Just arrived home from work and there is a 62 plate white M5 on MY driveway. I park behind it...walk around it seething...(it's huge!). I open my door and there is an envelope with its keys thrown through my letter box plus a note saying "Hey Anthony, I hope you don't mind, I didn't get the chance to go to the council to apply for my parking permit, but I'm off to Lisbon to watch Celtic will be back on Saturday. Can you go to the council and get a permit for me. All documents in the boot...don't thrash my car! Your loving neighbour, Danny." What do I do guys?!
No longer the fastest car on our street!

You have his permission...
I've just texted him to say I'm taking it to work tomorrow. He texted me back to say I must make sure my clients do not eat anything inside the car (im an estate agent in case you didnt know) and if I could pick him up at the airport late on Saturday! What a cheeky monkey!!!

Go to the airport with a neckbrace and a 1.1 Corsa with XYZ Coachworks Courtesy Car sticker on the door. Tell him it wasn't your fault but does he have whiplash insurance?

Get some green gaffa tape and put green stripes on it.
I had not a too disimaler thing happen a few years back, my 55 was at local MB for service, got home late afternoon wondering why my car was not back, entered house, played answer phone, 'Sussex Police here, could you call us please to explain why your car is parked at X address' etc etc, Mb had to go and collect it. No doubt very embrassing for them.
A few years previous to that incident, I had ordered 20 ton of sand for building works at my house, never turned up when surposed too, called builders merchants, wheres my sand, 'we delivered it this morning' came their reply, well I hav'nt got it said I, turned out they had tipped the whole lot onto the road at the same address as the above incident, and this was before the bagged deliveries we have now, they had to send the lorry back and shovel it all back on. I do recall the lady of the house being quite upset at the time.
We have a close matching address, but 10 miles apart of each other.

+1 for this, the look on his face would be priceless.
Of course you can thrash the car, he only said don't trash it didn't he!

Take one of the turbos out and put it in the CLK, he won't notice much, just say you've accidently put normal petrol in it instead of super, BMW drivers will believe that, lol.
