In asda last week I saw a brand spanking Aston martin parked up. Two absolute sheds parked either side. Me and the missus looked at each other. On the way out, the driver was sat in it and I made a comment about him being insane. "What should I do?" he said " Keep it in the garage and look at it now and again?"

I don't bother where I park Omega these days as station car park attracts quite a collection of scrapes - some rub out easily others not. I keep saying I will treat the old girl to a makeover but I know this will be a green light to get a scrape within 2 days and will just get me irritated.
I have managed to keep the Phaeton free of scratches for 4 years now as I park miles from anywhere when I can and sometimes take 2 slots if I think I can get away with it.

in all seriousness i'd never hurt anyone. but if that happened to me id do something to her car. id probably regret it after but the red mist wuld descend.

I think you can use them as long as you got a permanent live feed

Just watch the battery drain if leaving permanently connected... although the better systems such as the Roadhawk one has a collision sensor so will trigger if the car is knocked etc :y

I go down checked and thought I can buff out the black bumper traces.. it was dark and very crowded traffic so I didnt take any details.. later under proper light I discovered bumper paint was fractured in several places and its is scratch resistant laquer.. not good.. :( time to cry together :'(

I think with some folks they just damage a vehicle just because its far superior than theirs :( Jealousy an all . The paint isnt scored or anything , just 2 long black marks that wont rub off with a finger :(
steve, do you have full pics? :)

Car paint needs prepared for winter with a good cut and wax anyway , will do a panel at a time and see how it goes ;)

Properly cut back and polished and anything thrown at it over the winter should simply rinse/wipe off :y
