im sick if idiots turning my car into a sheet of bloody corrugated iron.i got my car 4 months ago and it was flawless, but its already littered with dents(esp the rear quarters) from, dicks that slam their doors open against my car. i always park away from the crowd and try to leave as few sides of the car exposed as possible, but if you use yer car everyday its impossible to keep perfect.
is it that hard to get out of your car without anihilating the one next to you???!
does anyone else get this. its soooo annoying

Some people have no respect for other cars when leaving their own in a car park!
I was walking to my car the other day and could here someone opening their door and hitting the car next to them, and they were like it never happend!!

try parking at the end of a row near a kerb and get RIGHT up against the kerb, unless their wheels park in your bay their door can be opened fully and shouldnt touch your motor (used to work in a supermarket!)

basically u can be nothing less than fussy where you park, even if it means standing on the phone outside your car when the hendersons arrive with all their little %"..t's ! Supermarket car parks, stay away !

i do this everytime i am in work. fuck what others think. if they had some god damn respect for other peoples property in the first place, then i would not need to do it.
ive seen people physically wrench the mirrors on my car out of the way so they can squeeze through the gap as they are too lazy to walk around the car instead.
now everyone who takes pride in their car where i work has started to park over 2 bays so we are all lined up doing it
i hate cunts who have no respect for other peoples property

I was sat in my Dad's merc in asda carpark once, some asian geezer banged his door on my dads motor, and didnt even look at me. So when he went he had a nice long key mark down his doors and a smashed wing mirror on the floor, he also got an asda receipt with "YOU IGNORANT P****" written on it

Sorry but i think this is a little harsh. You should have said something to him there and then rather than doing 5 times as bad as what he did to you. Don't take it like i'm having a go at you, just voicing my opinion

I think the best method is to park next to an expensive BMW or mercedes, they normally look after their stuff, i always do this and avnt had any probs, P.S - i thought keying and smashing sum1s car was a bit harsh 2

Sounds silly but Ive seen some magnetic 'phat' bumpstrips which you can just stick to your pannels which should help protect. Bit daft but they could help you...?

dont park near a merc, those fuckers are the worst, they all think they are kings, ever tried 3 point turning and a merc comes along? they will give you about a foot of room to swing your car around and will beep their horn impatiently, they do this every single time i turn round in the road, ignorant shits

i get very stressed out when people park close to my car, the last car that did it was a vectra, i couldnt even get in my drivers door, so i got in the passenger side, and smashed my door against the side of his car, corsa rubstrips are pretty tough because i left a lovely dent in the side of the vectra. Put window down and punched the passenger mirror off before driving home in a rage of fury.
