You're alright?? What is damaged on the car?Ahh, it's not that bad. The noise was sooooo loud, I imagined the worse. I finally got the courage to look at it on Saturday..More damage was done sat arvo.Left rear passenger door. Somone in an AU Wagon obviously bumped their door into our car, there are also deep scuff marks between the left rear quarter window and the rear windscreen. Cut and polish may not be enough. I know I didn't do it as I take care after every wipe when washing. I'm obsessed, call me nuts but I check the sponge and chamios before and after every wipe. I know I didn't do it!I looked at it when cleaning it in the arvo and had a bit of a 'spew'.Back to the 'roof': I'm soooo amazed that there is no dint. Similiar thing happened in our AU III VCT and there was a 5 mm sharp indentation as a result, it must have hit the roof and bounced at the right angle who knows. Just a few scratches and discolouration, you really have to look for it, polished the spot and it's reasonably OK now. (even though I shouldn't: "Ming").

Car will have to go under the knife. Was worried driving down the coast on the weekend, it's getting worse. Hopefully it can be sorted out before the cruise otherwise I may have to miss it....Noooooooo.

This will be the decider. If it is a major problem and I'm stuck driving a Focus or Laser then I'll have to miss out on the cruise : ( If worse does come to worse. Do you guys want to use the sign I made last time? Who is near the Wynnum/Hemmant area? I'll post again saying 'Yes, I'm coming' or 'No'.
