Broken Wing Mirror

Not content with running their keys down the side of my Freelander some chav scum has decided to rip the passenger wing mirror of its mounting. It's still connected to the wires, etc so the electic motor works. I'm not sure if it can be repaired so how much would a replacement wing mirror cost?

Censored chavs

Might be worthwhile setting up some CCTV if possible, a disco3 member used a webcam and recorded his neighbour scratching his car in broad daylight

Worthwhile thinking if you have any disgruntled/jealous neighbours Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

They should be strung up, even if the police miraculously catch the scum they will get a caution or a fixed penalty of £80 or something else that won't bother the little Censored in anyway whatsoever Twisted Evil

Crikey Junior you have stiff punishment in your area, here they don't even bother with the fixed penalty just give them a conditional discharge and say see you in two weeks. Evil or Very Mad

I posted a reply to something similar a while ago, worth repeating.

Conversation with local Doctor who brought his car in to garage vandalised.

Me) they should cut the hand off them as they do in some countries

Doc) I would also perform another small op to prevent any follow up generation of the b------s

Have you ever watched one of those fly on the wall cop shows?
A full hour of cops arresting drug dealers, violent thugs, drunken louts etc. Then at the end when they tell you what course of action be-felled the said nutters, They either get a caution or NO further action was taken, The only ones that get taken to court are the motorists.

This might be an option for you - can't see it being difficult to fit.

Do you have the option to borrow an MP5 as I am sure that would solve the issue Thumbs Up
