Sorry to see this Ray
My Brother was repeatedly targeted by local teenagers after he had words about anti social behavior front of his house - they smashed his windscreen etc but the police said they couldn't do anything without evidence even though everyone knew who it was
He fitted a cctv camera and first weekend away the scumbags were filmed and recorded through microphone shouting abuse then ripping it down - copy given to police soon got action and ended the problem
I have Thinkware dual dashcam on time lapse (better than movement detection IMHO) and recommend this and/or cctv - in my experience if its a vendetta they will be back if they think they can get away with it
Hope you get sorted - you've saved a lot of us from spare wheel thefts and don't deserve this Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Sympathies.
A while back, someone broke into the car, nicked some tools that my long dead father had made and egged the car. It upset me, particularly the tools. I identified the person 99.9%, but the Police wernt interested, just had to shrug my shoulders and get on with it. Was tempted to dispense rough justice, but I suspect the Police would have been interested in that one!

There are some absolute in the world and unfortunately your life's been touched by one. Darwin would be upset to see his theory of evolution proven wrong.... scum like this need removing from the gene pool.
At least your neighbours have demonstrated that humanity and compassion is still alive. Sorry not closer or would have lent some elbow greaseSill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders
