I just went outside to move my new car inside, had it for 3 weeks to find someone has engraved "dry me" on the bonnet, someone has kicked the bonnet in two places and someone has decided to slide across it with there butt causing more scratched. I heard kids walking by and my dogs were joing nuts at them, then they moved on. If I have of been there, I would have smashed them!!!

Sorry M8 .. :(  ... I'd have a fit if that happened to me. I do a lap of my car every time I park in a carpark to check if someone has marked our car with their door or trolley...

Was this a 1 off or does this type of vandalism happen all the time to cars/property in the area?

The problem is, if they are caught they will probably be below the age and only get a telling off.

And there I was watching some cr@p on BBC this morning about how we don't give kids the respect they deserve "cause their not all bad you know".

Somedays I feel I am being really hard on my 4 yr old, I am hoping that this means she'll grow up with a bit of respect both for herself and those around her and not turn into the kind of brat that gets away with this sh1t!

Feel for you

I just noticed the wiper blades. Mine, and many others I've seen pictures of, are of the single flat rubber blade variety. Those in the picture are the spring loaded clamping type. Did you change them justincase?

i really understand so i am really sorry!

i've been driving my beloved i30 for more than one year now. the front bumper,the rear bumper, both left and right sides have been hit, and deep white marks in the pain.rear left taillight broken (gipsy brawl poor car got in the way,they managed to to pull out a door handle but it got in anyway,but i smashed those suckers right there - i practiced karate and kickboxing for 8 years) i have 1 point in all 4 doors thanks too all those kind people with sheet-cheap cars who open their doors "gently" touching mine.
rear right rim severly scratched - great driver didn't give way and hit me straight in the rim and scratched a little of my spoiler.

this is how things work in romania,people don't give a sheet about other people's property...the good news is that this week i'm renewing my insurance and hopefully by the end of the year my car will be good as new. sorry for the long story :)
