Someone keyed my car....
Went out this morning to find someone has keyed the bonnet of my A8. Approximately £400 worth of damage! Need to get the whole bonnet resprayed and the front wings blended in. Great!!
Had an altercation with an a*&^hole in a Rover 45, and was racially abused by him on Tuesday. Seems too much of a coincidence that one day later my car is damaged. I did report it to the police, but they said I could be charged since he had passenger and he could make a story about my driving! 2 against 1. No justice in this world.

What the Hell?!
Is this some sort of current craze vandalizing 8's? I'm seriously getting wound up now its like someones watching this forum then targeting A8 Owners. I know how you must feel guys - adding to it racial taunts it takes the living ****. I think we need to have a A8 owners Emergency Batter the Fook out of these scum justice meeting then pay systematic visits to these gutless wonders. What happened to you Singh?

Scary stuff...
Plenty of nutters around for us to worry about though. Some of them just do it for 'fun' becuase they're jealous someone has worked hard to get something they're too fecking lazy to get themselves. Where in the 'West' are you?

Mines not as bad as 4.2 TDI Scotlands, but it still hurts. It is just a little longer then a middle finger and I can feel it using my nail so its deep. On the bonnet near the light, I'm taking it to my detailer on Saturday to have a look. He is going to try and get rid of it but it just means less money to spend at A8 parts this month, if it at all, as I just can't justify throwing so much money at her

It makes me just so angry. We should have a 'Cut out Petty Crime' law that allows us to be unnecessarily brutal to these scum.
So So angry   Where's my Broad Sword..........

This is feckin' rubbish!!!
I have never been able to understand why scumbags do this. What does it give them? Do they get off on it, or are they just mindless to55ers who have nothing better to do?!?!? Hope you both get your mota's sorted, as you must be feeling quite ****e right about now.

Mortified for all involved - I too just dont get what satisfaction is to be gained from damaging someones motor.... Slash the tyres if you must, they're easier to change
 My sister in laws car was keyed a couple of months back, only a 56 plate astra, nowt special, but still they ran a nice mark down both sides for no good reason.....

My bonnet scratch starts at the base of the A pillar on the passengers side, goes all the way down to the front light, then all the way across to the other driver's side. Some of it is superficial, but parts of it are down to the metal. And the passenger's door has been done. FANTASTIC!!!
Feeling pretty low at the moment. I LOVE my A8!! Had a Q7 before, which only lasted 10 months, and then got this. WOW, blew my head off. So comfy inside, and so fast!!! Seen 155 on the speedo once, and you wouldn't know you were doing it. Needs it's MOT this month, and I was gonna get the new style rear lights fitted. Maybe not now, since I have got to spend the money getting it fixed. Trying to keep calm, but if I ever catch the guy who did it, you'll see me on BBC news!!!!! Psyche - near Hamilton.
