Just 1 week after i got my first A2 it was hit by a stone, it left a spiderweb on my windscreen. Got it repaired so it wouldn't crack any further.
A couple weeks after this incident i got hit by a stone again, smaller, but still left a beginning spiderweb in one of the corners. They have tried to repair it but the window broke so i got a new one.
As i drove happy around for about three weeks with my new windscreen, i got hit again yesterday. :mad:

I really don't know how to avoid getting hit by stones, it is getting on my nerves because my insurance is getting difficult.
With al the cars i have owned in the past i have never been hit so many times in such a short time. Has it something to do with the model of the car or is it just me not being lucky?

Hi Jorgen
I think you have just been unlucky. For sure I don't recall any other Club members having similar problems

Cheers Spike

Maybe keeping a greater distance to the vehicle in front of you will help.

I got whacked by a stone about 3 months ago.. A pretty deep Chip.. Luckily no spider effect yet. However wait till the Winter.
