Bad luck on the dent.

Thanks

Nice pick up Ben! Congrats!
You shoulda left the door open that day you parked...

Good idea

Just thought I'd post that I'm averaging 10.6L-10.8L.

I fill up with Premium Unleaded at work and travel 32km between home and work.

Pictures from the accident with the work runabout yesterday.









I removed the rash make with elbow grease and metho, slight scratches are evident and dents & of course broken RHS headlight protector.

The 'Little Car' a AE82 Corolla has a dented passenger door.
Accident was human error on both parties

3rd incident happened, am ashamed to say was my fault reversed into fence even with the sensors beeping last weekend, no major dents just light scratches.

I think the car is cursed or is it the driver ????
