Noisy car

the car port was under the flat, hence it reverberated round it, and he worked shifts

A whole load of egg boxes stuck everywhere would've sorted that.

Bit late now though.

I draw the line at 2am, and 5 am, turning the car on and leaving it for 2 minutes, it wasn't even that flash, he was just having a fag before getting intot he damn thing.

This is cheap housing so one cannot be choosy obviously as it caters for all sorts, but I have lived in many places and never experienced an issue before, so it was fairly unique.

But to make a choice of choosing to make your car loud, then live very close to a heck of a lot of people and park under their homes, sorry to me that is at least ignorant if not selfish

Friend of mine has a Harley Fat Boy.

He wheels it off the drive and down the road when going out, switches off and coasts the last 100m or so when coming back.

It really is stupidly loud.

Good to know he’s being considerate to 0.001% of the people he passes in it!

How practical do you think this would be for a bloke with a car in an underground garage?

He could not swap parking spaces as they were all full

Did you suggest swapping with your parking spot?

I realise it's sorted now, but did you actually speak to him at all? I see it was suggested many times but I didn't see if you did?

A loud motorcycle is really no bother to the 99.999% of people who hear it pass once in their lives. But showing consideration to his neighbours to have to listen to it twice every time he goes for a ride is surely something to be applauded.
