Legally? I've an idea who it is, but it's an old bloke, so not eager to go wading in, will police do anything?

Ta

 

Catch him on a dark night and break his knees with a baseball bat and then `key` his wrinkly old face

Police won`t give a monkeys mate

 

CCTV tell the police but before that get someone to have a word with him in a nice way?

 

Porsche is on the drive, I have to park it on the street, out of sight of the CCTV unfortunately

 

i had the exact same problem when we lived in London

old boy would scratch cars as he walked his dog early in the morning

I, together with the next door neighbour, workout he only did to what he considered badly parked cars – and we caught him doing it (but he did not see us)

We reported it to the local police – who were brilliant, they set up a sting operation (they hid in a van) one morning and caught him – he had a nail clenched in the hand etc

Prosecuted him too – he did not do it again after that

 

I'm not sure when he does it

 

keep your conscience clear , pay someone to thump him

 

does he walk a dog/get the morning paper etc

 

he's really old, I upset his bit on the side a few months ago, a neighbour saw him cross the road towards my car other day then when I came outside he crossed back to the other side of road this was my Porsche as I'd just washed it

 

Only occasionally goes out but walks everywhere no set pattern at all.

 

Approach him and apologise for upsetting his mrs, its the only logical thing to do, even if you are in the right and have to do it through gritted teeth.

 

**** punt is the only answer.

 

notify police m8 see what they do if nothin g done then take it into your own hands

 

"**** punt" ???

New one on me....

Shaun

 

its the male version of a **** punt

 

If you know where he lives, sign him upto as much spam post as possible. The specific subject matter of said spam is your own choice dependant on the severity of the issue.


Or move the CCTV.

 

I went to have a word with him, he wouldn't open the door... Ring the local plod tomorrow. Cheers for the replies. Lol @ **** punt

 

Good luck with this. Some people just need to be locked up.

 

Had someone do this to my car once.
Spoke to a mate and low and behold the guy who had done my car had every panel scratched and a lump of concrete deposited on the roof to the point I never saw his car again as it was written off.I think his hire car was also scratched,whilst waiting for his insurance to sort things out for him.
I can only put this down to coincidence.!!

 

Go to inter flora order a reef
Put it on his door step for him to open the door to in the morning
You will be not missed.
Scratch

 

Wish he had a car, walking stick only

 

snap his ****ing stick, then push him over and say enjoy...

Probably didn't help the country back in the day either!

 

stop him on the street one day and scratch his walking stick see how he feels the old ****
on a more serious note,it probably best to try to get him on cctv and go to police.
hope you get it sorted

 

No he's scummy, big time.

 

This is awful. How can you tolerate this? It must cost you a fortune in repairs let alone the stress in anticipation of when the next scratch appears..
Post dog **** through his letter box and brick his windows! I do not condone crime but this guy needs to taste his own medicine.
Jesus!

 

Try to catch him in the act somehow, either with a few people or on film. Also, you said a neighbour had seen him do it? Use that as well. The more witnesses the better. You'll be laughing your **** off when you get him done and he has to fork out damages. Stupid old c*nt! I must say, I've never heard of old people keying cars before, yet here there are two reports of it in the same thread!

 

It's on my mondeo, so I'm not crying, but it was in bloody good condition before, now I've got 4 scratches that are obvious

 

stake out the drive after buying a gas powered bb snipers rifle with silencer he won't know what hit him, and trust me 400fps 6mm bb's hurt like **** at 20-30mtrs.

 

id try getting him on camera 1st, then once youve got proof tell him you have and you want the damage paying for or youll take him to small claims court etc, bit of blackmailing never hurt anyone, then wrap his walking twig round his ankles :-)

 

It's interesting to read how some people seem to think the best solution to someone scratching a car is violence Very brave, especially against a supposed old man!

This place is very strange sometimes.

Get the cops to sort it, you'll zero sympathy from the law if you get physical
