Hello,

Dan here I live on Hindmans Road.

I've been speaking to neighbours who have picked up some of the pieces from what appears to be an attempted theft of my car around 2pm on Monday.

The driver side window is smashed and the panels around the ignition put out of place and scratched.

Some have suggested it's by the same guy who has apparently tried to get into cars on other nearby roads.

If anyone has more information on this please let me know - the description has been a white male 'kid' in balaclava.

Thanks for all the help so far - I only got this car home last week so a very unfortunate incident.

Dan

P.S. If any particularly good value garages around please let me know - I have pretty much spent it all on buying the car in the first place

Very sorry to hear this.

Have you reported it to the police, particularly if there have been other similar incidents near you?

I don't know what is "good value", but the people at Dell Autos in Hansler Road (off Lordship Lane) are  reliable and helpful.

Yes reported to police - case already 'closed' though..

In the end I'm fixing via insurance which will affect price down the line but simplest way to get it taken away and fixed.

I've got hold of some video of same kid trying a car on Underhill Road - white, slight build, Arsenal windbreaker, balaclava. Local policing team have been made aware so we shall see..

    • Talking about another local authority planning officers, they were very helpful for both those wanting to extend, and those possibly objecting, in years gone by.  Often their is a compromise that both parties will be reasonably happy with and/or will more likely get approved.  Back to the value of getting on with those who may be affected.  I'm not sure how well resourced Southwark are, and whether they will actually come out as they may have done in the past.  I expect that numbers of planning officers have been cut over recent years as local authorities tighten their belts. I used to be active in objections to developments, starting with the plans for the multiplex at the old Crystal Palace, which the developer pulled out of in 2001.  I consider a lot of residential developments are ugly, not improving the streetscape, and sometimes too damn large.  I've long since stopped getting bothered, in any case regulations are far more liberal nowadays.  I only object every few years or so, with the hope that it is considered at planning committee.  I'm sure that your plans don't lead to any of the above issues,  but I don't know where you live and rest assured I wont be getting involved! There's a story for the pub another time, it involved a local website (not this one) and got very acrimonious.  South London Press get involved, and the police.  The internet never forgets.  Not sharing any other information but I'll say a bit more via PM/DM if anyone is intrigued.  Have to be careful!
