I finally get my Porsche...
...I mean literally walks all over it!
The S2000 went about a month ago now and I've been waiting till i've done a few miles in the Cayman before I posted a review up.
Unfortunately I never expected it to be quite like this, I mean I have been called a w@nker about 600 times now since I got it for no aparant reason but I gathered that was normal anti-porsche behavior and got on with it.
So last night I go round to my mates to show him the car as he's not seen it yet, it's around 9pm in a "nice" residential area, the car is parked off the road and i'm in the house 20-30 minutes.
We walk out to have a look at the car and theres foot prints all over the rear hatch, the rear screen, the spoiler, both rear wings and rubber marks all down the side where they have slid off
So today I have booked a day off work and spent 8 hours polishing scratches off my car, unfortunately I can't get them all out as they are too deep, luckily it's not dented somehow although they have knocked the spoiler out of line so next job is to try and put that back.
I've nothing to really say I still can't believe it's happened, i've no idea why people do these things

Tell the police, they won't do anything, but they might be able to see a pattern and catch the twunts eventually?
Mind you, that requires effort and time not spent catching speeders so...

Sorry to hear that mate. Whatever happened to a simple key-scratch? Can't believe they would have the nerve to actually put a foot on the car!
Hopefully what goes around, comes around and instead of their foot on the rear-end of a Porsche, it's going to be the tyre of a big fat Cayenne on their 'rear-end'. Who said Cayennes were pointless?

Utter bastards.
If it's any consolation, Rick, I caught a lad kicking off the wing mirror on an MX5 once... myself and a mate hauled him into the road and flagged down a conviniently passing police car
They took him away and charged him, and he had to pay for the damage.

Scum like that just don't want people to have nice things because they' re too fec king idle to earn some money for themselves. They would probably done the same to the S. Get it polished up and feck them.

They took him away and charged him, and he had to pay for the damage.I seen a drunk lad jump kick off my Fiat Panda (999cc 'Super' version my i add) when i was 18 returning from a date late at night, my Panda was parked up on a quiet street.
IIRC i collared him and absolutely booted him in the stomach then I took off.
It wasn't so much the fact he dented the Panda it was the sheer cheek!
