These things makes you wonder why there are such people in this world.

The 8 made me spend more money as i eat and park at more upmarket places where there are less of these hooligans.

I tend to avoid lower end places to minmise the probability of such tragedies happening.

ouch...should cost less than $200 to respray.
the other contacts you should keep handy is Lye Design and PDR.

many ppl are envious of this car, just have to park in prominent places lor.

Emperor 12-05-2005 08:15 AM

Maybe you want to try a scratch remover first before respray.

Changi village? Daytime cannot Ah-gua scratch. :>

I went there twice to eat the Turkish food but i am usually back within 30 mins. (Owning the 8 also give me indigestion as i always eat fast if my car is not in sight). Lucky no problem.

So the moral is, go upmarket places or park within sight.

sound like me !!!
everytime i park public car park ..i tend to do everything fast fast !!!!
its a heart pounding situation everytime!!!

n i think better park higher in multi-storey carpark... to avoid pp who open doors without caring a heck whats besides their car...

coupe07 12-05-2005 10:26 AM

find a corner parking lot, park nearest to the wall... avoid SUVs, mercedes, volvos, and all the big cars...... ultimate avoidance shld be vans and lorries....

Emperor 12-05-2005 10:58 AM

It interesting whenever i park within sight.

I always see people take long looks at our car, thankfully haven't caught anyone touching my car (though i ever found a oily face mark on the passenger window once).

What i really need is a sniper BB gun when i am around my car.

And when i open all four doors, i always get "wows".

Another one to add to the ultimate avoidance list- MPVs!! Sometimes the parents know how to open their doors carefully, but the kids and old folks always just swing their doors open big big. :cussing:

And I agree totally with the corner parking lot. I always park my car at corner lots and park super close to the wall/pillar.

BUt parking in Singapore is like that ...no choice.
If u heading to orchard, sometime is good to valet park your car (eg Hyatt)
but again ...try to avoid parking certain public carpark with very narrow lots ...and avoid parking beside those cars that was mentioned earlier by our bro

I will never let a stranger touch my car. Valets can be a pain sometimes; rev your car, test our ABS, adjust our seat.

Paragon is a good place to park; got more expansive cars there and loads of lots. And not many people park because its expensive.
