Anyway gutted for you mate you've certainly more chilled than I am. Would be hunting the scumbags down.

You do seem remarkably calm about the whole thing, though I guess the insurance will cover it although increase your premium at the same time

It may be worth asking around the 'hood to see if anyone saw anything

WTF that's no random attack who carries brake fluid around just in case they want to wreck a car, a random attack you might get one window broken but not that many, that must have made quite a bit of noise someone must have heard/seen them, mind you i would have thought your alarm would have gone off, i hope scum responsible get what they deserve.

totally agree with what zippy said about wayne from knowing him a little while and also buying his old car from him i know he wouldnt of done anything to deserve what as happened as he keeps himself to himself. As i said on phone last night mate hope you chatch the tw@ts who did this.

I would be crying! I really hope that you get the car sorted out soon

I also hope, for what it's worth, that you've got the local plod involved and they're currently chasing down the scum that did this

That's just plain rude, you need to protect you and yours !

Commendable attitude to the violation, but is it worth the hassle ?

you would be surprised what jealousy can do, yes someone obviously planned to do it but the motive could be plain and simply jealousy.
i have a garage and have had quite a few nice cars, i wouldnt have had them if i didnt have the garage, i woulddnt be able to sleep cos i know for a fact they would be keyed at least. ive even got gates now and cctv, the sad thing it would be the young uns who would do it 8 years olds, theres alot of charity cases round mine who think everything should be free off the government rather than working for it.

good attitude though mate - not worth getting stressed its only you who pays for it but get a bloody garage cos it might happen again

Rapid.
You seem a pretty chilled type of guy, but deep down you must be on fire.
Having your "hands tied" by having a family with young ones can complicate any thoughts of revenge.

Plus I'm sure your aware of the snowball effect that follows the tit for tat battles. No-one wants petrol though their letter box in the dead of night... but some do deserve it....

Good luck with your repairs....

The car is well off it's home turf.

As stated jealousy is no excuse for that.

Jesus! Where do you live for crying out loud?! I really don't know what I'd do in this situation. I know I'd be absolutely livid! You do seem very calm as people keep saying. Is it the calm before the storm? Are some kind of double-hard, SAS, Muhammad 'I'm Ard' Bruce Lee, who's going to pick his moment then strike?! Or isn't imagination getting the better of me?... Not taking the p**s mate, just trying to make light of the situation.
Seriously, hope it gets sorted soon bud, and it doesn't happen again. I admire your attitude.

Sorry to here about your car mate, but your to acting to calm for whats happened to your car, I think youve been up to something and you are not retaliating because thats yous quits now. I am 34 and have 3 wee boys aged 2,8,10 and if some one did this to anything that belonged to me i would do what i done before. Me and ma mate took the scum up the wood and put his hand on a rock and i smashed it with a12lb mallet. His bones popped out the top off his fingers, but hey ho he never tried to steal my boys quad bike again. Get this sorted out mate, dont let them think they can win.

Guys it's hard to pick a "victim" if you don't know who did it....

Somebody will grass someone up, I hope.

Gutting mate, just be really careful hoovering glass off the seats as i had my newage window smashed and the glass got in/on the seat and when the company hoovered it off it f*cked the seat base and back.
The seat had been immaculate until then as its rarely sat in, screwing!
