I've had the damn thing three weeks and an old lady backed into it today when I left it outside for half an hour before heading to work today.

So...ugh. I'm angry but not as upset as I should be :cry:. I don't think it's sunk in yet.

Dam thats a real shame and sorry to hear this....

How anyone could not see your Mini behind them is beyond me..

For that much damage I would think she was not reversing at a very slow speed :(..

And what the hell was Grandma driving?
Obviously wasn't a Camry like everyone else on the road over 60.

Sorry to see that, hope you can get it fixed quick.

Man, that is bad luck. Nice mini though.

I hope the insurance company does not try to write it off.

Will you be saying that when your 65?

I know plenty of people who should not drive at all.

You were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

It will sort itself out, everything happens for a reason. Don't ask me why.
