The Cayenne is never vandalised - it came out of the factory looking that way

Or if they are bigger than me just ask them politely to stop

Or cry. That always helps. But i guess it make sense. BMW is causes hate already in some of the masses, and add to that a convertible and you got a winner.Woots wrote:Think i'd vandalise someones face if they did anything to mine...

This sort of thing count...
Have to say though that wasn't a Z4 attack - some nut job did around 40 cars that time!

Oh, nice!
Hope you managed to get it off ok.
My car is parked on the road for 6 weeks while I'm up near Newcastle - I'm bricking it

Re: Top 5 most vandalised cars in uk
That was outside my house. Shame they didn't do the calipers! Luckily it had been waxed a week or two before so the spray paint did take properly... about 45 minutes with AG Intensive Tar Remover got it off! I gave a bottle to the neighbours to sort their cars, they got bored, used adhesive remover and knackered their paintwork.Ben. wrote:Oh, nice!

To be fair, I've left my car in some undesirable areas and never had a problem!

Crossfire would look better when vandalised so maybe owners are doing that one

Re: Top 5 most vandalised cars in uk
I'm astounded that the Chrysler Crossfire is number 2 - they're not very popular at all and you don't see that many.
I guess those figures are as a percentage of total sales rather than a grand total?

Re: Top 5 most vandalised cars in uk
They deserved to be vandalised, though. They're horrendously ugly.
