Brenna Anderson (19), of Andersons Bay, hands over her dented car to Shiny Mike's Auto Panel and Paint owner Mike Patrick in Green Island last night.

Earlier this month, Miss Anderson saw a man run across the bonnet of her Toyota Corolla and slide across its roof, outside her Dunedin home, as a group of people drank alcohol in a former rural fire truck.

After reading the ODT report, two friends, Midway Motors owner Chris Henderson and Mr Patrick agreed to help Miss Anderson free of charge.

Mr Henderson would lend her a car to drive while Mr Patrick repaired her car's dented roof.

Mr Henderson hoped, when the man who damaged the car ''grew up'' he would be pleased someone had helped Miss Anderson.

Miss Anderson said she was taken aback by the kind offer.

''I'm baffled someone else would do this for me and my wee car.''

Miss Anderson said police had recently told her inquiries into who damaged her car were continuing.
