Hit and Run

briwy · Jul 19, 2015

Cali parked up in the private car park outside our house in the Pyrenees this morning and some kind soul has driven into the the rear drivers side bumper.and legged it. Massive dent and rip in the bumper and it was hanging off down to the ground.
Rear foglights smashed and the trim under the rear lights. Ripple in the heat shield underneath but cant see any damage to the shell. Absolute b******s. Got a good idea it was the dopey oaf who gives the old lady next door a lift to church as the time ties in.
Just wish the dashcam had been in the rear rather than the windscreen. Guess it will be at least a grand assuming there is no damage to the shell.
Thumped and kicked most of it back in position and fastened it all up with self tappers so at least we can carry on following the Tour which came up here to Cauterets last Wednesday in 35 degree heat.

What a downer

. Glad there's no damage to the steelwork, but it will still be expensive. Sickening.

This is why I now have a camera looking over my driveway

Sorry to hear, hope you find them.

Maybe ask the old lady if she knows anything and gauge her reaction, wouldn't be very moral to deny it for a churchgoer would it?
