lol. The nasty neighbours with the heading for juvenile delinquency son and the irritating parking habits - well, the exhaust has fallen off the son's extremely crap souped up old Escort. That's what you get when you bump up and down kerbs at high speeds ;-)
Of course, now it'll probably sit taking up a parking space for the next year. His last knackered Escort is still in the parking places with a flat tyre. The funniest thing is that he was doing a mechanic's apprenticeship, but he's crap at fixing his own cars :)

If he doesn't notice (or doesn't care) the first couple of times, get some rubber tubing and squirt oil up his exhaust. Hint: the effect is delayed until the exhaust heats up, but make sure you don't have the washing out, in case he chooses that day to impress the street by sitting around and revving his engine.
