But that was both older cars with proper bumpers - the clue is in the name BUMBER - for bumping. These days you so much as touch it and it shatters into a 1000 peices and you are looking at a £600 PLUS labour replacement.
I prefer it when you see in other countries everyone has dents in their cars and when you clip someone a few swear words are exchanged but no one even stops.
While living in Spain we often used to watch people 'parallel park' by Whig I mean drive forward until you bumped the car in front, then reverse until you hit the car behind then repeat until you were satisfied you had parked ?
Shocked the hell out of us when we first moved there but after a while you got used to the fact that you car was just gonna be scratched and dented.....like everyone elses
