Default 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
