This is why we can't have nice things.

The bastards couldnt steal it so they decided to tip it over. Luckily the bush/tree stopped it going all the way over.
My brother had only been away from it for 5 mins, in a public car park with lots of other cars and people in it.

I completely agree with what you are saying - we can't have nice things. I was in the states a couple of weeks back, and one of the guys there was absolutely gobsmacked when I told him that all of the cars I've ever owned have been keyed (well, except the Bimmer, but thats in such a state that it wouldn't matter if it had been keyed!).

However, I wouldn't necessarily describe a Fiat as a 'nice thing'! Laughing

Still, I think you're talking about theft, which is really a seperate issue to being able to have nice things. If a car gets nicked, you get a new one. If a car is keyed there is nothing you can do. Plus there is something you can generally do about car theft (IE lock the car), whereas you can't stop mindless vandalism.

Not wanting to disrespect your brother's predicament though. Is still a complete bastard of a thing to happen.

Maybe they lost something under the car and were just getting it back?

I dont think this is the right forum for sympathy.

Thanks for posting though, as I do find it funny.

however, fucking bastards who can do that to someone elses property, as funny a picture it makes its still someones car and its still caused damage and could have been a lot worse. Evil or Very Mad

Hellkat, you'd just lure an elephant out with circus peanuts. Any foo kno that.

Guess my sense of humour is an epic fail when it comes to rolled cars. Mine is still off the road because of the last time some knuckle dragging retard found it "funny" to do it.

glad your not looking to rant, as i did laugh Very Happy

Not really being to "up" on my cars, but would that cause any damage to the suspension/chassis? or is it abit too light for that?

Steve.
