Hmm that reminds me. Once when my car was towed away to a lot, it was given back with the hood roundel pried off! Grrr.
That happened to my jaguar emblem on my previous grocery getter. Very good way to make a bad day worse!!!

At least it wasn't when I got pulled over for a broken headlight that JUST happened the night before and you even showed the pig your Amazon receipt, then he comes across a ticket I've NEVER received (umm... I've never been pulled over in Northern California in my entire life) and says my license is suspended and decides to impound it. So, the tow operator comes RUNS the car up chirping the tires and making a nasty crunching sound as it scraped the bumper so hard it even dislodged the fog light of a car that has never been in an accident, then even crashing it against the back of the flatbed (and keep in mind I had the front plates removed so the paint flaked off)...

...On the bright side, I straightened the record out right away and had the mistaken ticket removed from my record, talked the manager into waiving the impound fee as payment for fucking up my car, used the crumpled and scratched bumper photos to dismiss my no front plate ticket since I said it got destroyed, got a new bumper and $500 in my pocket through insurance, but I still fucking hate cops and anybody associated with those greedy fuck-ups to this day for that shit. Sorry about the tone of this but every time I think of that incident it gets under my skin.

Decided to go mudding? Reminds me of when I first took delivery of my car and the 'snow tires' they mounted on my car weren't snow tires.

Since my E92 hasn't been towed yet (knock on wood), and the title doesn't specify that the picture must be of a E9x, here's my last car being towed:
