I did consider that but then it occurred to me that the most likely culprit is going to be a non-driver, especially a child, throwing their passenger door open. At least the driver of a car is reasonably likely to own the vehicle they're driving and have a bit more respect and care.

Ok, we all know that's not completely true, but it made sense at the time

Nottm_S2 If you need Keith Baines number (for the dent removal, not a firearm) then have a search on the site. If it can't be found then I can dig it out for you tonight.

P.S. if you shot a door dinger and it went to a jury trial, I would find you not guilty, job done!
is he a door ding remover of repute? I'll dig around tah...



i think a gentleman's agreement on the jury idea would be good.. all in favour say 'I'

Urgh - that place is the sin.

When you drive in, past the petrol on your right, you come to a roundabout and you do a sharp left. The amount of times I've nearly had some chav bowl into me at that point.

I usually park round the back near the goods enterance, and get a 5K walk into the experience to boot !

I'm still ding free in the S - the beater has been beaten mind you.
The problem with the goods entrance is all the internet delivery vans! Which have all sorts of colour paint on them!!

Thust me the way ahead is the parents and children places after 11pm!

Last time I went late night to Tesco, there were some losers doing donuts in an old 3 series... He did seem quite talented but it forced me to park behind some big trees

I was actually sat in my car in a garage forecourt parking space in France when someone opened his car door to get in and hit mine. There was a very slight ding as a result and the chap involved obviuosly couldn't understand my ranting and just drove off! I don't want to offend anyone by saying b****y foregners, because I'm not that way inclined but he was German...

Yes he's used by quite a few dealerships.
He sorted out a tiny ding on mine perfectly, he sorted a ding out on a collleagues Jazz flawlessly and I believe Hazdjc has used him.

The last number I have is 07973 400093.

HTH
tah.. i'll try it tomorrow
