Douchebag parking - actions?

Buy the cheapest car you can find.

Ask your neighbour with the Nissan if they can park somewhere else on Saturday evening.

On Sunday if they park in the bay then stick the cheap car right in front as they do.

how long has been going on for ?
if a few weekends already, i would have contacted the police already !

I'm surprised your neighbour hasn't done so already, its his car that's blocked in, i assume he doesn't need to use it at the weekends then ? on the off chance he NEEDS it, and cant get it out then what ?

contact the police 101

you could park there before he returns again next time?

Absolutely no idea why they haven't done anything (at least openly...) either. The Nissan is very often there for days on end, so I suspect rarely used. I could certainly park in the bay and then get blocked in, which would give me more traction with the police when this happens again.

I can't really park there before they return, because it's not an actual bay, it's the driveway between the actual bays (where the Toyota is) and the individual house bays on the right.

After today's anticlimax of having been out all day, I'll see if it happened again. There's a brilliant curtain twitching neighbour who will know, and who often remonstrates with people behaving like berks, so I shall find out.

Yes very poor show on my part. I intentionally started this thread yesterday so that I'd have some tips to deploy today, but then hefty let down having to drive 120 miles to pick up something the missus had bought...
Ah ha, whiplashing by a significant other is an acceptable excuse. :)

E: Will be interested to hear how it pans out as the whole parking in people's spots, driveways, in front of drive seems to always be a more murky affair than common sense would have you believe.

Causing a block that would perturb a whole block of drivers at the same time seems particularly brazen though.

Shrink wrap the car next time he parks there.

Either that, or put a potato up the exhaust in such a way that you can’t see it, and it blocks the exhaust.
The car will have problems starting.
 
Most modern cars don’t have lock barrels.

Shrink wrap is annoying to remove. Potato will stop the car from starting, but is easy to remove.
Neither cause damage to the car, which could get you in trouble.
