Default Seriously some people just don’t give a f**k

Bit of a rant but WTF it might just be an old focus to the majority of people but this has really pissed me off. Washed the car this morning and there’s a scuff along the wing and door and a small ding bellow door moulding height it’s hard to make out in pics but it’s silver so it’s not easy to pick up






so ok I’ll buff it out not happy but these things happen. Few hours later mrs nips out and takes my car as it was behind hers in the drive gone 15 minutes comes back. I’m going out to get something from the garage and it’s like WTAF is this shit. Looks to me like someone on a pushbike has smacked it as there’s a weird rubber scuff along with the big asses dent and scratches. But it has to be on the 1/4 panel ffs. I’ve had it a year done 30k in it and done a few repairs put it in for an mot yesterday and passed no advisories and then this shit really not a happy camper today.

On a happier note just had a gender reveal with my daughter and she’s having a girl :-(





the scuff on the bumper was already there when I bought it. It’s going off the road end of next month for the winter and a few changes but really wasn’t planning on any body work as the shells mint. Just pissed off and Mrs is like it’s just a dent you’ll fix it anyway totally missing the point :-(

People are getting worse, they treat people the way they would treat them on the net.

Congratulations on the reveal

It’s an absolute piss take. A bit more consideration for other people’s property would be a good place to start. Probably better that I don’t know who it was.

Couldnt look at it like that so had to fix it. 1/4 is double skinned so had to be filled. I ain’t no panel beater but I’m more that happy with how it turned out. Few pin holes need filled with fine filler but looks good to me

I honestly don’t think that they could have done anything with it and it would have still needed painted as it was down to the metal still well pissed off about it.

I watch people drive forwards in to parking spaces all too often when out shopping, also then watch them reverse out without checking the front...too many near misses. The parking at my daughters school is shocking.
