Default Just watched THE BEST EVER gutted Wheel clamper



Just sat waiting for my Missus to come out of a shop and i saw this wheel clamp van pull up. He was checking the carpark opposite and must of found that a BMW X5 didnt have a ticket.

He walks to his van and pulls out a wheel clamp.

Walks over to the X5 and begins to TRY and put the clamp on.

This is the best bit

The X5 had some FUCKING HUGE 22" bling rims on it

The clamper guy was trying like fuck to fit this clamp when the guy whos BMW it was turned up.

I wound the window down to here this

X5 guy-"If that clamp has marked my wheels then i will be taking it out on your face pal"

The guy looked round his car, made sure they were ok. Then jumped in the car and drove off..........leaving the clamper guy still kneeled down on the floor.

I stook my thumb up to the guy as he left and he smiled and waved

So the moral of the story is to get 20" plus rims so the fookers cant clamp you

They are getting worse, i have used my local blaocbuster for the past 3 years and you have never had to pay and display.

I parked the car and walked round the corner to blockbuster, dropped a DVD off and picked one up, i was away for the car for a total of 12 MINUTES and when i returned there was a ticket for Ł40

Not long ago someone I know, and a mate of his, both stopped their cars outside a bar and popped in for 2 mins, came out - 2 fucking clamps on each car! Luckily he ran a plant hire firm, so he got a lift back to his place, came back with a petrol angle grinder, fired it up, damn thing packed up! Went back to his place, got another angle grinder, set about the clamps...

By this time people from the bar were on the street outside clapping, the gimps from the clamping firm were present and making endless empty threats and general whining, all 4 clamps cut off, threw them in the Albert Dock (this was on the road past the dock in Liverpool), drove off to copious applause. Posted a letter through the door of the clamping company offering to pay for replacement clamps. Went to the police station and reported what he had done to the clamps, and that he was happy to pay for the clamps and had informed the clamping company of this, thus avoiding prosecution I believe, and as far as I know has heard nothing since.
