well im back. the bad news is i have had the car 3 days and in those 3 days i think the turbo is on its way out and this morning get to my car and someone has keyed all down one side. not a happy person today

Aaah man! I hate people with a passion, especially jealous people!

Don't worry I'm starting to get paranoid lots of things on my car are breaking but as the old saying goes if it ain't broke don't fix it lol!

Your having a laugh??? That's terrible mate.

Is it bad the damage?

Ross

yes the damage is shocking ive about had enough already and if the turbo has gone that will be the end of my coupe life. well i said that last time and the time before etc etc

has the key mark gone through the paint? (either to the base coat or the metal)

all; the way to the metal all down the side of the car and the bonnet

Arrrr........that really sucks!

But getting a re-cond standard turbo isn't too expensive these days, but the paint job will be painful!

Ouch - if it was just a surface scratch through the clearcoat, I was going to offer to try to rectify it (I have a DA polisher with all the pads and polishes)

However, if it's gone through the colour coat, the only way to repair it is with paint

to quote pulp fiction...its almost worth them doing it so you can catch them.....

Seriously unlucky. What (insert expletive here) are they? Why cause damage just for the sake of it?

i no the feeling.
it makes you sick, livid, angry, Pi$$ed off ect.

Just DONT punch the door like i did...

Lucky i had Nigels door to replace them with, but its just a sick thing to do to a man's car.

as i always said, if they do it, it will be worth it as long as i catch them.
then i can call the police and let the deal with the issue and not do any thing out of line.


get some pics up mate, see how bad this really is...

Shame on them!

i cant tell from the avatar isi t metallic?
non metallic can be penned in and rectified without a complete blow over.

thnaks for all the posts and sorry i havent got back to you guys but i was in a car crash last night so feeling a bit stiff at the momment, not in the coupe though

At bad times like this not much can be said to make it better just know you'll get through it and the coupe love will return

I hate hearing about things like this, the turbo, that's just a bit of bad luck but to have the car keyed... B******S!

Where abouts in Sheffield are you mate? I know a few good painters who will do a good job at sensible money if it helps.

You were in a crash? Blimey, you having bad luck! Hope you ok and nothing too serious.

OMG! Were you driving or just a passenger of fate?
