It isn't fair for this young guy for sure he feels singled out by the hole thing but takeing the ballanced view as I think he is doing is the best way, you have to see both sides in this life cause if you come down on one side only your going to lock horns all the f****** time. Yes it is his right to own and keep as many vehicles a he wants and it is his neighbours or town councils right to look out of there windows at a clean and tidy neighbourhood. and yes our forefathers fought for our freedoms both sides of the pond but the people who decide how free we ultimatley are are our governments and if they say your not free to do a thing then you aren't, end of. It's just the well worn story of the little guy against the powers that be, if you have enough money and time and your sure of a win then fight it but 99% of the time we have do what they say and bite the bullet. But it is still strange that if this town is the giant car park that it has been painted as to why they should be on his case well the answer may be simple enough that the council had decided to clean up dodge and this young guy was to be the example.

Good luck mate...it's even worse in the nanny state U.K

Small town living---Ain't it a hoot. Go from an outcast to a relative in one easy step.

Congrats! I feel for you. I've heard so many of these stories. Lucky yours ended with a happy ending. I am 19 too but I only own two vehicles. I would love to own nine cars expecially the beautiful cars you own, but my own enforcer (my mother) makes sure I won't clutter the yard. All together my family and I own 6 cars and trucks. My dad and I keep looking for more. I'm glad everything worked out for you.
