>:(Parked outside my mothers to day, narrow road, only room for one car to pass at a time, when this pratt in a white Escort comes flying past, must have been doing 60+ and clipped my front wing and front bumper. Going too fast to get his number plate. >:(
Got all the paint off, could be worse, front bumper scored, front wing slight buckle, but paint still intact.

Is this the same road where you have a similar experience with another car? Sounds a dangerous place to park :o
Gutted :(

No, the other time was at my mother-in-laws, totally different area.
-
gutted for you pal.
I have only ever side clipped on car, and my wing mirror hit another guys luckly no damage. But i still stopped and checked, its the decent thing to do. Can't stand it when morons just keep on going without a care in the world...
-
Does any damage show?
-
Yes, unfortunately :(
I may be able to touch in the front bumper, shall wait for the warmer weather though to do that.
The ripple in my front wing is another matter, a pro job.
-
Sickener. :(
-
Cant you get it put on crimewatch AA? Forensics are pretty good nowadays :y

Bang out of order mate. Is it a local road/lane only a local guy would know going that fast down there If paint was swopped then maybe a quick drive round local superstore car parks as its Christmas you never know.

My mother (99 years of age and still going strong) lives near to Birmingham University, most of the houses now have been turned into student accomodation, 5 - 9 students per dwelling, average 4/5 cars to a dwelling, sometimes have to park 2 or 3 roads away, it's a large area trying to comb the streets looking for a white escort would be damn nigh impossible.
The thing that gets me, with the amount of cars parked in the area, reducing the roads to single lanes, is the speed these pratts drive up an down the roads.
It is wonderful when they are on a break, it is such a peaceful area.

How about a post at the Campus offering a small reward - students would sell their own mothers for beer tokens (no offence Tunnie) :y
-
Aghhh what a bugger!
Hope it is easy to fix
-
Students Ahhhhh
Our future in their hands ::)
No offence to all those hard working studying students out there and you know who you are :-X
-
It may not have been a student. I'm not taking a knock at students, all I'm saying is there are 1000's of cars parked around the area, and it would be impossible to do a check.
-
no offence taken guys :y
Just to confirm the student life.... i work up today at 12:20 PM ;D
Get dressed have a shower... just in time for some lunch at 1 PM ;D
Then not really much happened until now ;D

Sorry to hear that AA :(
I just hope that one day that plonker will own a nice car and someone does the same to them. What goes around comes around an all that ;)
-
Ooouuuuuch..... I know how you feel. :(
On another note, I'm glad to hear that your mother has reached this advanced age and that she is doing well :y
-
Sorry to hear AA >:(
-
It might be worth telling the police at the station anyhow. They may be well aware of a tosser who often drives recklessly in a white escort in that area. I would think local cops get to know some of the regular morons. But then I don't live in a City.
-
Sorry to hear of your bad luck :( hope you get it sorted swiftly.
Fingers crossed the idiot who did it gets his car slammed, will serve him right if it happens to him.

Oi, I have a Ford Escort, and it's white :(

Didn't you have to change again or did you have your lunch in wet clothes ;D

Being a student, I suspect thats the only time his cloths get washed, except when he brings them home to his poor mum....
