Looks like some idiots will get what they deserve

[Irf]

Found this on Pistonheads. Basically some drunks tried trashing an Elise and it looks like people know who they are. Will be interesting to see what happens

does this car belong to anyone here¬!?

[WW_VRS]

Hope they get what's coming to them...

Dead link for me - moderated I guess.

The original has been removed but it can still be found.

YouTube - Lotus Elise Trashed

Amazing how quick these things get round forums.

Had a look at this earlier. The guys on pistonheads had dug up photos of the guys responsible, and also details of where they work. The word vigilante springs to mind.

Personally, I hope they get what's coming to them, but if the police do catch up with them all the internet coverage may impede a prosecution?

Aw T1TS! it's been taken down.

*Does a Wardy and heads off in the direction of Google*

[Fezboy]

Someone has posted 3 names on YouTube :eek:

If it is them I think they are all going to phone in sick for work tomorrow

Link to the cached Google copy of the PH thread, here

It's perhaps not complete, depends on when Google noticed the thread existed. But gives you something at least.

Got this: Clicky but the info is sketchy.

It's being taken down left, right and centre :thumbdwn:

The YouTube link is no good now either

[Irf]

I think for the protection for Pistonheads they had to remove it as they could face legal issues. But for those who saw it, it was well worth a read.

[sharkrider]

so what was the basic story? (no details required)

[Irf]

Basically some people on PH forum found a video of three guys jumping all over a Lotus Elise in London. People did some reseach on Myspace etc and found the three guys had done the same to other cars too. By digging a bit further they had found their places of work, addresses etc. Apparently it's been reported to the Police so hopefully they'll deal with it.

[Hannibal]

Basic story is 2 complete ***** decided to jump up and down on an Elise for a bit of a laugh, whilst their equally moronic mate decided to video it.

They posted it on their own myspace account which has of course lead to their identities being revealed. At least one Pistonheads member has reported this to the police, but the tone of the PH thread was becoming increasingly "heated" as to what could be done.....

There may be more to tell, but that's all I saw.

[ScoobyChris]

I wonder if the video of them being "talked to" will make it onto Youtube/Myspace too?

[SteVRs]

I really wouldn't be sorry if someone kicked them all to death. No great loss.

Here is a youtube link that is still working for me....

There is also a facebook group which some of the PH lot set up after the original thread was taken down - Facebook | Login

[walrus2106]

If you might know the miscreants there have a look here

clicky

[octav.ed]

hopefully someone trashes their cars... see how they feel then...

[Nick H]

Oh what fun,lets jump all over someones property and fall about laughing.

Idiots such as these need eradicating,and fast.

Pass the Zyklon B....

[lordrobs]

I originally saw this on the OCUK motors forum.

Bunch of complete morons. Unfortunately as you can see from the other video's on "Danny's" profile it wasn't a one off act of stupidity

[cheezemonkhai]

Maybe "Danny" needs a one of act of attitude readjustment then?
