Thoroughly THOROUGHLY Pee'd Off
« on: 24 April 2010, 12:46:08 »

Gave the wife Audi 80 a bit of a clean up last night and made some signs up. £375, Bargain.

Took it to work today and left it with the signs on where I always leave my car, opposite a car sales. Came out at half 11 to find 'someone' had covered it with broken bricks and glass. I had left the roof on tilt so they had filled the interior up  with brick dust and glass then completely doused it all with water.

Angry is an understatement to what I am feeling at the moment. No point in calling the old bill as im sure they wont do anything.

I was meant to be taking my babies to the farm this afternoon for a nice trip out, thats not going to happen now.

God, I just want to punch someone!

Agreed.... 

As to who - my initial guess is the garage opposite, taking the hump that someone is selling next to their 'pitch'.  Guessing its not a main dealer??

100% the garage near where it was parked! They were all standing around with a hose in their hand smirking at me.

Its not as though my car was competition. They sell circa 5k motors, how could a £375 Audi cause them sleepless nights!

Why would someone be so moronic as to do that? I'd go and talk to the car sales people, ask if they saw anything...it may be them, it may not be.
But I'd phone the police, Lincolnshire police's non emergency number is; 0300 111 0300
It would do good to get if officially reported.

Sorry, bit slow in my other reply...in that case it seems most likely to be them.

I'm a motor trader, and what would hurt me the most would be a visit from trading standards, refusal of a renewal of my trade plate licence or just bad press.

Spoke to a very nice lady on that number, thanks Joshwyatt. She reckons they've got CCTV in that area, but I honestly cant see them taking the time to look.

Trying to figure out ways of getting the garage back without resorting to damaging behaviour, drawn a blank so far, my mind keeps coming back to a dark night and a nail but I can guarantee I'd be caught, and tbh its just not in my nature.

Did you take a few pics of the car?

My course of action would be to go into the garage and ask if the saw anything (to which they will say "No"), then just say that you'll be speaking to the police and letting the local press know so they can highlight the problem of anti-social behaviour in the area (nudge, nudge).

Really do feel for you, though. I'd be beside myself and seeing those garage monkeys smirking at me would have made me incandescent with rage. It's quite clear to me that they were involved.

Dead easy.

Get your mates to go for some F1 style tewst drives in thier cars and lay some rubber, nice exspensive car, srub a couple of wheels parking it up, stuff em.

On the test drive make sure they leave a dead kipper under the seat. :y :y :y  May need a passenger sat in the back behinnd the saleman for that.  ::)

Revenge is a dish best served cold.  Clean the car, get it spotless again and get it sold.  Then when everyone has forgotten about this I would suggest some serupticious retribution that cannot be linked back to you.

I myself prefer the dead kipper under the front bumper method.  I was victim to not-so-funny prack from a rather nasty colleague.  I did nothing for months, and then when he was away for several weeks during which time I was moving to another job I struck.  He didn't find it for weeks and by the time he figured out it was me I was well gone  :y

I agree with gaffers, strike now and it is obvious who did it.
