Title: Campervan........Keyed.....Why. Have you had similar.?
Post by: Denzle on 19, December, 2010, 09:34:35 PM
Earlier this year I had my self converted Mercedes Sprinter
long wheel base camper van fully re-sprayed in black,with no expense spared.   ;D    Cost me £2,400

I could do this myself but lack the workshop and equipment.

I then fitted chrome surrounds round the lights and on the door handles etc.

With the wheels painted black and the right type of trims
It looked great...... ;)........

Untill a couple of days ago when some jealous sick b*****d keyed it.   >:(   Thankfull though that it was on the rear quarter panel, and not the full length.

What fun does anyone get from this.  Has anyone else suffered this....or similar.

Yea. Remember in July I posted that I had my van scratched all along the side in circles.....the little bas**rds .....and you said at the time it would happen to you.......unfortunately you were right. :o

I'm sorry for you...hope you get it sorted soon.

Tough luck there :(.

I had a really nice showroom condition BMW 635i keyed, it does make you feel quite revengeful >:(

I just leave a photo of the wife in the windscreen, keeps everyone away, even I think twice before going near it.



Sorry. Its no joking matter. If it happened to me Id be none to happy, not thatit would show up much amongst all the other scraches on my camper

The problem is mate that they don't bring up their kids at all, they are too busy watching TV, supping cheap beer and waiting in the Lottery queue and just leave the kids to get on with it.
