Sorry to hear that mate.
I've had some of that in the past too, with my job.

jayt43 · 16th October 2007, 20:37

So you're saying it was an inside job?

Seriously though, was it just the glass, or did they destroy each entire unit?

Big bummer all the same

If you know who it was i would get *** back!

Sore one! I would ***! Only joking lads - I would just cause you lots of pain.

But I was wondering how much it cost to get the replaced if something like that happened. Some bird did that to one of my Dad's cars that I was driving once cause she thought me and her fella were upto no good (which we weren't). So I just want to be prepared lol!

Sort of like Tesco then? Only I guess clubcard would take on a whole new meaning

On second thoughts, maybe I'll leave the humour to Charles in future

Unknownsoldier · 16th October 2007, 21:39

That in my opinion, ges beyond the pale, I'd ***.

Good news , well nearly only £467 to repair

I know why your mirrors were trashed illegal, as after sacking someone, I have in the past, had a car given the treatment.
What I just cannot get my head around, is why cars are damaged without any reason these days..
When I was a young lad, my mates and I would see a brand new E Type Jag parked.
We would have a really good gander at it and give it the walk round, but wouldn't think of damaging it. Good luck to the owner and - one day, I will have one of those, was our usual comment.

Folks, I've had to give this thread a good clean up, because of so many rule breaks. Please remember that there is to be no swearing and nothing illegal here.

Thanks.

do you know what I think the same, when I say say a skyline I will just drool over it (not on it), and just admire it, certainly not damage it! I just dont understand it at all, what do they benifit? do they think they look 'cool' smashing cars? if they want to look cool why cant they get a job and save up and buy them selves a car, thats more 'cool', so i think its just jeolosy, what idiots

Perhaps it roots in the relative impunity of such things, some 30 years ago if they were caught they would get some real puniskment (in terms of a salty fine or even jail time) - today they get "probation" and if they break it... they get another
