Insurance claim in motion, lets hope its a swift resolve. I think I am going to have to start parking like an idiot across two bays in order to avoid damage in future |

That's crap Lee. Sorry to hear this.
I think I'll also order one having done some reading. The DX20 looks good at £120 from Amazon.

Judging by the impact, I am certain they knew they did it, but its the usual case of people just not respecting other people's property, I really hope that there is CCTV footage so that I am not left footing the bill |

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MWXUKEY/ Recording quality is certainly very good though. As an example, here's me leaving Mackie in Glasgow last week: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pao9x3qsvs...N0215.MP4?dl=1

I have also suffered damage done by invisible individuals, we both really feel for you.
Nice clear recording, and I also use 64GB SD cards in my Roadhawk Dashcam. Mine does not have the enclosed battery so cannot do the "parked" monitoring. Looks like I'll have to save some more pennies for an upgrade. As an aside I notice rainspots on your bonnet Mark. Naughty boy, letting the OCD lads down. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Sorry to hear about your damage: it's borderline immoral not 'fessing when you've done something like this - and doesn't that count as "leaving the scene of an accident" and therefore actionable on that basis?
I know how you feel though - I've had my car (the Tesla, not the S8, thank God...) driven into three times in the year I've had it ![]() Hopefully you'll get a result soon... |

So Markerstudy wanted me to give it to the cowboys at Prestige in Northampton (who aren't Audi approved) or bundle it up to Leicester - neither work for me, so I insisted on Castle Coachworks who are Audi approved but up until recently were on the Vision network and on the approved supplier list for Markerstudy. Being as they aren't on the Markerstudy list and my insistence, I may be liable for any difference in repair costs between their suppliers and my chosen supplier.
I tried arguing the toss but they pointed me to a line in the terms of business when I took the policy out - gits. Moral of the story, read the small print and be careful who you chose, make sure you switch if you aren't happy when it comes to renewal time ![]() |
