17mm spanner and washing up bowl. Drop the oil out in the dead of night, van is no more.
I like this Van drives off gets hot and candle falls out.....
Dog st smeared on the inside of the door handle is a superb idea.
Thing is with any of these ideas it has to be very clear it wasn't you.
Recently we were having / are having lots of building work going on so need loads of access on the road for deliveries. As such we don't currently have a drive but aim to park directly in front of he house so if an early delivery or skip removal or scaffolding truck arrives we can move ours with ease.
However a couple of occasions visitors (as in over night visitors) to some house on the street have parked there before us.... as it has turned out and purely by chance each and every time there has been a super early delivery or skip removal or dumper truck drop off.(this is Sat deliveries) so they had to knock on the houses which naturally they moved but were in PJs.

In the car park I park my car (yes im council) there is also garages. Two of the garages is owned by the same family.
Were do I start with this one tbh....
I have lived in my house for 17 years now and in that time I have once or twice had the gaul drive into the space they think they own in front of thier garage space.
If anyone parks within a yellow box they painted on the ground they come to my house even though its never me.
At one point I bought a van and parked it right upto the yellow line they painted.....Why because although they had plenty of space to get out they would make a hash of it. 30mins-a full hour could be had watching them get a astra out of the 2nd from end garage or a fusion out of the end garage because of the van and getting them in was even funnier tbh.
It was a total war for over 8 years and although it has calmed some, They would still call to my door shouting the odds about some car I know nothing about so I get a new van/caravan/skip/old car and park it right on the line of the yellow box they have painted to give them space.
Sounds bad but it took me 4-5 years of full on her shouting at me in the street because some car that i knew nothing about was parked a inch to close to her garage and she had to goto hospital everytime it happened.( at one point she had to goto hospital over 3 times a day for 8 weeks for i assume was blood pressure or a weight lose program)
I think I won the war because in the last 3 years she has only called on average 1 time a year and said sorry for calling bout do i know who owns the car parked in the car park instead of I am gonna kill you and your family if you dont tell whoever owns the car in the car park to move lol.
Do some people have too much time on their hands?Were do I start with this one tbh....

Tow it to the next town and leave it on a car park.
He cannot steer it. Does OP know which house the van relates to? If so drop your car blocking his drive £ pro quo

I'm not sure whether I would have moved my car or told you to do one; I would have been seriously peeved to have been woken up early to be asked to move my perfectly legally parked car so as to facilitate your delivery.However a couple of occasions visitors (as in over night visitors) to some house on the street have parked there before us.... as it has turned out and purely by chance each and every time there has been a super early delivery or skip removal or dumper truck drop off.(this is Sat deliveries) so they had to knock on the houses which naturally they moved but were in PJs.

With massive signs on the exterior stating building works and keep enterence clear for deliveries of materials. Note you'd not have told me to "do one" it would be the scaffolders or any delivery of materials (were talking needing a big truck mounted crane).
Note due to location of telegraph poles they cannot make a delivery onto my drive it's around the side of the post otherwise (as it did happen) they broke a few telephone cables with a jib.
Actually I'm not sure any visitor would state to someone in street to "do one" especially from a street with close neighbours where a number of street bbqs and golf tournaments happen.

Some old bugger parked on my drive once when visiting a neighbour, I blocked her in as I had to park behind her. I was thinking she'd knock on the door to ask me to move when she'd finished her tea and cakes. Oh no, she just pulled forward slightly driving into a wall then reversed through a hedge to get round my car. Some people shouldn't be allowed to drive! Made me laugh through!
