_stoke Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I was at work tonight when I got a phone call from a friend asking if I was aware that my front bumper was hanging off. No one saw anything ... so no reg plate or witnesses. Phoned the police as I thought nothing could be done apart from put it on record and give me a ref number. Wish someone had saw it or even if the person was a decent member of society and had left contact details and faced the consequences. Proper pissed off ... I'm a student in my final year of university trying to better myself and I work hard in a part time job whilst I'm not at University. http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/6420/31032009080.jpg http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5967/31032009081l.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I hate scum like that! Seems that there is an ever increasing number of drivers that just drive off from the scene of accidents, what ever happened to pride in society.... taking responsibility for one's actions!

_stoke Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 The wing is kaput too though, dented and scratched rather deep. Not worth the hassle and money to fix as the rear arches have got the cancer that is rust. I would have loved for the person to be caught so I could get some funds for a fix or a new car.

Matt86 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Gutting, sorry to see that, being a fellow student I know what you mean about trying hard and having things mess it up, Im at the situation where I cant even afford a car at the moment. Can you just bung on a crap bumper and use the car until you have graduated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie_Si Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Unfortunately the fact of the matter is that if someone hits another car, and no-one witnessed it, then they are just gonna take off.Check other people's cars, like fellow employees and regular customers. You never know, you might get lucky and catch someone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisxn Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Why not try puttin flyers on everyones car? its a bit of a longshot, but someone may have been looking out the window when it happened.... Could at least give you a make&model, then you know what you're looking for with some damage on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_stoke Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 Shite happens when you park in a public place i've got an unpainted bumper you can have if you can come get it Thanks for the grateful offer, but I don't see it worthwhile to be fixed. As said I'm just about to finish University so will hopefully get a proper full time job rather soon, as soon as I do so I'll be in the search of a 1.8 or a GTI model. It happened outside my house pretty much, we know the neighbours and have asked everyone. Unfortunately the majority of people were at work. It has got to have done some serious damage to their car/van too. Looks like it has been hit by the wing mirror, so hopefully the T*at who hit it has some nice dentage and paint missing up their wing, bumper and even door. Hope karma comes around to bite the person in their ass too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
