To the person who crashed into my parked car last night

[sfmrs]

I came out of my house this morning to see that someone had crashed into my car caving in the wing and marking the wing mirror. Thanks for leaving your red paint on my car. This happened in bawdale road, it's a slim chance but if anyone saw it happen then please pm me. Thanks

sympathy to you mate. My car was driven into the back and written off when I wasnt around luckily a neigbour witnessed and got details. But I didn't get the repairs paid for driver wasnt insured but I think he did get charged by Police!

Happened to me on Barry Road too a couple of weeks ago. Hope someone can help you!

Early Saturday morning- 1.30 am-there were 2 cars racing side by side down Barry Road- too fast to get number plates. Another car came up the other way very soon after- must have been a near miss.

I wouldn't worry to much about 'boy racers' they usually die young.

Ah well, that's alright then, isn't it.

Was he not worth the suing?

Doesn't the Motor Insurers Bureau look after losses like this?

YES.

Happened to a friend of mine who realised that the paint scraps left behind were compatible with the red paint on his neighbour's car....any chance that this could be the same for you, sfmrs?

He challenged the neighbour with an offer of some sort of paint analysis to prove it was him and the culprit coughed up. Just wondered if you have noticed a red car nearby with an appropriate bit of damage?

I know its a long shot [and you mentioned a 'slim chance'] but you never know...?

Happended to me also a few weeks ago on Barry Road, left their red paint too.

Could it have been from a bus on Barry Rd with the red paint?

[emilou]

Happened to us too recently over in nunhead ( also red paint!). Can anyone recommend a good garage who will fix dent/re spray?

[the-e-dealer]

Get the Paint checked its likely to be bus paint.

Yeah usually by crashing into our cars!!!

I went through the insurance in the end as the damage was bad. Libra coach works in herne hill were good though.
