I got Keyed!!! Mother-F$^$%^#%%^#%&^##%&#%…… fwwww Ok it will all be OK, Waaaaaaaaaaa sniff sniff
So I had the opportunity to take a couple of friends out this week for a last hoora before I jet off to the US.
My house mate and I decided that it would be nice to head down to McLaren Vale for some wining and dinning in one of the worlds most beautiful wine regions.
I thought that it would be nice to take one of the couple in my car and the other 4 could travel in there car which was perfect.
One of my friends is a bit of a hobby photographer and snapped a whole heap of photos throughout the day which I will get around to uploading here eventually, but he also loved my car and took a few gorgeous photos one of which is below. Unfortunately for me I am completely in love with my car for a number of reasons, Number 1 it is just the most beautiful car in the world to drive, Number 2 its the first car that I have had that I got brand new, and Number 3 which is probably the most important reason I was given it as a present from my grandpa when he passed away.
Anywho my 2008 Audi is very very dear to me and because of the big move I have decided to sell her. As of tomorrow I should have been taking her into the local dealership here in Adelaide. That was until today!
Whilst we were having our lunch today in the fantastic Primo Estate (if you are in South Australia this is a winery not to be missed) and our cars were parked outside in the car park some smart ass decided that it would be nice to Key both of our cars, writing “FAG” into the front of my friends car and for me a annoying large scratch right across the front of the car. hummmfff…
I know in the last few post I have been talking a little about my emotions and feelings being amplified and out of control well this was a great example, as soon as I had, had a little time to process exactly what someone had done to my car I burst into tears, I am not really sure what made me completely lose it like I did, maybe the stress of everything lately maybe the lack of sleep I don’t know but I was balling.
Once consolled by my friends I mangeaged to pull myself together and enjoy the rest of the day but when I got home and really assesed the damage I was right back into tears again, even writing this now about 9 hours after I got home I am still angry, annoyed and saddened that my car has been defiled.
I know that its going to be expensive to fix and I am not sure that insurance will cover it but fingers crossed. the most painful thing is that I now have to leave the car in my mums hand to sell it after its been fixed.
Well this has been Viola’s Gripe of the day… Hope you enjoyed it. Sorry I blurred the number plates guys and girls cant have you stalking my mum. LOL jk

Boo. *HUGS*
My stereo & gps were stolen out of my car while it was parked in the locked parking garage of my apartment building last year. (They torched the lock on the door of the garage.)
And I don’t know what kind of insurance y’all have down there, but I’m pretty sure that my insurance here in the states would cover something like that.
And why are you selling such a beautiful looking car??!!

@Addison, Hey Addison,
Wow that was a quick comment probably the quickest I have ever had after posting.
I have my fingers crossed that they will cover it under my insurance, but we will have to see.
Sucks to hear about your stereo and GPS I have that happen to not from this car but my previous one.
And my reason for selling, I will be gone for a minimum of 3 years and I couldn’t bear to leave such a beautiful machine sitting in my mums garage for all that time.
Plus this way I can buy the new 2010 model in the US. I am hoping because of the lower price of these cars there that it will give me a bit of cash towards my breast implants too.

@Viola Adams Oooh! I didn’t know you were moving over here!
It depends on what car you’re looking at over here as to how much you’re gonna spend. How long are you planning on being over here? If it’s not long a gently used car might not be a bad idea too. There should be some 2008s and 2009s that are coming off lease here soon that shouldn’t have too much wear on them.

Hey girl
I hope you can get your car fixed and that it doesn’t cost too much. =( Gosh I can so relate to bursting into tears like that. I had a similar feeling when I got towed in Seattle a month or two ago.

@Jerica, thanks. Just spoke to mum or should I say mom now I’m in New York. And she said insurance will pay so it will just be the excess of $150 or so, she said the Audi guy said it would cost about $7500 to be resprayed. Seems like a lot to me but that’s what I get for buying an Audi.
