Angry Rear tyre slashed

Self explanatory, last night some time my rear drivers side tyre was slashed. Found out today at lunchtime, when the car was sitting on the ground. Massive slice out the wall. :(:(

So my hit list includes:
Egg's thrown at my car whilst driving;
Both door locks stuffed by scissors/pliers being snapped off inside.
Tyre slashed.

NOT HAPPY JAN!
Any body else been targeted?

cheers
scott

sorry to hear man...why is it we can never actually catch them in the act...street justice would fix it and set an example for the rest...

I've had
a) car keyed
b) woke one morning to find (sun dried) eggs smashed on my car
c) had glue thrown onto the boot
d) woke up boxing day morning after xmas and someone side swipped the rear door badly (clarinda rd oakliegh)
e)plus other bits and pieces
f) finally someone pinched the EA, and no insurance...so i've had my fare share..most of these incidences occured at different locations too, no one is stupid enough to stir up personally, its just bored di*kheads :

Cheers,
Big Rob

Damn, Scott. There are some tools out there. I've had someone break my fuel door trying to force it open, and I know most of the dints in my bonnet weren't my doing, but mine's nothing compared to that.

One of my housemates has had his car vandalised a couple of times. He drives a Daewoo wagon, and because some blokes were jealous of his girlfriend, they took it out on his car. The first time, they kicked in his drivers door and front right guard. The second time, they smashed his rear window. The cops know who did it, but there isn't enough evidence to convict them. It's very rough.

Last year my son went to Ballarat to a re-union at the pub. When he came out the two passenger side tyres ( closest to the footpath) on his EF had been slashed.
Had to leave the car there overnight as couldn't find an extra spare.
There are some lowlifes about!!!!

That is absolutely disgraceful to see Scott sorry to see this thread. I have never had my cars vandlised as such only shopping trolley dints on the XF and a few scratches on the LTD i noticed but will buff out. I wish the people could find somethime more constructive to do rather that vandlising others property/ Assets it is pitiful lowlife scum acting I say. I feel sorry for the people that this has happen to especially to Robtek who has no car now. BTW Rob I havent spotted it in Hoppers/Werribee sorry mate

Yeah it wasn't cool at all. Luckily only 1 wheel came off at the time. He even had locknuts on so it shows there a bit over rated. I've never had anything happen to my car but mind you i have a 6ft colourbond fence and a dog who goes spaz at people on the other side of the fence when its dark.

Locknuts are overrated. All you do is hammer a socket ontop of them and bobs your uncle. Thankfully most crims are too stupid to realise this.

As for my car;

1) Both front tyres slashed
2) Someone kicked the out of my front bar and put cracks and broke the plastic on the passenger side across the lip
3) Random stoner at 11PM on a pitch black road went nuts at my car with a metal rod whilst I drove past at 80km/hr
4) So many door dints its not funny. I no longer park in conventional carparks; I park in a freaking loading bay or on the verge
5) Rims scratched to shithouse from someone trying to nick them (taking of the nuts)
6) Jumped on my roof, luckily did all damage, but the rear above the window is now raised (hard to explain without seeing it).

Some people are just lowlifes and jealous/too slack to improve their own lives.

Even Cops experience it, two off duty officers have been bashed after they found a low life letting down the tyres of a Police car in the rocks.

You'd be amazed what they do to cop cars: missing licence plates, pulled out cables, loosened wheel nuts, syringes under the door handles...

I know we off people, but far out you'll need us in a hurry one day...

Charges over assault on off-duty officers - The Rocks

I know we say Karma alot around here, but I hope something gets slashed that belongs to that toe rag, something personal, something so personal he'll be sitting down in the toilet where he used to stand to do it.

I have heard a story somewhere that 4 kids went up to a police speed radar 4WD parked on the side of the road. Three of the kids went up and distracted the operator by asking how all the equipment worked and such, whilst the fourth was around the front unscrewing the number plate.

They then attached this plate to their car and drove past the 4WD or a stationary speed camera something like 15 times at high speed.

It really does anny me that some people are like this. You are right, the Police cop all of this stuff, but without the Police, there would be total and absolute anarchy, and mob rule no doubt.

You will find thats an urban myth, one of many stories that sound great but are not true.
