Another scratch in the motor - Page 2

My Dad's had his number plate and wing mirror nicked.

And a friend lost a spark plug. They knew by the note on the windscreen "I needed a spark plug and nowhere is open, sorry"

A spark plug? That's astonishing!

Booo

That is rubbish. I know exactly how you feel, not really got any scratches though but have had a refuse truck reverse into my car taking out the petrol cap and digging a big hole into my car, scratching it as it went, as well as someone or something smashing my wing mirror, which left a little scratch on the car as well. That really got me angry, I have never seen myself be that angry

I would find that funny though to be honest! Prob annoyed at first though

I like that they left a note! lol

Can't say I'd be finding it funny if someone stole something from my car leaving me unable to drive it.

I had the glass from a wing mirror stolen a couple of years ago and was pretty pissed off as it had literally only been replaced the previous day after someone had ripped it off by not knowing how wide their own car was.

My car has actually been keyed 3 times up one side by some little bugger.

It's the reason I like the ratty paint on mine. I simply don't have to worry about it at all and from a distance it looks fine.

Yeah but then again I don't need my car everyday, so it wouldn't be a major issue

I've had my Jeep all of a month and it's now got two VERY noticeable dents in it. I know it's only a 1995 and has 160,000 miles on it, but the exterior was in fairly good shape. Not now, though.

I guess that's what you get for driving a fairly nice vehicle to work at Walmart, though.
