the top of the sidewall. This size/shape/position of the hole leads me to believe this was also done last night. Looks like it has been punctured purposely. WELL ANNOYING! Jealousy is an awful thing. =[ Anyone have any tips on polishing the scratch out at all? I'll post pics later on when i get home tonight. Also, need to get hold of a toyo proxy tommorow in the leeds area? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

too hot 0 Posted May 2, 2004 Dilated, Sorry to hear that mate,it is just some mindless w*****,who has total disregard for other peoples property.Ideally what you want is to catch him/her and break his fingers one by one :wink: I had the same thing happen to me,no not the broken fingers---the keyed car :!: I have been looking at the possibility of getting a company like "Chips Away" to paint in the scratches,dunno how good they are,but it is much cheaper than having the whole side resprayed :) Has anyone else had any experience of these types of companies :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanA 0 Posted May 3, 2004 Gutting! I sold my Golf to a guy called Rich who runs this company: http://www.auto-kraft.co.uk/ He's based in Leeds so might be worth giving him a bell to see how much he'd charge. Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
