Some Polski's ( ) have left their runabout parked outside my front window. Problem is it hasnt moved in at least 3 weeks, probly more. I havent seen them (or heard them, as they are quite loud) for the same amount of time. Its got cobwebs all over it and bird shit everywhere.

Can I get someone to shift it / crush it or is it too early?

if it is certainly dumped I think you can have the council remove it. Remember several being removed by council when I lived on the darling council estate lol

LOL Danny, its not on a slope and its right outside my house, literally a foot from the front window so I dont think arson'ing its the answer

The tax runs out on the 31st. If it isnt retaxed it will be being reported on the 1st, haha

not sure about this but i thought there were other rules apart from road tax when parking at the roadside; is it up on the pavement? are there any road markings to say dont park there? is it facing the right direction for the side of the road it is parked on?

We all park half on path half not Carl, otherwise not everyone can park down there / cant get through to turn around (no through road so people come down by mistake). No road markings and not facing the right way, but then as before no one really adheres to that either

There's alink on the DVLA website that you can enter a reg and it brings up all the details for the car.

Can't remember it though.
