I have only had my Z4 a month, no dents or marks when I got her....now I have 5 dints on the passenger door! I always park miles away from other cars in car parks, Tescos etc, but seem to attract everyone to park as close as they can to me!!
 
I know your pain, Just had a paintless dent removal guy do my car as I had a couple I did not like anyway 3 pannels later and £80 to get it sorted out very pleased :thumbsup:
 
Some tool put a small dent in my rear quater and marked the paint with there door. I have another small paint mark on the drivers door from the same thing. I honestly will not take my zed many places now due to people bashing it or knocking it with no care what so ever. I have only owned the car nearly a year now and im about to pop to the body shop to get these little niggles sorted, also get the front bumper redone while im there. I always end up driving my van from fear of leaving my car somewhere it may get knocked or scraped. I very much doubt i will spend much on a car again as i feel limited to where i can actually go in it.
 
Feel your pain. No matter how much you take precautions. And your eyes always go where the problem is.

Stopped using the zed as my dailer driver for exactly that reason. Too much to worry about. Now have a shed for daily drive and commute. Not too bothered where I park it.

I feel you pain though... :cry:
 
I feel for you too.....

The world seems to be divided into kinds of car drivers - those who care about their cars and those who don't give a sh*t about their own, let alone anyone else's..... the number of dents, bumps and scratches that I've had to have removed over the years. It boils my blood just thinking about it.....
 
I have a fresh ding just behind my fuel filler cap from last week. I stopped at services and had the "park miles away but out of sight vs park where I can see it whilst drinking my coffee and doing some work" debate. Chose the latter... When someone parked next to me initially they were very careful, the next guy though opened the back door of his novelty brush salesman white Astra to chuck his goody bag in before leaving and I could just tell that whilst he initially pretended to be careful, when he let the door go he'd banged my car. :x

I was enraged, but I couldn't do anything about it as I had my PC out, phone etc. all around me and I couldn't just run out and leave it all behind. And he took off too fast anyway. Asshole. Couldn't even see his reg as a cash delivery van had parked in the way :(
 
Last week in Sainsburys Dundee..... Unf*ckingbelievable

It was Wednesday morning, the car park was empty

Even so, I parked miles from the front doors

I even took over two spaces, Bang in the middle

I ran in to shop, 10mins max

Came out theres a car parked 2" away from me

Maybe not even 2"

In disbelief I walked over to the woman (who thank god was still sitting in the drivers seat)

"Please tell me why? "

"Why What" she said

"Why the f**k you have parked there"

"It's a public car park I can park where I want" came her reply

"If you open your door and hit my car" (which would be inevitable)

"There will be trouble"

"look" she said....."I'm shaking in my boots" "now f*ck off"

You get a classy female shopper in Sainsburys Dundee :D

"Open your door,hit my car and I'll jump on your bonnet.......... over and over again" I retorted

"Try it" she said............ "open your door then" came my reply

By this time I'd made my mind up, if my car was hit

She would have 16st jumping up & down on her bonnet

It was like "The Gunfight @ The OK Corral"

She looked at me, I stared right back :x

Eventualy she pissed off......................... Calling me a "F*cking Nutter" ...............I'm a respectable 53yr old :)

I think by this time she knew I was going to keep my promise

But why should I have to make an arse of myself?

And if I'd been another few minutes in the shop, what damage would she have caused

Makes you wonder................

And yes :thumbsup: I would have :wink:

Proper LOL :rofl:

I do miss Scotland :D
 
the same happened to me in morrisons...years ago in my old cav Sri...fat bitch clanked her door into mine, i asked her why she'd done it, she replied "it's only a car...". blood on fire i got into my car, reached across and opened the passenger door and twatted her car 3 times, reversed out, wondow down, smiled calmly, "sorry, only a car..."

she had that look on her face that only the really gormless can do, where the bottom lip drops, and drops, and drops a bit more.

i felt slightly better.
 
You know what it always seems to be the fat lazy people who dont aspire for anything because all they can think about is stuffing their fat faces.

Thats why i now resort to keeping a bottle of battery acid in my car.

:fuelfire:

Despite the car park being empty this is likely to annoy people who will look at your parking, say "bloody BMW drivers" and park right next to you out of spite.
