    I remember when I was younger and the things that I found to be fun. I never went so far as to damage someones property.

    I woke up this morning to this. Instead of getting to watch the F1 race, I got to wait for the police and wash my car.

    I don't understand how this could be fun. Sure, Ii wrapped my fair share of homes and egged a few, but they were friends of mine. Part of the fun was in knowing that the friend would have to clean the mess up.

    I don't understand how doing this would be fun.

    You left a six-figure car out in the driveway over night? As for the kids, lack a respect for property (and I got a feeling the parenting skills may be to blame).

    My garage is full and my wife is driving the Aston Martin as an everyday car while her Maserati is at the dealership. I live on a very secluded street, the only kids that would be wondering around live in the neighborhood.

    Let the neighborhood kids know you will give a $500 reward for the name of the soon to be deceased.

    Get the egg off quick before it ruins the paint!

    Oh, and I have an extra garage slot if you need it. :)

    Maybe you need a bigger garage? :) (sorry, trying to lighten the mood).

    Would maybe a car cover work if you can't park it inside? Looking from the pics, looks like you have a pocket of outside space between the garage and the end of the house. Could it park in that space? Looks like it would hide it somewhat. Or maybe a fence that blocks off the driveway and the area around it.

    Wow.....egging an Aston is pretty low, I mean...how could they NOTshow respect for such a car. I gotta say though....how can you leave that out overnight?

    I am not going to say something like "serves you right" but I will say that you have had to learn something here; not everyone loves the car like you, it boils down to them being jealous of your possesion and thinking that egging your car will prove something other than them being 100% jackasses.

    I think the reward thing is a good idea...but make sure that beauty is inside from now on.

    Carbon,

    Only because you have helped me so much in the last few weeks with my stupid requests, here is the reason the aston was outside. Although some of the "inside" cars aren't as valuable, they are more likely to rust if they are outside in the humidity and moisture. I don't like leaving any car outside, but at times, you do what you have to do. Besides, my wife is driving this car everyday. It is actually a DB7 Vantage and not a Vanquish. It can live outside without a problem, but the others can't.

    LOL...! P0\/\/l\l3D...!!!

    That's awesome...! i really don't see a problem with leaving a car outside - other than the obvious, in your first pictures - i was just trying to lighten the mood... Kids can be pretty foul; Uro's idea seems to be the best... i doubt the police will "investigate"...

    There is nothing wrong with leaving a daily driver outside IMO. It is outside when you are at work ect the 8 hours it is in a garage isn't doing the car any good unless the weather is bad. Sun is worse on the paint then the moon. But I can relate to what happend. About 3 weeks ago at the Jersey shore my CLK got egged. It actually damaged the clear where the egg hit it must have been thrown FAST. I got it fixed, but why would someone do this? Sorry to hear it man, and get it off egg will eat through your paint.

    Do you know how long I've waited for an opportunity to post those words?

    Years. 2+ years, anyway.

    Looking at your garage, I'd have to say that's a pretty good reason to leave a "rental" car outside.

    Sheesh.

    You know if I was a kid and I just hated some guys guts, I mean really hated his guts, I might damage his house or his mailbox or poison his flowergarden, but to harm an exotic car???!!!! My worst enemy wouldn't get a work of art damaged.

    What kind of non-gear-head kid would do that??

    I'm glad to see you have your priorities straight. I would hate to see one of the classics get egged.

    Whoa!!! Wait a minute!!!! When you did it, it was funny. But, now that it's been done to you, it's not funny? It's just malicious? You "never went so far as to damage someone's property", but you "egged a few"? I'm glad your friends' parents were laughing while they were wiping the egg off their houses. But, I would hate to see how you treat your enemies.

    How many cliches can we get out of this one?

    Do unto others as you would have done unto you? (not so much a cliche as a rule)
    What goes around comes around?
    If you can't take it, don't dish it out?
    It's not so funny now that the shoe is on the other foot?

    You want to know why they did it? Go look in the mirror and ask yourself why YOU DID IT. Same reason - The game hasn't changed, just the players (and the target).

    Not doubting the workload of the kangaroo keeping position (aren't kangaroos pretty fiery at times?). Just never realize it was that lucrative.

    I think I understand what he is talking about.
    I have never egged a house or car, but my friends and I did toilet paper a couple of other friends homes and then we would help them clean it up the next morning. No harm done at all.
