Well I come home from school and I park in front of my house like I usually do. About an hour later there's a knock at the door, and it's my neighbors son. I open the door and he proceeds to tell me that my car has been hit. I nearly fainted cause I worked so hard to be able to afford this car. I went outside and saw that the left side of my bumper and my back quarter panel were dented pretty bad.
Also my tired had been scraped as well as my rim a bit. Luckily I still have stock rims cause I woulda been pissed if I had bought new ones. It turns out the old man (70 years old) was moving his motor home and he managed to hit my Z and my neighbors daughters brand new week old car (she lives two doors down). I still can't understand how he managed to do it, but it really sucks. I was planning on taking my car to the dealership to have a lot of stuff fixed finally. I have been having some problems and I just haven't had time to take it in.

Atleast they were honest about it, but that does suck. I was recently rear ended by someone with no insurance or drivers liscence. Hopefuly insurance can take care of it quickly

Well he told me to get some quotes and he would take car of getting the car fixed. It's not that he was trying to hide it, he's just really old and shouldn't have been driving.
How bad is the damage? Let's just say, you know how the back side panel bulges out, it's not bulged anymore. I will post pics tomorrow. It's already night and I want to take them in the daytime. I should've taken pics when it first happened but I had a bad day and I just came in the house and watched tv. It was just the icing on my day.

at least yours got hit by honest people. When I had a G35 and parked right outside my house, and came out the next morning with the driver side door skin and driver side panel with a scrach 2 inch long right across. I know one of my neighbors did it, and most likely his 16 year old son. I asked the father of the family if he had seen anything, he said no, and I asked where is your son, how come his car is not there like it usually is. He told me that his son's car is in the shop. I know the father wouldn't lie to me, but his son most likely did it and didn't tell his father to not to get in trouble. Now every time I see him, I really want to go and f up his piece of s*&@ car for revenge.
Oh well, the G35 is long gone and I have a Z now and no way I'm leaving my car right in front of the house again.

That sucks, but I have a feeling the old man will not pay 100% of your repairs. Did you get his insurance information. Shouldn't you be taking your care to a auto repair shop? Your daughter must be feeling really bummed.

I don't mean to change the thread topic, but the picture isn't supossed to be an insult to DavidV. I agree with his post on threads needing pics sometimes, so I made this inspirational poster to use on threads that needed pics.
Boy, are you getting picked on lately!

I'd go for reporting it to your insurance also. Your car was parked so you weren't involved. I'd worry about the guy having a change of heart or losing it when he sees how much things cost now. Rim repair can be expensive in itself. Get his money for repairs before he gets the bid of the damaged new car of the neighbor. If there is only one worm, the early bird gets it.
This isn't about incontinence but incompetence. I don't care how old anybody is that can hit two cars with a motor home.
