IKEA is stressful enough without some arsehole (by the look of it in a 4x4), probably some fat bitch with 7 kids, doing this to your car.

This is what i see when i come back to my baby.




So, i go and look for the note on the windscreen, they'll have been honest enough to leave their details. No. Cnuts.

That's bloody appalling I'd be incandescent if it was me. Is it worth talking to the store to see whether they have CCTV covering the carpark and, if so, whether the offending er was caught in the act.....?

looks like they've dropped something heavy on it rather than having been driven into.. If this was the US you could probably sue IKEA.. mind you you probably could these days, just ring one of those accident helplines. Might help get IKEA to find the CCTV footage.

..sorry to see that Ian.

I would suggest a breakers for a new lid or a chat with Scov to see if he can help.

Looks like a clean bootlid..as opposed to a new bumper also.

Good luck with it.

I'd be feckin' furious.

Barstewards, Ian. Hope there's a video, I take it no witnesses.

"No, No, I heard a bang crunch of a car being slowly driven into and squashed but I didn't see a thing!"

Sorry to see this Ian

I hate other road users. Most of them are selfish useless bastards who shouldn't even be allowed on the road.

These sort of people should be shot

I am really sorry to see that your S is damaged. What I cannot believe is that some one has driven off without the slightest shred of decency. File a hit and run with Police and get Ikea to do a bit of searching. Any paint, marks etc left on you car?

It does loo like just a new boot lid, that breaker the other day had a Silverstone S in his yard, give him a call although by most accounts he's having a laugh with his prices.
