Washed the pride and joy tonight and just as I was finishing with the chamois, there it was on the drivers door a long crease. For years I have had access to a private car park with wide bays. I have just moved buildings and now have to park in the main public car park where the bays are tighter. I always park in an end bay to minimise this risk, but alas the inconsiderate souls have no morals. I also check the car every time I walk up to it; so it was definitely Mr Rust Bucket peugeot parked next to me today. (Not noticeable with the car adjacent).

I will now be scouring the ads for a dent master in the MK area and will be out of pocket. Moreover if the side protection bar obstructs access I will have a car with less than 1300 miles on the clock with a nice door crease. Fuming doesn't do it justice.

Indeed TC.

Has anyone any experience with dentwizard.co.uk?

I should add its well documented I am not a lover of smart repairs

 

[Darren C]

Cheers Deks. I will be looking for PDR given the paint is not broken. Had a PDR repair on my A2 and it was a fantastic job. Just concerned about the reinforcement bar being in the way and I am aggrieved at the cost I can do without incurring.

Hope you get it sorted soon.

My two scratches seem to have happened in the car park of a posh pub, must be a rich jealous type

To quote a phrase we use on nissansportz when that happens - it boils my piss to hear this.I hate it when people show no care and respect to others peoples' property

 

[Darren C]

Nice quote Paul...

Thanks all for your sympathetic ears; much needed and appreciated.

Well, I rang around a few specialists today and managed to secure a visit from Excel Dents just after lunch. Great customer service. Steve the nice chap from said company spent around 20 minutes perfecting his craft - result; voila a perfect unmarked finish.

Chuffed to bits to be honest to have the car back to top notch status. I just wish I could get my hands on said inconsiderate soul and shake them upside down to the tune of 100 notes. £72 for the repair, the rest for my sleepless night.

Great result, it is just a shame the moron dented in it the first place, Tc

 

[Darren C]

Thanks TC; I share your view.

I have today reverted to a bay that I used to park in many years ago. Result is an unnecessary 10 minutes worth of exercise to the office, but the gain (besides improving my fitness), is that I now park in an end bay that I could park side ways in...
