Need a bit of advice please..

A couple of weeks ago I parked my car in an Asad's car park. I parked on the outskirts of the car park and there was a kerb at the end of each parking space. The kerb looked just like any normal kerb you would come across.

Anyway, I drive a 7 seater Vauxhall Zafira as I have 2 kids and 2 sets of grandparents, and as it is a long car I tend to drive right in to the parking space till my wheels touch the kerb so that I know the car is definitely fully in the spot. I did this, as usual, but this time, I heard a grating noise as I parked. I stopped immediately, however when I reversed, my bumper was pulled off the car by about 2 inches, the headlight looked dodgy and the whole front of the car was boogered.

I have had to get the car repaired through my insurance so have lost my no claims bonus and had to pay an excess of £200. The repairs came to approx £700 in the end.


So, the question is, am I..

1. a bad driver who should suffer the consequences of my bad parking?
2. a good driver who hasn't claimed on his insurance for 25 years who should seek some kind of compensation from Asad's?

I have no idea what the answer is, just hoping one (or more) of the Elite can assist. If I should try Asad's, is there an email address I should contact?

Thanks
DJ

sorry but its your fault IMO (not saying bad driver though;)) :A

Thanks guys. I will try sending Asad's an email, however you have all managed my expectations beautifully, so I will not expect anything back at all.

However, maybe I should suggest that rather than compensation, they offer me a free hour raking through all their bins/skips to see how many wombles I can get. Now that, I can definitely live with!!:D:D

i would word it as compensation in the form of the adsa bins from ss and out side and a genral sweep of car park will be fine my hobbie is collecting rubbish/bits and wuld help with the healing prosses:eek::rotfl:;)

we dont want asda police after you naw do we
