Hope no one out in their Porsche in Leicester!!!

Leicester had a massive thunder storm before, tornado, hail the size of golf balls. My bro's car (company car fortunately) must have at least 100 dents the size of 10 pence pieces; his alloys even have dents in them!!!

Are Porsches the only cars affected by hailstones then?

Photos? There has certainly been some atrocious weather across the Midlands today. You can't get in to Birmingham as the A38 is flooded and so closed.

They're the worst I've seen in this country; miniscule compared to the US however...

Just keeping it relevant to the part of the forum I frequent

Should just add, people are more important, but...you know!

The first time we went to the lakes in Italy we couldn't work out why all the cars looked like they had been shot with machine guns, until someone told us it was hailstones. Wouldn't want that to happen to my car, and really wouldn't want to be in a car whilst it happened.

I've seen the same in Marbella of all places - loads of cars looking like they were parked on a golf driving range - every panel and most of the glass. Probably write offs on the older cars?
