the worst day of my life
i had my nearly two month old 320d parked outside my house when a wild monkey jumped onto my car from a tree and has dented the roof of the car.
The damage has amounted to 6 big dents on the roof of the car and the earliest day available for me to take the car to the dealer is the 30 november, so ill be at least 1 month without using the car cos i wount be using the car with the roof the way it is, its not a nice sight to see the car in this state

Well, you know what they say, what monkey sees, monkey do. Maybe your car is so shiny that the monkey saw a reflection of itself and went nuts. Thanks for sharing and as some said, it made them laugh. Hope you get the car fix soon and find a resolution to stop it from happening again.

That monkey needs a good slapping around
Joking aside, I am sorry to hear, especially since the repar will cost a bit. BTW I had no idea there are wild monkeys going around in Gibraltar. Go figure. |

That's terrible!
There has been a cat looming in my garden the past 3 or 4 days...If I start seeing paw marks on my car I am going to FLIP! So...my girlfriend tells me cats don't like water - so next chance I get - i'm gonna soak it. If that doesn't work...well... lets not get there. |

I'm sorry, that sucks... is it really the worst day of your life though?
I'm surprised to be the first to ask this, but can you please post pics so we can all see what "monkey damage" looks like? |
