Going down the M4 today behind a taxi and his taxi light came off and hit my GTI, I well pissed off. I flashed him to pull over and he eventually did. First thing he said when he got out " did something come off my car then " I said your F**king taxi light did. Cracked my front splitter and done some nasty damage to my front bumper and chipped my bonnet. At first he said " a taxi light wouldn't do that damage ". I said it did this time. He still didn't own up to it, so I told im phoning the police now, so I did. After putting the phone down to them, he finally admitted the damage. Told him the police are on their way anyway, you can tell them the story. We exchanged insurance details, police done a few check on the computer. Im going to get a few quotes on monday morning now, I'll definatly be getting a quote from the stealers and this guy I know, he's really expensive but does a s**t hot job. Im not paying so im not bothered about the cost.
