spurswes Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 That's Awfull,really hope the move goes well for you mate.....If it's any consolation I doubt it's a problem with you personally,it could be jeousley because of of the make,model,engine size,it could be because of the colour that the vandals like do much they're jealous or it could be the pure fact they don't give a f... and just pick on one car.Its not uncommon to hear about a lovely colour car getting keyed.Hope the b...ards get caught Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I'd rather have the car keyed than get stabbed walking back lol... Are there other SD tags in the area? Seems stupid to write their own initials if that's what they are!

biff55 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 terrible to have to endure mnidless vandalism , the feckers deserve flogging. but being realistic , a mk1 focus is hardly such a desirable car to evoke jealousy or car envy if im being honest. you must report it to the police as carving letters into the paint seems more significant to me than just random damage from a passer-by........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf1242 Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 Thanks for all the advise il have a look at getting one of them dummy cameras and il get the paint sorted tomorrow if it happens again il go to the police Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wangarai Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I saw an issue like this recently. I have to park my car 10 minutes walk from my work in a residential area with unrestricted parking. I came back one night to find a one series BMW parked in my boot, about an inch from my bumper. Thankfully there was enough room at the front to manoeuvre out with lots of effort! I avoided parking near the house but over the next few weeks I saw the same thing happen to other cars. Then one week I noticed the bmw had been keyed over every panel on the footpath side. The next week someone had then carved swirls and letters (possibly a word?) in the bonnet. I'm assuming it's been someone in the same predicament, or it could be vandals. Anyway, it's really out of order but does go to show the mentality of some people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
