By far you're not the only one. Most of our low sitting cars feature 'badges of honor' from the urban jungle. The danger of dings and scratches is lurking everywhere in the city.

But sometimes there's a lucky escape. And you got to cherish those moments too. During one of the very first weeks I misjudged the ground clearance of the (stock) exhaust tips while reverse parking my car close to a nastily high side walk. I got away with a lucky near miss: no hit, no scratch - just the heart skipping a beat upon noticing the virtually zero ground clearance.

What is great is all the evidence of those not so fortunate. That curb has seen German tanks from the looks of it.

Well that's the most flattering angle to compare. In reality it's just based on VGT, it's toned down a lot as expected.
