You could re-enact the Karma Police video and chase them down the road! ;D (Just make sure they're not carrying matches and you've not got an oil leak!  ) |

Someone did that to my lowrider when I had it. When I was a kid if I'd have seen a full on custom car I'd have been in awe and given it full respect, not nicked bits off it. Theiving little chavster bastards  |

I hate the little bastards! About a month ago some of the little silly-billies splashed white paint all over the side of My 74 Imp (my daily driver!). It came off with a good wash in soapy water eventually, but if I found out who done I'd slit their throats with an angle grinder! |

It's unbelievable. If I do see the chav scum with them on his bike he better get pedalling. It's the principal of it really - I mean I just got home and ordered some more off eBay, but it just gets to me that anyone with anything half decent just becomes a target. Still, it ain't as bad as Portugal - when I lived there, there were guys standing round in the street who'd guide you into parking spots. You gave them a few Escudos and they would "watch" your car (that is to say, you gave them a few scoods and they wouldn't damage your car!) Everyone used to unscrew their aerials! Nice country though. It'll be my star that goes next. I'm thinking of wiring it to a taser |

I had some dice valve caps nicked from one of my previous jam jars...
...However, I recently got some anodised locking ones, which are available in a choice of 10 colours. Difficult to steal - I ried once I fitted them, just to see.

I'm not too sure about the locking valve caps, if a thief was trying hard enough they may damage the valve tube itself (if they are the normal rubber ones) Which could prove dangerous  I just fit the normal black plastic dust caps - 'function over form' |

At least that's all they do to yours! Besides the paint being poured on my Imp, the disgusting bloody little bastards have scratched the paintwork god knows how many times, and I caught some trying to pull my mirrors off once (it's a good thing the bullet mirrors I use are massively overengineered considering how little they weigh and they were bolted on tight into the bonnet!) they bolted pretty fast but if they come back near my Imps I'll bloody run them over!
And if there is a Merc in this town that still has a three pointed star on the front, it's either a brand new Merc, has just had a new star put on, or the owner is very very very protective and careful of where he parks!

Mercedes deliberately sell their stars cheap (well they used to, I'm not sure about now) This was because they didn't like seeing star-less cars going round, and they hoped to put people (are they really people?) who steal them off, as they can't sell them for much.
One guy I saw adapted his star so it retracted into the bonnet - a la Rolls Royce!! Might be a future project!

That's bloody sickening! Whoever done that should be doused in petrol and set on fire themselves!
