So came home today to find this stuck to the windscreen of my charade. Its been parked out the front of my house for a couple weeks since I bought my corolla and theyre trying to tell me its been abandoned. I called them up trying to explain the situation and the rude woman wouldnt have a bar of it. I dont see how they can say parking a car outside youre own house for more than 48hrs can be called "abandoning" it. Now the car is unregistered and I realize its in offence to have an unregod car on the street (like the notice says) but Im unclear as to whether the fine is only attached to the abandonment part of the notice as it appears to be by the way its written. If so I think its worth challenging.

Thoughts?

It dosen't look like a fine to me. Its giving you notice to move it. Its just stating that it is an offence to abandon a vehicle so if you haven't abandoned it I would just move the Dawoo (I mean Charade) They are obvious council workers. Cant read or write but can can serve a notice

Did you also get an expiation with that.

That Charade was a good little car pity no one wants it anymore :(

nah thats all there was. so maybe it means that if they impounded it then i would be issued the fine? if so then thats ok.

and dont worry brad, matty sherlock's gonna keep it in the sau family haha

Its not a fine. Once they impound the car, you'd have to pay a holding fee, removal fees etc to retrieve it. That and they'd see it as abandoned if its not rego'd

They probably got the shits on cos they can polish the gutters LOL

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
