B@stards :mad: someone has keyed my car right across my bonnet cant believe it..

must have been tescos car parks :thumbdwn::mad::mad::mad:

how can i get this out without a re spray

it depends on how deep the scratch is, it maybe possible for chipsaway to fix it,

If that happens to a fabia I hate to think what would happen to a flashier car. They are cight runts they really are. My wifes C2 got done end to end on each side 2 weeks after getting it brand new. Devastated is not the word. I feel your pain

Maybe try chips away as said or even Halfords are meant to be doing bodyshop repairs now. I guess tesco won't have cctv. Did you report to the police/insurance?

Gutted for you, maybe Tesco's will have some cctv footage that could be useful.

Hope it's not too expensive to get sorted .

Ouch! sorry buddy!:(

what knob'eds! cctv from tescos will be good to find out who did it. maybe the police?

good luck!

Sorry to hear about that mate, it really leaves a sick feeling in the gut.:thumbdwn:

I kept having it done to my car a good few years back now.I'd just bought a 3 year old Rapid and had a few extras like a bodykit and stuff fitted by the dealer.I kept noticing scratches appearing here and there, and they were gradually getting worse etc.Turned out to be my neighbour keying the it:eek: (Another neighbour saw him and informed me!).

We moved shortly afterwards, and he had a new Poxhall Disastra so in the wee small hours I went round there and keyed every panel and slashed the tyres and for good measure poured paint stripper all over the roof and bonnet.

I know this doesn't really ease your anger, and I'm not saying this is the right thing to do, but if you ever do find out who did it and know where they live, revenge is really REALLY sweet....... And it does make you feel better!

that does make me feel better! it just ****es me off cos when i sell it i will prob get less now because some asbo pikey had a key in his hand and thought he was cool

Which is why some of us thought you'd be better sticking with cheaper car for a couple of years until you get a protected no claims. I've unfortunately come to the conclusion that I'm better buying something that I can easily afford and not that fussed about, rather than pushing myself to afford say an rs in race blue which would attract too much attention.

I don't suppose you had just washed it and it was gleaming? Some folk are just jealous gits

Skorob2007 - I hope the informant wasn't just winding you up to impart some sort of revenge. In that case it would have been to the police station and witness statements and do him for criminal damage.

Don't repair it, just get a touch up pen and do a best job blending it in or use a crayon to cover it in if you're selling to a garage.

No, the informant was genuine enough, but would not make a statement to police - I asked him if he would but refused on the grounds of the bloke being a nutter, which he was.(Typical pikey chav scumbucket druggy to$$er who intimidated people and didn't car about the conseqences).Would love to have seen his face when he got up next morning to see what was left of his car!!!

I feel your pain - someone keyed the wing on my car when I was staying at a mates house, they did the same to his bird's car the same night. I was absolutely livid but there's nothing you can do.

As mentioned by others it depends on the extent of the damage, I used t-cut to soften the edges - that made it less obvious and I have to be fairly close to the car to see it now. The problem is I still know it's there and it was as a result of someone else being a **** so it riles me to think about it even now.

Hope you manage to get it sorted.

I had my vRS done last week all down the side , gonna cost £450 to put right

its someone who lives round my way what little ******** i need to catch someone doing it so i can do what skorob2007 did...

SO ANGRY

Barstewards

sinisters sister had her astra keyed from one end to the other, down to the metal and a wavey effect all the way down. so there rules out touching it up and using go faster strips to stick over them.

i might have a go at filling them in and then do a full Autoglym treatment to it and plenty of wax to keep it all in place. but beleive me i find the little scum ill be keyying his eyes out and i have a good idea who it is too.

Whereabouts in Cambs are you? There was a spate of windscreens being smashed in the Paston area of Peterborough a couple of weeks back, local asboteens.Im staying in Eye village, 3 miles away at the moment which is nice and quiet.

Wisbech, where my house is is a right dump.Im in the 'nicer' part, but still had some to$$ers rip the rear spoiler off a mates BX TZD while it was parked on my driveway in broad daylight!!!

Hanging by the testicles, or nips in female cases, is far too good a punishment for these scum buckets.

im afraid i disagree, i feel that is being too light on them.

Go to a sports shop

Find the toughest looking baseball bat u can see

And then wait

Had mine done a month ago - Saturday afternoon, broad daylight, on the day I departed on holiday. Car gleaming of course.

Its even worse when you suspect a causal relationship between the keying and new business generation for the local bodyshop - count me out of the Caribean holiday, if you know what I mean !

The usual suspects round our way must be on the HMG "Skills train" , they gone on to serial fence wrecking.

There also seems to be a similar causal relationship between the dumping of cars in the residential car park behind my house. You report it to a specially established Abandonned Vehicles Unit, at the local council, London Borough of Harrow - Met Police don't want to know, . They do the usual 28 day routine and then get a contractor tow truck to haul it away. But, hey presto, within a week to month a replacement turns up - John Maynard Keynes would be proud.

So, I don't bother formally reporting them any longer. There's now a Calibra that's been there three years, which the local kids are steadily demolishing on the way home from school and year old passat, which will no doubt go the same way.

Of course, if the area adjoined a location inhabitated by the local councillor, it would be fixed tommorrow.

I figure the Council have got better things to do with my £900 per annum Council for 535 sq ft of property, then subsidsing the local mafia tow truck business. After all, they are so good at closing down libraries, not repairing roads and footpaths, permitting rubbish to be dumped everywhere and allowing the general demeanour of an area to take on the appearance of the back streets of Mumbai on a wet Wednesday - not fogetting, setting-up huge great directorates of know nothing, do nothing career b*stards who are protected from the consequence of their in-action by extensive "Customer Service" set-ups.

You can fully understand the Tony Martin's of this life doing what they did. Personally, after my experience, over a number of years of enduring this boll*cks, if I was on a jury where the accused had been similarly provoked, I know where my sympathies would lie.

What is so galling is the way that the up-tops in the British Establisment are just letting this situation slide toward total anarchy. As long as they get their over -inflated salaries, bonuses, share-options, company cars, benefits in kind, and gated communities, everything else can go to hell and a handbag. Perhaps if these benefits of over-privilege were put in jeopardy, the BE would start engaging with the rest of us in a meaningful way. Perhaps, the first task is to start rectifying the increasing gap beteen rich and poor, which started widening in Ma Thathchers first term in 1979 and hasn't stopped and that's despite the national income of UK economy doubling in size over that period.

Death, in the nicest possible way, to all forms of sub-human t*sser's, and all their friends, relatives and fellow travellers -oh dear, apologies, that sounds like the title of Al Queda's Xmas single.

Rant over.

I've just thought of the suitable penalty for this type of miscreant

- Tarmac crucification -

- is it too late to include it in the latest guidance to Magistrates ?
