well i took it to the body shop I know of because of that "rust thing" on the other x-type i had and he said almost 3 grand to fix. I then took it to the insurance company and they said it looks like 1600 in damage... This should be fun.

I cringe when I hear stories like this. Better glass than paint like Jvegas. Vegas, if you didn't have bad luck, you wouldn't have any luck at all. sorry bud.

ORIGINAL: bojangles

when i am jealous of something,,, i admire it and tell the owner that I like it.

how on earth does jealousy = scratching?

try to think why you made the person mad/angry... not jealous!. did you do a bad parking job?
Since I was the one who used Jealous, this must of been for my sake..

I don't know Bo to be honest..people are funny animals..I've seen it time and time again on different levels..If person A wanted a nice thing and Person B has it, but Person A could not see how they could afford or have a nice thing like person B..Person A usually tries to destroy or ruin Person's B thing..so that way neither Person A or person B will have the nice thing, that would be Jealousy or Envy, whichever you prefer to call it, means the same..Now reasonable and sane people do just exactly what you suggest..they would step back and admire Person's B nice thing and hope to someday to have one like that themselves..That would be person C by the way...But as you know, this is not a sane and reasonable world.

And if it was a mad or angry person..and that is also possible..a lot of women are vindictive like that, but the damage is usually more sever than a keying..Just facts, not my personal opinion.

i got my car back from the shop! it looks better then it ever has! i must say i was shocked on how nice the fresh paint and body work looks. the shop i took it to went above and beyond what i expected. If any one needs a shop that just works on Jaguars and lives in or near Ohio, let me know and i will PM you the information for the shop I took my car to. I guess in the end the fact my car got keyed and dented worked out for the best.... i just hope it never happens again.
