The X has to visit the body shop !

Even with PDC my wife still managed to back into a wall last week. I ask her how that was possible, she said the radio was to loud .

I have not had a car at the body shop for about 15 years so I guess I am lucky I only need a bumper cover repaint and the bumper re-enforcement straitened.

Sorry to hear that!! My cousin managed to do the same a few months ago! He reversed into a skip damaging his tail gate! He also said the same, didnt hear the PDC bleeping as the radio was louder.

Well I know there is a speed limit setting... maybe see if you can come up with a volume level... or perhaps a little man with a squirt gun can pop up to get her attention lol jk

I feel your pain. I now have a little curb rash on one of my new 20's after letting the woman drive mine over to the store. Was a good night for me but man not sure if it was worth it.

Ok for all you morbid viewers here you go, this is a wall meeting an X5. Yes it’s dirty, but it’s been raining a lot and I am going to the body shop tomorrow.
