Having Really Bad Luck With Cars Lately In Our Family!

[smoftah]

These last few weeks my family and I have had really bad luck with our cars!

1) My dad reversed my mum's car into an astra two weeks ago - total repair cost outside of insurance was £1500 for the Astra

2) My brother got a brand new Golf about a month ago and he managed to reverse out of a car park space and scrape from the front bumper all down the side and all the way back to rear bumper on a short pole! (dont ask me how he done it ) - Repair cost quoted at £2,800.

3) My pride and joy was hit when I was parked at Bluewater shopping centre. The :censor: did not leave a note and damaged the corner of my rear bumper and rear 3/4 panel. Repair quoted at £300!

4) About 30 minutes ago my brother reversed out the drive and did not see if our cul-de-sac road was clear and hit our neighbour's Mercedes as they were driving down the road. Dented the other side of the Golf rear door and rear quarter panel!!!

All in all it seems that is not luck but rather my family are not looking where they are going! Plus the :censor: who hit my car and ran off!

Rant over now...resume your places people

p.s. If anyone see a blue Golf or Blue Avensis in the Longfield area with its reverse lights on make a mad dash out of the way

I ll get pics up of the damaged cars later, when they return...if they return!

This is why I always reverse in and drive out....

Seriously though I feel for ya. It's not nice when bad luck comes like this.

I hope your cars are fixed quickly and cheaply :)

I am worried about parking my car on my drive now

Thanks for the well wishing

Looks like the Golf will be an insurance jobby plus the repair for the Merc

Not a bad thought, I have mentioned it to my dad for my brother to go on a few advanced lessons.

You know it makes sense
