What can I do about my neighbours derelict cars.

[Rob 7]

My neighbour who I thought was a nice reasonable chap, came in to a few quid about 3 years ago and promptly went out and brought himself a M3 and the wife a Mini Cooper, very nice I hear you say.
My problem is the three cars he owned at the time (MK2 Fiesta, BMW 3 series and a Renault Espace) all on there last legs, have now sat on his drive for 3 years not moving going green with moss.
Once a every few weeks we get the local scrap men come round to try and buy them knocking on my door as well as his. I have said to him I’m not happy with these people coming round all the time, I have a 14 year old daughter the is home alone after school, speaking to his wife she has said she won’t open the door on her own because they scare her.
He won’t get a scrappy round because he thinks “they might be used in a robbery” (quote).
It’s got so bad he can’t get to his front door with out walking down my drive.
His daughter even asked me to move my car over so she could get her pushchair down MY drive.
I’ve tried all the nice routes now I just want to burn them.

What can I do

Burn them

[alliray]

Burn them........and then burn the cars!!

[Galileo]

Seriously, not much I'm afraid. You could try the local council. If they are unsightly (and they can be bothered) they can make him remove them.

[wombat172a]

Have you considered burning them?

[mybrainhurts]

What about burning them...?

[papabear]

Offer him £150 for the lot, sign the log book etc. Then sell them to the scrappy for £250

Job done.

[lazyitus]

Bid them in the bks and if they sell to you, sell them on and make a profit.

[mybrainhurts]

What about buying them and selling them on at a profit..?

[BoRED S2upid]

Post pics of the 3 series. If its an E30 it might be worth buying it yourself.

im gonna go with your first opinion and the masses and burn them, personaly you should have done it over fireworks night and made a night of it, but burn them is an option,

[Los Palmas 7]

Has anyone suggested burning them yet?

[fathomfive]

Might have been said before, but could you burn them?

[jamesson]

Never mind burning them, have you thought about setting fire to them?

[Don]

I like the burning them idea. But perhaps it might be wise to move them from being next to your house first.

Would it be possible to steal them, drive them 100yards down the road and then burn them?

[Nolar Dog]

Move house?

There's not a great deal you can do. Offer him £whatever it's worth to you to get them shifted.

Go on the DVLA website , vehicle enquiry section, type in the registration numbers and see if they have been sorn.

If not you could phone the DVLA to remind them these are not sorned and he may get a letter prompting him to remove them.

You could just burn them

Or Nuke them from orbit if you have the stuff knocking around to do it

[curtisl]

you could offer a couple of cans of stella to the local youths to pinch them, or let the handbrakes off and push them out into the road then call the council/police to get the moved, or lastly, this may be a bit out there, you could burn them.

I neither condone underage drinking, criminal damage or car BBQ's

[Gargamel]

Do your local firebrigade accept cars to use as practice for cutting people out of cars.

They often will,

And they may even burn them for you

Obtaining the necessary quantity of refined uranium might be difficult. A gallon of petrol on the other hand for the "burn them" option might not be cheap - but is relatively easy to purchase...
