How can we park a car on the street to stay overnight safely?

My friend went to Birmingham twice to take a short course. He parked his car on the street overnight. The front lights of his car was damaged by strangers twice. Is it because it is a sports car? Could u give him some suggestion to avoid this happen again, please?

Many vandels will attack any car. But sports cars and luxury cars are their prime targets. I drive a Jaguar XJ saloon and there is no way I would leave it parked on a street at night.



Is he stopping in a hotel or B%26amp;B? Is there a nearby car park he could park on? I know on a car park it still would not be 100% safe, but it would reduce the risk. Like another poster said, perhaps a car cover would help if he has to leave it on the street.

I have a classic Mercedes convertible. If parking away from home I fit a car cover to it. Then people can't see what it is and probably just assume it's an old banger with a broken window!



I've never actually had my sports car vandalised, though I did once have my company car badly scratched in a supermarket car park.



Halford's is a good place to go for car covers.
You can't.



If you leave a car parked in the street, especially at night, you will risk some mindless yob vandalising it, unfortunately.



Such is today's society...

It's possible, as people maybe jealous. But many cars get vandalised when left on a street. maybe just a coincidence it has happened both times.
Take public transport.
Park the car somewhere else. or get a bodyguard for the car.
