Damage to car on Sat 9 May in Fellbrigg Road

[edanna]

Someone drove into my car today while it was parked outside no 2 Fellbrigg Rd, that's the Northcross Rd end of the road, near Willow. It's dented and scratched - probably about ?200-worth of damage. I would just put this down to (bitter) experience, but just a couple of months ago I paid ?200 for the repairs after the same thing happened when it was parked on Northcross Rd. I'm really upset that I have to keep shelling out hundreds of pounds because other people won't own up to their bad driving. Did anyone see what happened?

I saw somebody reversing out of Fellbrigg Road into Northcross Road about 10am this morning and making a real pig's ear of it, but I didn't see them hit anything and afraid I couldn't give a description of either the driver or the car because as usual I was in a world of my own :-$

The only reason I noticed was because I thought it was a dangerous thing to do.

Useful that.

I saw someone driving a car up Lordship Lane this afternoon. He/she may or may not have driven along Fellbrigg Road. I'm afraid I couldn't give a description of either the driver or the car because as usual I was in a world of my own.

A classic post.

Sorry for posting :-$

No need to apologise, Sue. Your info could be useful, jog someone's memory or form part of a bigger picture. I know you were just trying to help out.

I agree, with Brum...you've narrowed the timeframe down to 10ish so that may be helpful to others...

yeah, some drunk in a white peugeout106 on crystal palace road backed into (and damaged) my car last week.

i just think people in london dont care. im simply waiting till i see the person in the car again to get them to cough-up!!!

so looking at this example im minded to think theres some drink-driving going on at the weekedn locally. (the car in question was parked 1m onto the curb!!)

did u have white paint or black/gre6y bumper stripes left behind??

Bummer if yours gets damaged, but the "London Kiss" to test if you are close enough in the space to the car in front/behind is all part of driving, no?

(It wasn't me btw)

[edanna]

Thanks all. Sue - thanks to you, I know you were trying to help. Mellors, know what you mean about the "London Kiss", but the damage to my car is more like a good kicking.

description of either the driver or the car

Oh no, not the description quandary.

sue & mellors - agree re london kiss, this was more like a ram-raid...
