Paint thrown over car!
Discussion
Hasn't been the best year so far and not helped when I walked out the house earlier to see someone had thrown paint down the side of the car.
Why?
We have no grudges or enemies to our knowledge and yet ours was the only car on the street to be done???
It's only an 05 plate Clio, but still rattles my cage.
The pure stupidness of it

Bet it's not random.
1) did you shout at a kid in your street or round the corner from your car?
2) mistaken identity - someone with a similar model/reg pissed someone off?
3) play music a bit too loud from the car?
4) have loud parties?
5) park outside a neighbour's house in "their spot"?
They probably muttered, "This'll teach him a lesson!" but it won't because it's like slapping a kid round the back of the head and when they ask "What did you do that for?" you say "Not telling you."

I had this happen to me a while back, GLOSS PAINT.
Got my thinking cap on and by chance I'd seen someone lurking around, I was tempted to sort it myself being as I'm powerfully built but I told the police, he was arrested and charged with criminal damage.
Went to court, I testified and he was found guilty. Received a community service order and I was awarded £1000 damages.
Best part is that it's paid at £20 a month so it's 50 reminders for him of the error of his ways.

Two weeks previously I'd asked a lad wandering by to keep his do on a lead, he took objection and stormed off muttering things about "Ill sort you out"I took a lot of pride in cleaning my car ( at the time a W12 Phaeton) and clearly he served his revenge cold.
Nothing since the incident though.
So it's worth wracking your brains as the simplest thing can bring out the vandal in some.

He had his do out in public??I took a lot of pride in cleaning my car ( at the time a W12 Phaeton) and clearly he served his revenge cold.

Probably just some random drunken t
t who found some paint in a skip back home to the s
thole they live.
Years back, i was staying around a girlfriends, heard a commotion and looked out to see 2 wasters running over my pickup. Of course by the time i got out, they were long gone . left half there kebab and 2 dents in the bonnet and roof.
I did consider driving around looking for them but glad i didnt now as i was that livid i would have literally driven straight over the top of them. Mind you, would have saved the DSS a few quid by now!

Blimey, sounds like a potential psycho. I took a lot of pride in cleaning my car ( at the time a W12 Phaeton) and clearly he served his revenge cold.

Talking about having a b
king for something you didn't know you did. I walked past my car in the car par k of the marina where I work and saw a piece of paper under one of my wipers. First thought was is a flyer, but none of the other cars had one. Pulled it out and in nice neat writing was "Stop driving like a tw@t please". I was with couple of boys from work and they seemed as concerned with as me. They said it wasn't them and I checked with everyone else in work (there's only 5 of us work there) and they all swore blind it wasn't them. So I spent the rest of the day trying to figure out if I'd upset anyone. There are a few grumpy locals about but I don't personally remember upsetting them. I then tried to think where else I could park and debated driving the Mrs car for a few weeks hoping to let things calm down and avoid my car being keyed. Talked to my best mate about it later the night and could sense something was up even over the phone. Turns out he popped down to his boat in the day and took the opportunity. I'm still trying to think of a good comeback.
