I know this is not about my TVR, but I parked my BMW 330 in a carpark at lunchtime today and came back to see that it had been keyed the entire length of the car. Any ideas as to what I should do if I ever catch the culprit? I've got my own ideas.

Key the otherside of your car with his/their head, so your car will match and also you get self satisfaction

I think your ideas will be the same as mine.

You could report him to the BIB, and the courts will slap his legs, give him a £5 fine and say 'dont do it again'.

Give him a stern talking to on the merits of good neighbourly behaviour in a modern democratic society.

It would be totally inappropriate to suggest you brake his kneecaps with a hammer and nail him up side down by his stumps.

Take the car round to Mr Miagi's.

He can hopefully show you how to repair the paint work (wax on, wax off) while also teaching you the ways of Karate.

All you have to do then is persuade the guily party to enter a no-holds-barred Martial Arts contest so you can kick his butt!

Nah, as the keyer was probably Chav scum, you're only likely to improve her looks!

I keep a shovel and a large sack of Quick Lime in the back of the Tiv for just this sort of scenario.......

Joe Pesci in Goodfellas tells you all you need to know.

Happy digging

Seriously though, what is the world coming to? You leave your car for five minutes to pop to the shops and some moron makes a big deep scratch in your motor - for no reason whatsoever! It seriously makes my blood boil. Reminds of John Travolta in Pulp Fiction: "It'd be worth them doing it just to catch them".

Being pragmatic, I do take some cold comfort in one thing though. They've obviously got a serious case of "car envy" and with an IQ of about 30 I doubt they'll ever amount to anything. As such, they're the ones that will go through life envious of everyone else. As for me, I'll put my hand in my pocket, pay for it to be fixed and get on with living a civilised life.

As reported on here, I had my Chim keyed by what I thought was some passing scote in Bournemouth.

Paid for the repairs myself to save on no claims.

Didn't report in to the police and so had no crime number.

Turns out that the person who did it lived in the house I parked outside.

He was caught in the act by a police observation unit thingy after a lot of other people had had the same done to them.


I now have his name and address.



I'm very tempted.....................................

Good on ya Steve. It's nice when one of those toe-rags get a taste of their own medicine. A mate of mine's a copper and nothing pleases him more than a victim who gives a thief a deserved beating, because coppers can't do it!

I've got a record now for ABH for hitting a 15yr old little sh*te with a housebrick after I caught him and his mates with my stolen m/bike.

Would it stop me next time?
YES. I wouldn't bother calling the police next time.

I would grab the little bleeder, take him somewhere quiet and dark and kick him half to death. Then go home and visit a friend who would confirm I had been there all the time.

And I am not alone in this thought. I would happily do the same for any of my friends.

BTW. the ABH was in 1985, who said you get mellow in your old age?!

Feck man, you beat the living shite out of him, on the floor and slam his head on the edge of the pavement, and then turn him around and jump down on his knees on the edge of the pavement so that his lower legs rip out of their socket! and then call your mate dave and his white van, and take him down the local incinirator, and blow the ashes away.

This is something I feel very deeply about, I want the ways of the old wild-west back!

It aint stopped me, and will never, you know why? Because I'm not in the feckin wrong:

1993 - Got done with my old man for beating the shite out of some local footballer for throwing up in our front garden, down in Luton.

1994 - Went down for 2 years in Feltham young offenders shite hole for GBH and intent to kill kinda rap, sons of bi**hes tried to steal from my mothers car, I just lost it and ran after them with my old mans baseball bat.

1996 - Court and a big fine for GBH again, but they let me off the hook as it was kinda seen as self-defence thanks to the onlooking feckin pu**y of the public just standing there and not giving a hand, this git was trying to thief the stereo system out of someones car in broad daylight!

97-00 went smooth...

2001 - Some git in a feckin volvo scrape'd the living shite out of my cerbera, he wasnt insured, this one was dealt with in a very personal manner, least to say, he wont be doing that again soon.

2002 - Ended up in the banger again, for stopping in the middle of the A505 main road cos some knobby skinhead thought he'd throw a pack of fish'n'chips at my car - bought the traffic to a standstill and sent his jaw and right arm to hospital... got charged and all that but got let off the hook, as they saw the funny side of it...

2003 - Some brat stole my freakin TVR badge - case closed recently!

2004 - Clean.

I dont care who it is, a feckin 300lb fatsole or a scarred up italian villain, when someone causes harm to either you or your family or property, you send them to the cemetary, and if he's some feckin Bruce Lee or Tyson, you get next man to do it!

Right on SXS! These scum just need sorting out full stop, any way what we the victims deem reasonable.

Should you ever come down to Dorset, could you let me know?

I'll stay indoors until you're gone; no danger of even making eye contact that way.....................................................
