I parked my car at work in the staff car park. It is a hugh car park with lots of space. When I return to my car at night when there are only about ten cars left. A lady runs over to me and says "I am really sorry. I have hit your car!"
I went to have a look expecting a minor scratch or dent in the bumper, but noooooo, she has done this.....
Check the post below for a pic. Thx Neil.H
I cannot believe the damage she has done... and by reversing out of a parking space in which a competent driver could turn a bus!
I am really p!$$ed.
To make matters worse, she then went on to joke about women being bad drivers and all...............

when I was 'shunted' in a queue if traffic by a staling driver I had less visible damage, I require a new bumper, number plate, number plate surround, new welded slam panels underneath! and the boot checking.
