Default Retard steals car and rams it into a wall!

Some idiot stole a car and instead of reversing it out of the space selected first and rammed it into a wall luckily the police caught him sadly it was my car!

Some tit in our building of 11 flats buzzed a pair of clowns into the block. First they tried a door with someone in the flat who called the police and then they moved on to my door.



Reebok classics apparently which says a lot!

They turned all of my drawers out and left with a laptop in a bag and a digital picture frame. For some reason they looked at my camera bag and decided the

This will end up coming out of your insurance.

You are the victim twice over... sorry to see this buddy, at least one has been caught, you may have a chance to claim something in court.

Learn from this. Hide your keys even in the day.

Good luck getting the car sorted fast.

Sorry to see that. There are some ####ing tossers in the world that deserve to take a very short walk off a very high building.

At least it looks fixable.

I can't believe they sent community support bods when they get a report of someone trying to get into a house. I'm surprised they even detained one of them!

Sorry to hear about this Wingnut.
This kind of thing makes me really angry. If there is any consolation, at least they didn't get it onto the road and kill someone (other than themselves of course).
Hope you get it fixed with minimum of fuss.

Sorry to hear this, my son says I drive mine like its been stolen - which is funny - what wouldn't have been funny is if these idiots had gotten out into the streets. Your pillar did us all a community service.

Good luck with the repairs

Good luck with the repairs, could very easily be a right off though, depends on structural damage on the front members and suspension.

PS don't forget thats the worst side of the front end to hit, the air pump is behind there.

MAKE SURE that the pump is 100% and the bodyshop doesn't cut corners by re-using the old one and repairing the brackets. Those pumps are tempramental as it is let alone after a mighty wack.

ALSO ENSURE that you get a full geometry set up on the claim. You will 99% chance find that the bodyshop will not have the facillities to do this so get Chris to do it on a call out and charge the bodyshop. This sort of thing gets done all the time.

Need any help, PM me.
