In short, if a current owner could let me know what would fit snuggly in to the exhaust tips to create an Axl Foley-style kangaroo on start-up (standard tennis ball, perhaps?), it would be much appreciated.

It needs to be perfect, with no room for error. The potato option offers too many variables.

I usually use expanding foam, no need to match to the pipe diameter you see.
I don't want to cause any lasting damage; just something 'harmless' to make a very selfish person think twice before potentially looking quite foolish.

WTF??

How about leaving the car alone? What if you damage the car?
If you want to make a point, leave a note
A note will not work, judging by the disdain that this pinched-nosed 'super estate agent' shows other road users when he blocks the approach to the town's main crossroads so that he can save 2 minutes by parking bang outside the sandwich shop.

He actually gave a gallic shrug to the lorry driver that had the temerity to beep him today. The lorry driver was blocked by Mr TT's boneheadedness, and had to wait for TT man to receive his skinny latte before carrying on his journey.

There is a massive car park 50 meters from the shop in question.

Edit: He also wears a quilted jacket, which itself is not so much of an issue. However, leaving the collar turned up so as to reveal the Burberry-check lining for all to admire just irks me over the edge.

You won't stop a guy acting like a selfish tt by acting like a tt yourself!

This sort of behaviour really gets on my nerves, it is not the car's fault it's owner is a dick, if you damage the car rather than dealing with the owner you are a first rate tt who deserves far worse than the guy who parks inconveniently.
I wouldn't dream of damaging the car, hence I was looking for a 'safe' solution to create some embarrassment.

I've stalled my own car by blocking the exhaust with my hand (many moons ago, although I can't remember why I had to do it now), and wasn't aware it would cause any damage.

I am happy to be proved wrong, of course.

Complain to the company he works for.

Easy.
Probably a better option, granted. Won't be quite as satisfying, but correct all the same.

Mods - you may as well delete this one. I'm off to the 'Juvenile things that make you snigger' thread for some light relief instead.
