 :signLOL:

Its not too ad to be honest, Andy Rear bumper only..

Was sat at some lights, I just happen to look in the rear view mirror to was the rear window and noticed the guy behind had his head down fiddling around for something. Then he just rolled/drove into the back of me (it was a Mitsu FTO so auto, so guess he just took his foot off the brake...)...

As I said, its only the rear bumper that needs sorting and maybe the parking sensors..

Sorry to hear that, Damo. Is the guy 'happy' to foot the costs?
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Got crashed into.....  :sad1:

Hard to take hearing that. It is taking me some time getting over wrecking and accepting that she's been damaged. Although the repairs seem top quality, you still have to hope it was all put together in top shape.

We took another trip up to the dealer to collect my high level rear brake light.

While I was there, I took the opportunity to discuss my recent service with the service manager as I had concerns that the tech had just went on a tick box spree, rather than actually doing some of the service. The thing that highlighted it to me was the fact that they are supposed to check all interior lights including the glove box. Well my glove box light hasn't worked for a couple of months when I was attempting the LED conversion and the tech had ticked it off to be all fine....!

All I did was point out to him that it undermines my confidence in the service as what else have they just ticked off without checking? Anyway, there wasn't much he could do/say other than promise to have a word with the tech in question. It was semi worth it, as I got this as a gesture of goodwill. Only problem is, it's not FST.
