.....I've got my first flipping scratch, oh and a lovely dent to go along with it. Can only think it happened when I was out getting lunch yesterday at Tescos or Sainsburys. Feel gutted, I know these things happen to all of us at some point but why can't people be a bit more friggin careful [:@]

I know its a bit naughty, but i keep a small booster seat in the back if my car, so when i go to tescos i park in the parent & toddler spaces. Then move the booster seat to the front seat:D

I know it's too much to ask for every car to be in perfect condition but I've kept mine spotless since I got it and now feel like I can't be bothered to even clean it. Will be speaking with the dealers next week see what the damage to get the..........er.............damage repaired is

Absolutely gutted for you mate. Its so annoying. A bloke once did it to my 2 week old Impreza, and lets just say his car was worse than mine when I left the car park! lol.

Don't lose faith in the car though mate, most cars will have far worse, and it'll only stand-out to you because you know its there.

I wouldnt wory about it fella, bought my Mk5 FR on the Monday... some bird drove into my rear on the Friday, scratched my rear right wheel arch and pulled out the bumper by about 2mm.

S**t happens, just not worth getting worked up over.

Not dents, more like wierd scratches which seem to be imbedded in the paint. Tried polishing them out but to no avail. Will see if I can pics up to show you.

i found one of those types near my passenger door. havent tried polishing it out yet, thought it was dirt at first when i washed it today but didnt go away. Annoying but nobody else would notice.
