Some B***?## damaged my D3
Whilst my car was parked on my drive last night some f***** tried to pull off one of my LF spolights off the roofrack. They pulled the wires out of the connectors on the back then have tried to break the mount off the rack. But the mount and screws holding it onto the rack proved to be too sturdy for them. However in trying too snap the mount they have repeatedly hit the roof of my car with the bottom of the mount and dented it and taken a bit of paint off .
Am now waiting for the old bill to make an appearance. Might have to set up an OP in the front garden to catch the scrotes and deal some justice out. POT NOODLE NAVIGATION CHALLENGE 2010 WINNER

That's not good mate
Hopefully you get it sorted soon and the idiots get some justice.
Did they climb on your bonnet, or up the back of the rack?

Well hopefully there will be some justice given out.
It looks like they have just stood at the side of the car and tried to take it that way so they have to be fairly tall, mind i haven't checked the roof out yet as it was dark when i noticed it tonight when i was coming home from work.POT NOODLE NAVIGATION CHALLENGE 2010 WINNER

The old bill have just been round and had a look at the damage asked me how much it will cost to repair They are coming back tomorrow night with the crime number and that and are going to get the community bobbies to knock some doors.
The job is going good thanks mick, getting out and about with no pressures apart from delivery times and the occasional little hitler at delivery points. POT NOODLE NAVIGATION CHALLENGE 2010 WINNER

Where the mounts attach to the rack it has proved its pretty well secure, will take phots to show how much ragging and twisting they tried to get it off. Need to manufacture a new mount as the one on the car is kaput.POT NOODLE NAVIGATION CHALLENGE 2010 WINNER
