Kids looking around my car, should i be worried?


Recommended Posts

So i parked up outside a post office to dispatch my orders today.

 

Came back outside to find around 5 kids, id say aged range from 13-15 all gathered around the car, looking inside it, looking at the brakes, and one taking a picture.

 

I may just be getting paranoid, and they may just be admiring it, but im now feeling umcomfortable as i live close to this post office and dont want to come out one day to find it vandalised.

When I had my 50 i went to pick my son up from school to take him somewhere.

Had the whole 'Media' class plus teacher around it when I got back to it.

I just opened all the doors and let them oggle and take pics. (only one had the bottle to ask to sit in it)

If all the local kids are known for Joy Riding, then I would be worried :lol:

 

But I think they were just having a nose and admiring you Zed . . . . it will happen a lot more. . . so get used to it B)

Yeh i think im getting paranoid they seemed pretty harmless, they didnt look rough or anything lol.

 

I live in Weymouth, which is quite a sought after place to live so not known for its crime.

Same thing happened to me last week when i went to the post office. You have just got to think back to when you were that age :D

 

The kids loved the 'dish' on my rear wheels haha

Another thought is, be pleasant to them, and they could be the ones making sure nothing happens to your car.

 

yes goes without saying, id never get angry with someone for looking or taking pics of it, only if they started touching or damaging things.

 

Does not help that the post office is by a school and a college, and i dispatch my orders around 4pm lol

I had a load of 50+ year olds looking round my car at the train station earlier in the week and some other guys taking pictures when I took my mum shopping in Lincoln. I think the bright orange makes it stick out.

I parked outside a bar in town last night to watch the footy, which is right on the main street. We ended up sitting in the window by where i parked, and it had people looking in, walking round it, stopping their cars and even reversing back to have a better look - and my car is aesthetically pretty much standard. So dont be afraid OP :console:

The Z really does seem like a car that gets a lot of attention by passers by, I've had two people on separate counts when filling up with petrol come and look at it and ask me about it.

 

Lovely looking thing imo, tis why I bought one

its the poster boy of the granturismo generation. take it as a complememt, kids will admire and generally not touch, especially if your nice to them. if they're carrying tools then i'd worry.

Spoilers and kits usually attract a 'different' type of admirer, so yeah be nice to them just incase. Are they wearing baseball caps? lol :lol:
