    I had some moronic *astar* scratch all down one side of my car about 10 years ago, I even watched him do it.
    Problem was I was watching through the telescopic sight of a high power rifle from 200 yds away at the time. But oh, the temptation:mad: :mad:
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed

  • You should contact the police if for nothing more than to let them know a crime has been committed. It will be recorded. More crime = more money to deal with crime.

    Thanks for all the replies - so many!

    not contacted police yet, but will phone the community beat warden tommorow, as i highly suspect this has happened either on our drive or when i parked outside a carshowroom the other day. Luckily the car dealer said they will review their CCTV on Monday for me.
    thanks again for the support...

    BTW if i catch the b&gger who did this i will do the same to xxxx!

    Guess it's become one of the unfortunate facts of life living in Labour's wonderful Britain. If you have something someone else doesn't they can cause whatever damage they like to it and you have to foot the bill to repair it if you want to keep it looking good. Then as soon as you catch them at the act and grab them by their ear then that's assault and you're in the slammer.


    eh??? some people are arseoles, full stop. how can u blame the govt for bad behaviour? u think there was no crime before 1997???

    Well the govt could do more to punish this sort of behaviour to act as a deterrent

    bring back capital punishment if i had my own way.....but failing that a few weeks community service picking up rubbish and dog dirt in the local parks should suffice:eek:

    We are far too soft of these low lifes. I aint talking about prison but I do think that many should do something positive and help others, there are plenty of people who could do with help
  • couple of years ago we had loads of nice cars scratched on our estate, turned out to be a guy in his 70's doing it whilst walking his dog, funny thing was he was the guy in the thick of all the action saying he had seen kids doing it
