    How did they get through your eight foot high electrically operated gates and all the way down your 1/4 mile long private drive way to your parking area without being picked up by CCTV?

    Oh I see, you are poor. Tough then.

        According to google the wilderness crew are some white boy rappers from canada, so you're unlikely to get beaten up even if you dismantle it with an angle grinder.

        Have you spoken to your landlord? Have you checked if it's been reported stolen?
        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          Have you super glued the windscreen wipers to the screen or pushed a potatoe far up the car's exhaust pipe?

              Stick a sticker on the windscreen saying For Sale, £2000 and it will be nicked in a jiffy...

                Pry the window open and spray a load of cavity wall filler inside?

                  what would happen if the car rolled out of the bay onto double yellow lines on its own during the night?

                  I believe there is a balaclava clad superhero is at work in your area.
                  good option, but having already reported to Police..

                    Police confirmed its of 'no interest' to them - So I believe all paper works are alright.

                      I used to have the same when I lived in Oxford, and it's a complete PITA. But there's nothing much you can do. If you're going to clamp, you need to have warning signs up first. You could probably sue them for any damages - i.e. if you get a parking ticket parking on the road as a result. But any attempt to disable or damage their car, even though it may be morally just, is likely to backfire and cost you/get you convicted for criminal damage.
                      ..also they could damage my cars .
