Hit-n-run - Today In Bushey

[derekyau]

Yep.

As the title topic suggests, my car got hit, and the driver drove off without stopping like.

Luckily there was a witness, who kindly left me a note on my windscreen, with the number plate of the person's car that hit mine.

Today at about 12:30pm, went for a (late) breakfast with my Cuz on Bushey high st. Parked up. Went in for a (lovely) full English.

Came out, got into car and noticed a note left under my wiper...

Read it, then realised that someone had scraped all down the rear off side of my car!!! :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk:

Scraped a total of 3 panels, AND even managed to scrape my alloy!!!

Full album of pics here.

Sample pics:

Could have been a lot worse damage, but its the hit-n-run principle that :tsktsk: me off.

Have reported to police. Waiting for the admin-y type stuff to go through to see if the cuplrit owns up.

Looked up the number plate, and its a Blue 2004 Nisans Primera S 1.8l registered to someone in Harrow...

And yes, there is a spot of that car's paint on mine as well.

Anyway, rant over.

bad luck mate that sucks.hope they make them pay big time

Did the person who left the note leave a contact number because without them i dont think you will have a claim.

I would pay the culprit a visit. If you dont get them to cough up then at least you know where they live.

Yeah, he did. Spoke to him, and was more than happy to be a witness if required.

Quote his note "I hate people like that" wrt hit-n-runs.

Dont know the cuplrits exact address... i'm sure Scarface will though

Sorry to hear about the damage to your car.

Had the same sort of thing happen to me last week when i parked up and went in a local shop.

I saw a peugeot 106 parked next to my car when i came out from the shop,i always look around my car before before i get init :winky: and noticed the back corner of the bumper on my car had been scuffed.Took a look at the peugeot to find about 1 metre of damage down the side.I goes in to every shop and asks who owns a 106 peugeot,young girl owns up and i says well you better come out and have a look at the damage youve done to my car...she says she never even felt her car touch mine

Alway got her details and spoke to her father on the phone that night...car was in a body shop and repaired and back to me by the end of the week... :)

I did speak to the police about it and they said if things dont get sorted out then i could report her for leaving the scene of a accident.Lucky for me it didnt come to that...

Hope you get it all sorted out very soon..

Cheers chips.

Its not often chips that you manage to catch the culprit but glad you did. I would find it hard not to pummel their face in.
