So I had a ding in my car..

Post by c8rs6 » Sun Jul 05, 2020 5:40 pm

Had my car for 2 weeks, driving down a one way street and a DPD driver didn’t look in his mirrors when opening his door.

I didn’t have enough time to stop and hit his door..

Been in for repair for 4 weeks and should have it back next week!

From the repair cost breakdown, don’t ever damage the front bumper or the headlamp 😂

£3000 + VAT for the headlamp, £1300 + VAT for the bumper, £1200 + for the bumper cover and the list for the Carbon bits carries on..

Lucky the DPD driver admitted liability.

It’s been in for repair longer than I had it 🤦🏽‍♂️ But luckily I got a Carrera 4s as a replacement and a BMW M4 when I got bored of the Porsche
