You old fart!

If my neighbour did that to my car they would be in hospital having colonic irrigation to remove expanding foam blockage.

TBF, I do shut the valves and creep out before I unleash the dogs.

Criminal damage. Should be easy for the police to track down the culprit.

 

[lifes2short]

shocking, should of used banannas

 

[safrane]

Not neighbourly on either part.

Very much , we have to live next door and be considerate to our neighbours , for someone to get that irate .......................it must have become a constant source of irritation

One man's music is another man's din. It's all about courtesy. Whilst I'd never condone a can of Gorilla Filler up the chuff-pipes, you can assume the neighbours were pretty miffed and that this was a nocturnal irritant or they could far more easily have found out the source of the noise. I'd like to think that a gentle note under the windscreen would have been a better start point in the discussion.

As the note states "....I have finally found you", I suspect its more of the neighbourhood than neighbours.

Maybe he blats arond a local street rather than his own.

There is a guy near by who has a BMW with the worst exhaust I have ever heard and so loud. Parks in a walled area and starts up at 5 in the morning and lets the car sit there idling for 5 minutes before pulling off. I’m tempted.

My neighbours are all over 60 so I assume that they are deaf.

I also have a garage

In Sweden?? That's very un-Swedish behaviour. Your adopted felly countrymen tend to be far more socially aware.

No, my uk abode. I’m the loud one in my neighborhood

I've been very fortunate to have neighbours in both houses I've lived in whilst owning my GS who liked the car and the noise. The only person in my last road who didn't like the car was my ex-wife's divorce lawyer! He made sure to mention me owning it in just about every letter and court hearing throughout the process; my legal team and I had a standing joke about it. Once the divorce was finalised I may or may not have reversed it into his driveway and my right foot may or may not have slipped very *h ard on the accelerator a few times

*The typo is deliberate. The profanity/obscenity filter is clearly quite fierce and thinks I was professing to having an erection!!

maybe something like this

I am very careful with my cars early morning and late evening, during the day I am less thoughtful though, but never any complaints. I have one neighbour who makes a point of saying how they live to hear the V8’s start up, and another who waited by the transporter when the GTS was delivered back from Matts recently and wanted me to rev it for his kids to record.
On the other hand my old Hotrod was obnoxious on start up and used to set various car alarms off driving up the road however gentle I was, I changed the rear mufflers before any complaints though.
A little give and take is all that’s required.

 

[CatmanV2]

All my neighbours like the Masers. The only slight thing was in winter when I had to idle to de-mist and the drive is right below their (at that time) baby's window.

So I just crept down the road and waited until it was demisted.

I let the neighbours car-obsessed 8 yo sit in the drivers seat and told him he could rev the engine (in neutral don't worry!) and the little tyke sent it right up the the rev limiter by stomping on it.

Actually he was more impressed with the electric rear blind.....

Phew! I'd hate to think of those reserved northern socialists doing anything to upset the delicate fabric of societal conformity.

I hope he knew a good glazier. MAF.

PS - ******* is a strange one. Ours really is a very sensitive profanity filter. I wonder if Matt knows a way to edit it so that **** **** **** ******** and hard-on are allowed without having to resort to strange spellings?

PPS - ah-ha! It's not a profanity filter in this case. It's simply telling that you that you need a hyphen in your hard-on. And never a hard-on in your colon. Oh, what a strange mistress English grammar can be.

Glazier, roofer.... it may have been a prolonged foot slippage.....

The odd thing about the filter in this case is that it's prejudiced towards the innocent pairing of the words 'hard' and 'on', whereas it welcomes to the point of encouragement the 'hard-on'!
