Look what some pr1cks done

Found this today, gutted. Tried polishing it out but no chance. It's cut real deep. Oh well good excuse to get the whole bumper painted. :sad1:

Sorry to see that mate.

I've had three such incidents since September when I bought it. People are just so careless in supermarkets, they just want to get in and out and don't give a toss what they or their kids do with car doors and trolleys.

Fun Golf: 2016 mk7 R DSG 3 door. Work Golf: 2015 mk7 1.4 TSI GT ACT 5 door.
Gone but not forgotten : mk2 Golf GTI 16v, mk4 Golf V6 4Motion, mk5 GTI Storm Developments Stage 1, mk5 GTI Revo Stage 1, BMW 330ci, Skoda Octavia VRS Revo Stage 2, BMW Z4 Sdrive35i.

Not good especially when people drive off knowing without leaving a note. On a slightly plus side you can respray the whole bumper and get rid of any stone chips!

Gutting isn't it. This is the main reason I hate washing my car - finding new marks. I thought I had some wax residue on a door strip. Turned out that some paint had flaked off right in the middle of the bump strip.

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

you cant avoid it mate

Park between the Lines in a car park,you get dent or a scrape
Park over 2 bays in a car park,you get keyed or spit on
Park in a disable bay,you get evils and an argument
Park in a Parent child space,You get a chavy mum in a piece of crap with a 15 year old kid mouthing off at you

I once parked at the furthest point in a Sainsburys Car Park (Empty),and when i got back some beat up old transit was
parked right next to my car with minimal room for me to open my car door !!!!!!!

you cant win......

Insurance is so expensive these days that most people just wont accept liability for anything because they cant afford the increase.

I feel your pain its happen to me and many others on here.

It sucks big time mate, not long after i got my Golf i use to park in the car park at work and one day i was walking over to get a car to MOT and saw some woman open the rear door of her piece of old sh*t against my rear door, it not only left a 2in red mark on my door it also dented it, i confronted her about it and she said i have no proof, i put both hands on my door and said the thick red mark that is the same colour as your car is a bit of proof, she wouldnt have it, as she was a customer i couldnt go to mad (small village that sort of thing) anyway we had her car in 10 days later for service and MOT, it failed badly (not thro me being hard) and needed a bucket load spent, karma, what goes around comes around, still pisses me off, as that was 2 yrs ago and i havent had the dent sorted yet so see it everytime i look at my car :sad1:

Sickener - Ive had to fix two 'door opening' dents in my rear quarter panels in 18 months , after some tool has opened their door into my car. My GTI is my only car so I have no option but to use it on shopping trips.
