My Ride: 2006 BMW 520d SE - Jet Black - Advanced Air Con - Sports Suspension - Sports Steering Wheel - Extended Light Pack
Well had my e60 since 20th May 2006 and already some total w****r has bumped into it and left a 6" long scrape on the back bumper between the PDC sensors
The really annoying thing is that I know for sure this happened in the company car park at work and there are only 5 spaces there including mine and no-one has admitted it (so far).
I've tried to polish it out and it looks better but I think I'm going to have to get some professionals to see to it. :'(
Sorry to burden you all with this but had not vent my frustration!

Well the plot thickens - had a chat with the fleet manager, apparently a hire car was dropped off yesterday so he is looking into it.
I really hope this wasn't someone I work with

Would be really stupid if they wouldn't admit, because you can always see stains of paint on both cars normally...

Can i see the pic? sorry about that.
Do not feel that bad. When I bought my first bmw, a 323i back in 2000, I got hit by some one on the right
fender- passenger side after only 90miles on it. The fender had to be replaced.
I got it my car Friday night, and i got hit the next morning . my car was parked when it got hit.
