i got a neighbour that has two sihtboxes outside on the road &lt;1 wich he drives all the time an one that seams to be used as a shed&gt;
both are not taxed &lt;1 for more than a year&gt; and look as though they ran away from the mot station &lt;leaving the bits that fell off behind&gt; so i guess they are not insured ethier and he cant drive so guess he aint got a licence too,

what bothers we is there aint enough parking were i live anyway so its a race to get home an find a spot &lt;and at the back of his house is a hardstanding for three cars unused&gt;

i have rang the council twice with no joy so i rang back an he said ring the police wich i did and they took all the details an still nothing.

ffs whats going on are they too busy in there vans with there speed cameras to wurry about a untaxed/moted/insured/licenced
car running someone over????????????????

Question

If he ever parkes over your drive the police could attend for obstruction and the book him for no tax. Otherwise what about the dvla (chitty chitty ad there was a phone no on there). What part of the council did you try? highways? keep pestering the police and perhaps theyll visit when they get fed up of you, but bear in mind the ill feeling of your neighbour if he finds out it was you who reported him - as you have to live nextdoor and youve got a car aswll.

Best not to get involved in other peoples buisness IMOH, and as for calling them ****boxes we all had to start somewhere with our cars so best not also to slag off other peoples cars just because you or we have better/nicer cars in our opinion.

You also deffo don't want him to find out you reported him.

Just my 2p's worth.

Mate of mine had same problem. He got the mobile No of a bent scrappy who came along and took the offending car away. Probably more difficult these days as log books etc are needed at the scrapyards. Still you never know.

Good starting place is Rover Way.

I totally agree with you NWS, going back last year, some no#head crashed their uninsured, untaxed and no mot'ed car into the back of my parked saxo . It was outside my house. The guy didnt have a license either. I had to pay the £100 excess, to be told by insurance company that I probably wont be able to claim it back (which I couldnt). He got away with a £75 fine and as he had a previouse conviction for the same, he had an extra 2 year ban on whatever he already had. But as he doesnt have a license any way what good is this?

Gareth........

Let us know when and where and a few of the boys can come around, with a bit of bumping and shaking we can shift it all to his side of the road!!!

Alternatively, a box of matches only cost 10p.......... much less than ALL those phonecalls you've been making!!

Hey Gar
Do you want me to come round and do his cars ?.
We are having a special this week on lighter fuel fire bombs placed on the exhaust manifold. He drives for about 3 minutes and ali bongo, his engine bay goes up in a small confligration. As for the one that never moves, easy phone the Babylon in Blue and tell them you say 3 lads dump it last night and run away.
Tell you what I will do it for the sheer joy
You got my number.
