Car taken without consent!

[Stu999]

As for the lad who took the car, he knew it was a flier. He said he wanted to get it done before anyone saw him. He smashed the window, couldn't undo the steering lock, dragged the car with a winch that only got it "just" on the bed and apparently half the car was hanging off. I rather hope the lad was wishing he'd never got involved haha - good.

I don’t get this bit. Did you tell him it was yours and not to move it?

I told him it was mine but he could take it. It was looking nasty, tyres down, one wing mirror missing, fairly green. I don't blame the Chinese for being annoyed about it.

He could have been in a whole world of poop. If colleagues had arrived after the car was gone then yes, it would be a police issue. I could have gone to town and said take it off, you've damage my property etc etc but it's useful that it's gone. If the parking gets bad again then I know what worked. I'm just annoyed at the one particular Chinese lady as she's a bit of a cowbag.

Well, thats not theft then is it.

This story seems to be changing as the day goes on.

Eh?

Eh again?

My advise would be to grow up, stop being so petty and get a better hobby than winding up your neighbours. But I doubt that's the kind of answer you're looking for.

Poo through their letterbox.

I dunno ... I would not be happy if people parked on my land without permission and I would be positively peed off if they then had a go at ME parking my stuff on there.

To be fair he says as much in the first post. So id argue its people not reading it properly.

as for this point I would have still pressed charges personally. if he had naively believed the restaurant owner I would have had some sympathy but smashing the window and damaging the car not wanting to be seen he knew he was nicking it that could just have easily been someone's car, say an elderly person who had a heart attack and had been rushed to hospital or summat.....

Open a competing Chinese takeaway and take all their business.

Hopefully the Chinese woman doesn't own the parking spaces out the front.

 

[EddScott]

Never mind, corrected above.

 

[Worthy]

Print one of those "Food Hygiene 0" labels out and stick it on the window where they can't see.

 

[Nasher]

Yea a Thai restaurant and complain that the Chinese are trying to take your land

 

[darael]

Order lots of takeaways and have them all deliver to the Chinese takeaway. Preferably Chinese takeaways.

 

[Kenai]

The price of takeaways these days, it'd be cheaper to buy three cars to park there

 

[Removed User 345456]

I wouldn't be so innocent about the lad taking it, he hasn't got the V5, and has probably been paid by the Chinese woman, and he'll have weighed it in minutes later and made some money off it or sold parts off it. Don't be so easily fooled.

Definitely get the police involved.

IF not, find out where the Chinese woman and the lad live, and nail frozen sausages into their lawn, trust me

 

[Uther]

What was actually happening was when one of the spaces was being used, it made access to one of ours difficult.

To be honest, it didn't bother me at first but after one particular argument I wasn't prepared to continue to let people park on our land.



Yes, this is the next option.


Oh? Do tell.



Yes, it's registered to me. I'll have to declare it being disposed off today.

Report it stolen.

At most all theyll do is visit. If no sign of rodents theyll leave it be....


However...
A mate who was in the army years ago, Fell out with his local Chinese takeaway. One saturday night whilst walking home he found a dead cat. He picked it up Took a newspaper out of a bin and wrapped it up (poorly), Walked into the takeaway, slammed it on the counter and exclaimed "Thats the last one your getting until you pay for all the others"
