to say i'm very fcuked off right now would be an understatement, ive just got home from work to find my 95 Cinq Sporting with a nice black gash and dent down the drivers door and wing.

No note, no-one knows what happened but it sure as hell wasnt there this morning.

i want to kill someone


Cinq Sporting - and yes, its broom yellow!
 
I know now isnt the time to joke but it probably wasnt another car...more like a gust of wind. You know what cinq's are like!

Sorry!

Do you mean a gust of wind blew another Cinq into the side of Arc's car? I know they're small and light but... ;)

Heartbreaking ... same thing happened to Penny's Tino at work :(

Can the dent be pushed out? It doesn't look as if the metal has been creased ...

i'm gutted, really am - i hate seeing the damage left but.. £400.. i only paid £200 more for the car

if i ever catch who did..

£400 sounds a lot. It does not look that bad from the photo's.

Take the door trim off and push it out best you can, then get another quote. It may be cheaper if you can get another wing as well. Anything you can do in preparation will reduce their time and keep the cost down.

Get some rust stop and touch up kit on that bare metal asap though.

85% of Marea HLX drivers have speeding tickets.... lol they'll have to catch me first.
 
Thats fairly low down that, can't be many cars around with a black bumper the same hight as the dent, was it on a main road or cul-de-sac? I would do a bit of looking at local cars to see if you can find the b@stard.
Are there no scrapyards near you with a decent yellow cinq door might only be £50 or so for a door

theres no scrappys near me with a cinq in them, never mind a yellow one!

the car is now off the road where it can stay till around feb. i'm on the lookout for a new door and i'm going to try pulling the dent out the best i can tomorrow

my road isnt a main road, nor a cul-de-sac. I think it was done by a delivery van. I've looked aronud at local cars and nothing matches up. My guess it was a van, and i'm never going to see it again let alone get any money off them

You could try these guys they are very large breakers, usaly have anything you want I think they deliver, but not sure of prices, may be too much but worth a try. wont cost anything to email them.
