Anyone who has ever had a car, or any property vandalised would like to meet the person who did it. The people who have had to endure repairing wing mirrors etc that have been broken should be allowed to deal with him.
He has probably been doing it for years and finally gets caught.
Nothing will happen at court, I would bet.

The hammer suggests to me that it was personal rather than wanton!

Westcliff - I lived there and remember it when it was a poor but still decent area.

I thought mainly OAP's lived in that road and most of them have their own driveways so don't expect it was a parking problem. I went to the football at the weekend and saw the car - it was a complete write off - no one was brave enough to park behind it!
