Attack of the chavs.

Post by SeanConnor » Mon Dec 04, 2017 8:14 pm

Usually it's nice and quiet where I live .... until about three weeks ago. I heard a roar like a Saturn Five and watched a black 2ltr Z4 roar out of the estate followed by a chavved up Scooby. The must have hit 50 past a blind crossing point. Hmmm I thought what an arse , not doing Z4 drivers' reputation much good. I didn't think anymore of it until I found it parked just down the road from me. When I say 'parked' I mean up on axle stands and a trolley jack , with the handle of the jack sticking out to the side and reaching the centre of the road . He's covered the handle of the jack with part of an old high vis vest. The other half he has thrown into a back garden. It's @@@@ing dangerous ! An old boy swerved violently to avoid it and clipped the curb Since then Chavvy Boy has decided to drop the clutch assembly out and throw all the old bits plus socket heads and under-tray into the road as well as carboard parts boxes from Eurocarparts. His mates (plus
Waynetta ) park the Scooby at night (to light it up ) as he and his mates crawl under the car complete with lit ciggies. I passed them the other day on the way to my car and looked over to be greeted with a 'f@@k off' from Wayne. The car scraped through its MOT last year with a list of advisories as long as your arm. It is taxed and has an MOT although Wayne appears to think that insurance is an optional extra ( NID). The council are not interested and failed even to register a complaint. A quiet word is not an option as I will probably lose my teeth and/or have a wheel brace thown at my parked Zed. Advice please ? :(

If it’s not insured & still on the road the police should be informed instead of the council I would have thought?
Sounds like a nasty piece of work :x

If it's on the highway it's a police matter.

Yup squashing the cnut would be a major result . The car needs to be seen to be believed . Every wheel curbed even the O/S ones and a camber angle that belongs in The Wacky Races. Filthy dirty , re-sprayed poorly from red to black . A complete pile of shite. I don't think that the police would be keen on me reporting this as there is only one real station left in Swindon ( FFS ) and they are probably run off their feet with more serious matters. BTW for any burglers in Swindon pick Tuesday , Thursday or the weekend to break in as the nearest police station to West Swindon is only open three days a week from 10:00 am to 2::00pm (Wooton Bassett). Not their fault as like anything else in this country related to public services they are starved of funds.

Don’t worry about the police being concerned or not, uninsured cars are a serious matter! :x
Is it actually on the road or is it parked off road?

I do hope he isn't a member of the forum haha

Just go and have a word with him he may surprise you and be a genuinely nice guy, if it doesn't go well then at least you know you tried.

On the road taking up most of the RH lane when you include the jack handle.

He needs reporting before there’s an accident and he won’t pay for repairs :evil:

Even if the heap was insured it sounds like it's causing an obstruction in the highway. That coupled to its lack of insurance will probably get a police response. Even in this day and age, they still like quick easy wins and hate chavs!

I am planning on getting an old Land Rover or Pick up eventually and driving it into Chav mobiles when the time suits me.

There are a couple of little twats on my estate that think nothing of chucking boxes of KFC in the middle of the road when they are finished with them. Young lads with surprisingly valuable cars. Shame if they got damaged...!! :evil:

Err your faith in Human Kind is refreshing :D but if you read the original post then this is not an option. If you get told to feck off for just looking over then we are not dealing with ' a nice guy' . I'm a Scouser who grew up in the 70s . I learned at an early age to pick my battles or get the shite kicked out of me. A polite conversation about his behaviour and that of his friends is not going to happen. Would a nice guy leave all kinds of s**t in the street ? Throw stuff into other peoples gardens ?
Leave a car for two weeks partly stripped on the highway ? I doubt very much that he is s member
of the forum. He can hardly speak never mind type. His favourite words seem to be f@@k , cnut , and Bas@@@d , Preferably all in one short phrase.

Take him out to nice dinner every night and treat yourselves to a lovely bottle of red wine. In 50 years he may or may not be ravaged by cancer, according to The Mail, and you’re older so you’ll be dead anyway.
