In any case the law regarding clamping on private land is far from straightforward and then there is the matter of the cost of wheel clamps.

Re: Allocated car space.
[QUOTE=swimfeeders;1691786]HiLife is not fair, only 3 years out of Enforcement, still involved, still have outstanding cases and now volunteer to help those with problems.
The legal system in this country is most certainly not fair.
Many are denied Legal Aid, but prats like Shamina Begum are given it.
Why should your son get involved?
Because you are his Mum.
When my Mum was alive, she suffered horribly from two sets of neighbours at one point.
She moved into a bungalow in her 80's due to osteoporosis.
She was a very proper lady, but complaints to the Police and Council went unanswered.
We found her crying one day.
Not on, problem solved.
You made my Mum cry, now make me cry scumbag.
That is what sons do, look after Mum.
Even the Pope has said that, insult my mother and expect a punch.
I am not as nice a man as the Pope.[/QUOTE
Firstly,I am very sorry what your mother went through,did you beat these men up?
I ask because,on another post somewhere on the forum,you said you were a "whimp"!.
I have to say,I had problems with a neighbour last year,the police were called,but it did take about a week for them to show up,..what this neighbour did,was captured on cctv,they went and had a word with him,told him to watch his behaviour ,and to have "NO"!! contact with me what so ever,..the neighbour doesn't even look at me any more,bully boy he was!.

We toyed with the idea of epoxy filler in the door locks but with remote control central locking that's an option that wouldn't work. We thought about slashing the tyres but that would have been too obvious. Notes stuck on windscreens just got screwed up and left on the mud and trying to talk had resulted in being abused with references being made to incomers thinking they owned the village. The police had their hands tied because the cars were being left on private land.
We resorted to self help as the last option.
It worked

I will stick with the concrete block for now,see what happens.
I couldn't put spikes down,because I couldn't live with my self,if I caused them to have an accident ,but thanks anyway!.

Re: Allocated car space.
You could always try cable tying a shopping trolley to their door handleNever done it myself but I like the idea.
I used to occasionally get people parking across my driveway so I would just let down their tyres (by unscrewing the valve) but since then I have painted a white line on the road which has completely solved the problem.
Amazing how a simple white line makes such a difference.
Parking across my drive is actually illegal because it is within 10 metres of the dunny lane.

Reading your post I too was intrigued to know what a 'dunny lane' is. A quick search revealed the answer, from that it's well-known that this can be a cause of neighbour disputes, see link below:
