Re: Irresponsible Behavior
+1. That's the only way. Don't bother looking for CCTV footage (vandals are not stupid) and don't pin any hopes on the police... I speak from experience. My E46 cabrio and Vespa both kena before and it will happen again. Just last month someone left a bun wrapper in my 1M front grill like it was funny.
Fix the mofo yourself - yes round up a few friends and make it count! - and start parking in a safer spot.
By the way, BMWs are probably too common in Singapore to induce jealousy - is someone seeking payback?
I'm not making light of your situation, just wondering why an opportunistic vandal would bother to key every panel on your car. They're usually hit-and-run cowards.

You can also say that the person might come back for more because they bother ......

Re: Irresponsible Behavior
sigh... if singapore can become like this, something is very wrong with the people. A night in an African jail should wake these culprits up for the rest of their lives. Brings a whole new meaning to the word tough.
Anyhow, I heard from my colleague that he read somewhere that someone in singapore is targeting Audi cars. Meaning if you drive an audi vs other badges, your chances of getting scratched is higher... I forgot about the comment on color ; which color attract more mischiefs..... sian.

Re: Irresponsible Behavior
sad to say; I practise the following:
1) Park further but not out of sight. too secluded is dangerous too.
2) if there's a choice of HDB or public vs mall carpark ( choose mall, even when its 5 bucks per hour)
3) if there's a choice of valet park ( no need to give key and not too expensive), do it.
4) if there's a choice between a center lot or corner lot ( right corner even better, means your passenger side opens to the wall), choose corner because you can park nearer to wall and escape dings.
5) if there's a choice between parking next to pickup or a taxi ( .....choose some place else or wait for others to leave)
6) if there's a super prime lot that's right in front of mall entrance ( lift or something) try not to, everyone who carries big bags, boxes and also jewelry will brush your car when going past it. 1 person per minute.... you do the math.
=) if something still happens? take it in your stride and curse then move on. Like buying a stupid stock counter and burning 3k. move on and try better next time. =)
Good luck!

Re: Irresponsible Behavior
There was time I thought the bungalow lot just beside the handicap lot at HDB estates was the best liao...until I observed that knn all the delivery trucks and vans like to stop there to unload stuff...and I saw one time the worker opened the lorry side panel and kenna a car's side mirror. Whole mirror dropped on the floor but he boh chap/dunno and just drove away after delivering the cooking gas

Re: Irresponsible Behavior
Worker offloaded some goods then hit a motorcycle which then fell sideways into the car parked near there. Handle bar dented the sender the size of a coconut and took out his mirror leaving a scratch 3cm thick across his door plus one broken driver side window broken.
Worker then left. Then the motorcyclist came picked up his Kawasaki Ninja and left.
Car driver came back ..... No idea how his car can damage until like that.
