... Well this is what awaited me when I returned to me car last night after it was parked up the main street. So...how much is this going to cost me then??? Do you reckon I could push it out myself? Just one bloody thing after another with Belano

it is repairable yes but pushing it out yourself will still look crap. I bet most bodyshops will want to put a new rear quarter on it that's where its going to be big money.

Thanks guys, I'm gutted. According to ePER, rear quarter panel is £300! Door is also slightly damaged, but can live with that (for now) Think I'll have a hunt for a second hand rear quarter, whatever colour! Is it worth taking this to an insurance claim? Knowing book prices on Coops they'll probably class this as a write-off I'm so pissed off right now

It was parked up in a little town crammed full of chavs and little old grannies. Don't know which team to blame!
Think I'm just going have to live with it, can't afford anything at the moment.
It hasn't quite hit me what's occured yet. Just angry, sure the tears will come later :-(

Don't worry matey we're all getting a bit unlucky lately. My manifold's blowing and turbo's going and she's hesitating slightly when coming on the throttle. Not feeling the love for the Sprinty atm!

Looks like a straight forward repair and far, far cheaper to repair than to replace that panel.
Get a quote from any decent bodyshop, porto isn't the hardest colour to blend either.
This is how it should have come out of Torino!

I like you guys - those are answers I was hoping for oh god Any chance of CCTV from the council? Hope this gets sorted out. Can't believe some people. We don't know what this CCTV thing is you speak of in this fair district, the council would ask the local witch if she could look back in time and seee if she saw anything.

looks as though someone pissed up has clipped you, definately worth reporting, the police might already know who it was.

I'll be back Alor Blue Seat Leon FR 180 atm

I suspect the pissed up theory is the correct one. We had a local country show that day, lots of people drinking all day long and town was busy as hell with everyone in the pubs. Thanks for your kind words people. I'm still just at a loss as to what to do I don't think an insurance claim would amount to anything as being a youngish driver my excess is £500, so barely worth it really.

Gutted for you, had a sick feeling looking at that (your car / wheels are very similar to mine).
They must have been wasted to make that sort of mess, and totally immoral not to leave their details (I'm guessing worried about being breathalysed - but surely they could have left them and then buggered off!?)
Hope you get it sorted ok on the insurance, make sure you choose the bodyshop, not them though!
