Just come across this thread,GUTTED!
What a state to see a Scorpio in,especially someones pride and joy!.
Reading through, likely culprit=council dusty bin wagon. Looking at those rear load wagons they do have a long overhang at the rear that swings out quite threateningly and by the looks of it at the right height too.
Get your tape measure out waders and see if the marks correspond to the height of the dangly bits at the back of a dustcart.!!

Really sorry to read of your problems Waders.
Let's hope that your refuse contractors wheelie have a conscience.
But just in case they don't, I would suggest that you write a short note to the Local Authoity addressed to the Contracts Manager simply explaining that you are putting him on notice that you have a claim against the contractors. Give only very brief details (Their bin wagon hit my car and caused £1,000 damage.)
If he is doing his job properly, he should then contact the contractors. In my experience, this form of 'scissor' attack does tend to focus the attention of people being claimed against.
If the contractors don't settle, you can then go back at them via the Council because you have already told them, in writing, about your problem.
I hope that this helps.
Rod
