yup me too.
To be honest I think you would have heard by now? He probably doesnt even know its happened. Yeah I know its bad, I had the same thing happened at a NW meet just after I first joined, I just let it go though as I knew it was an accident.
Hope u get sorted anyway.
I think the situation is that the finger of suspicion is pointing in one direction but there is no hard and fast evidence - hence no naming names and no accusations of "you f*cked my car up", merely a request for the person who did it (unintentionally Im sure but possibly not aware - though Id be amazed if not as it was a massive dent in Johns door) to stand up and say "Look, Im sorry - it was a genuine accident and I thought you might do your nut at me so I didnt want to confront you with it at a car show where everyones supposed to be having a good time. I cant pay for it all but I can make a contribution and you have my sincere apologies."
Or something like that.
All in all I think Johns being extremely calm about this, especially given how much hes lavished on his motor. Accidents do happen, its a fact of life, but surely its only good manners to admit to being responsible for one and do your best to rectify the situation.
?
All IMHO of course.
not meaning to be rude but this is just my opinion
at the end of the day this type of sh*t happens, when i got mine back from the bodyshop it was mint, and i mean mint
a few months on now and someone had managed to run a shopping trolley down the side of the door, right on the crease so it needs filling, the works...
my dad got a brand new golf rs32, 1 month of ownership and its already got parking dings on it,
parking dings and marks are just a way of life with driving, people will never love there car as much as you do. You simply have to try and grin and bare it (hard as ive got a £400 quote!)
agreed as you were on a stand it shouldnt really have happend, but take a look at some of the members cars. I know for a fact that not all of them are pampered and loved! these things happen, its a pain but thats life
ivegota16v, i somewhat think you are missing the point of why this post is here.
Sorry to read about this mate. Its not nice at all - I know from experience (as we all probably do).
Just to let you know, i was on the front row for about 30 mins (on the far side by the bogs so not me) at the start of the day, then went in the first track session and returned to the back of the pack.
If the person is unaware of the incident then how about suggesting the type of clio and/or colour of the car in this thread. It may jog a few memories....
There is no paint transfere so no can do, all there is a rather large dent on the line of the door smack bang in the middle.
Mk2 172 (Silver)
not good news.
i was in between CocoPops and fUbAr right behind the ClioSport banner (far left)....if that helps any kind of illimination process.
Does it definately look like a door edge hit?? There were plenty of people wandering around the stand looking at the cars (and wandering past to the loos!!), could it have been a heavy bag or something, in which case its unlikely the person will be on here?
Em
sorry John.
I was thinking about this the other day, there are a lot of people who come to the big meets who dont use the forum anymore. They might have just not been on here, so maybe just let it lie. My car got dinged at donny this year. :-(
I think everyone knows how you feel about it.
:-(
/y0z
Everyone is saying just let it lie, its only been on here a couple of days and we all know some people dont check the forum everyday.
It is def a door hit it by the way the dent is.
I was on your passenger side when we got there and im sure there was a williams on your drivers side !! i then went to the back after my 0-60
Unfortunately this was the only photo I got from up on the hill, not very clear when zoomed in either.

Hey, hope it wasnt me, I was on the front row for 15 minutes at the start and was running around like a head less chicken trying to make my track time, so no idea who I was parked next to, then spent the rest of the day hidden at the back, Blue Mk1 Phase3, PM me if you think it was me..
Massey6465 & saxo1.1
I had the Williams on the front row,AD172 on my drivers side and I thought rocko on my passenger side(thats wot I thought).Just bin out to check my passenger door(cus my car was left unlocked most of the day)and it appears to be fine with no sign of a knock.I say all this because it was suggested you were parked next to a willy and I think there was only 2 there.My car was off the patch twice during the day,then back in the same place again,then I left at about 2oclock or so cus of the long drive home.Im sure it wernt from my car m8.
