It was until the last line just above the pic, to me that sounds as if he is expecting it to be some members off here.
And this is coming from someone who has never owned a corsa and couldnt give a shite what reputation surrounds Corsa owners.
It could be taken 1 of 2 ways
Negative or Informative
Is he threatening corsa owners?
Or Informing us as there is some rogue's doing the rounds?
I'm going for the latter.

Anyway, Im not sure why he has got the huff with whats been said, nothing has been that bad tbh, and certainly no more than you'd get on every other forum on the new (just not as funny on those tbh).

Because I can't think of anyone that uses this site that would go out and damage a random car.

Don't see the problem asking on here to find these people. Descriptions of the cars will help. I personally would have no problem helping to catch a gang of vandals.

I can't really see anyone endorsing it.
Perhaps the car isn't to everyone's taste but that is just opinion.

PS, i know there are a lot of good people on here, More than idiots. But its the same with every site, there just seems to be a bit less control on this site maybe?
Yes i was trying to inform people. I wasnt looking for exact reg's of cars etc, The guy who owns the MK2 is a bit pissed off he has to go buy some more leather and re-fit it, not an easy job tbh. Just thought it may make people more aware these people are doing the roands at shows etc. A full set of BBS centre caps went missing at edition off a car parked on the show field. Gonna be a task to get another set, nevermond the cost.

No CCTV? TBH you're going to struggle to find out who did it because it's not something that stands out, from a distance it could look like a piece of felt or a welcome matt, nobody is going to have stand out memories of seeing a few chaps carrying some material.
Put it down as a bad day/experience and tell your mate to put it behind him.

Is it possible that the hippys in the campervan were that smashed that they actually ripped it off themselves to line the campervan table with & made up the story about 4 corsa's, did the guy even check the campervan

Guys in corsas vandalising a fellow modders car.
Regardless of make or taste, at the end of the day we all put effort into our cars and wouldn;t like it happening to any of us. would we?
I don;t think it was unreasonable to ask on a corsa forum, seen as it was corsas spotted committing the crime.
think some people need to chill out a bit.
Fair point

whats to say it wernt even the corsas. Just basically a generalisation that the camper van saw them pull up nearby the car and "stereotypically" presumed it would be them as they drive corsas.
And im suprised it didnt happen at ed38.. judging from the threads ive seen about vandalism galore there; people putting cars on roof, theiving etc. but then you go on those threads and some are blaming it on the non VW owners turning up at the show as its popular now... corsa/saxo owners and so on- typical.
