He scratched the bumper on mine and the insurance insisted on replacing the bumper so the claim went up and up

That's why insurance is so expensive - they seem to use little logic when it comes to repairs and will spen half a million quid looking for ways to save sixpence.

Exactly...

hmm there's a theam here , I have buffed out the black mark scuff and done the best to the small scratches, there was a white mark when I looked yesterday, thinking that the paint had chipped but alas it wasn't and it too polished out, no dent or crease so happy days again .....till the next time

I have not phoned the insurance but pictures taken before and after, just encase it bites me in the bum later down the line.

Me too wonder why we all have insurance for nice cars, pay a fortune in insurance (our choice mind and its all relative I know) but some little who cant be bothered too take care of what they own AND we still have to pay for it down the road sometime grrr just not right is it.

Thanks again for your advise and experience's guys, nice to see we all share a similar problem though. If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Congratulations on the polishing. Lucky!

Very very aggravating! Sounds like you got away lightly this time!

I drove round Waitrose car park yesterday twice and left as there was only 2 spaces and they weren't big enough, didn't want someone opening their door into me, ended up shopping in Lidl instead!  2011 4.4 TDV8 Autobiography

Yea got away very lighty this time

Funny how I never used to take 2 parking spaces in the 90 off roader, the 110 or Disco but now I'm more and more taking 2 spaces to park

I too have gone round and round the carparks in my old cruiser ......even parked the other end of carpark from the shop, even when slightly empty as well .......mind you, you still get some that parks next to you then !  If it dont work.......burn it!
