Been Reversed into!
« on: June 04, 2010, 12:07:41 am »

Nipped into McDonalds for a deli sandwhich after doing a couple of logs.  A fellow came in and asked if the red sporty car was mine...
He'd come in to tell me he'd witnessed someone reverse into my car and drive off.  Very good of him tbh!  Gave me his number so he could be an eye witness.

By the time Id managed to bring myself to look at it the stupid wench had been back, put a note on my window and drove back off.

So gutted!

Her mother works in the Police so theyve done things by the book.  Maccies manager said it was on CCTV and I reported it to the police.  Going to ring her insurer in the morning.  Tescos, anyone dealt with them??

Pain in the arse is im due to go back to Germany in 2 weeks!!  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Sh*tter





Another thing is id only just had a geometry setup hours before and the b*tch reversed into my wheel  :sad1:

Sorry to hear this mate. I know the feeling, it happened to me last Saturday. At least the person who did it to you had the decency to come back and leave their details. It's just infuriating how inconsiderate and careless other drivers are.

Hope you get it sorted soon. I am just waiting for the bodyshop to call me to let me know when they can take my car in.

Tesco Insurance are underwritten by Direct Line AFAIK and TBH they were a bit useless to deal with. You need to keep on hassling them or they are likely to forget.

I can appreciate the stress. About a year ago, I walked back to my car and saw some red plastic wrapper stuck to the rear wheel. Turned out to be car paint + primer! Someone had reversed into me and run off without leaving a note or anything. No CCTV or anything either. Completely gutted.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
