I'm glad it's not just me!! LOL :grin:

I always park at the far side of the car park or the biggest space wherever I go, much to the GF's displeasure!!  The one time I parked in a multi storey in a normal space I picked up a dent and cost me £50 to sort.

I agree with other comments that you should speak to your neighbour and hint about how you love your car, good luck but I hope your pride and joy stays as it should!

I am the same more paranoid than pedantic. The kids round here are a nightmare with scooters footballs bikes. NEver play by there own house of course.

Then last month I woke to find a massive dent and scuff in my drivers door can't blame any one as didn't see it, exactly a week later the girlfriends neighbour reversed into my rear qaurter and bumper. Now fighting with solicitors and insurance great.

The door alone I got quoted 700 needs a new skin to be spot on no filler.
