Car vandalised
- Thread starter backforCity

Absolute twats, I live in Ashton and four years ago I bought a 15 years old Porsche, it cost less than the price of a used family car. In the four years I owned it the car was “keyed” three times and twice had damage to the bodywork whilst parked up, deliberate or not, no idea. I did a total of around 5k miles in the time I owned it and in the end with regret I sold the car in September. I now drive a nondescript Honda and in the four months I’ve owned it I’ve had no vandalism issues, however, I get no joy out of driving the car unlike the pleasure I had of owning the Porsche, it’s sad but the twats beat me into shit car ownership submission.I car share/rotate who drives with my brother-in-law and his Dad, we were also unfortunately targeted on Upper Helena Street last night (2018 Audi). We feared it'd be the case as we passed the BMW X1/X3/X5 with both windows smashed and several other 'more expensive' cars along the road, despite ourselves and a few others we spoke to saying none of us had anything of value on display.
It seemed like mindless vandalism/jealousy and less like 'lets target City fans' as (and no offence by this) we saw several less expensive vehicles with MCFC accessories that hadn't been vandalised, for instance, a small Toyota Yaris in front of us had a miniature MCFC scarf and stickers in the windows yet had not been targeted.
It's a shame, really - we've parked there for over two years now with little issues aside from the occasionally busy garage on the corner taking up the majority of the street with cars due for repair.
As others have said, maybe it's time to find a new parking spot - the cynic in me wonders if the local car parks have paid someone - I wish I had more faith in my fellow Mancunians.

I wondered that too.
On a related note, I see the club have announced a new official car park (off
Ashton New Road), presumably this Saturday is the first time open.
Not to bad getting out now everybody zip merges...other than getting out of there after the game?

I have always walked to the stadium but in this instance I will be attending the FA cup match in a car driven by my son in law, how early should he get there to park? Is it pay on the day?
My uncle used to have a Robin Reliant when I was a nipper which we used to go to the match in but the rules may have changed since then :)
