and I need help from you fellow FF'ers with what it could have been about!
I was at my sisters house for a couple of hours, parked where I usually park outside her house (no double yellows, no parking restrictions etc). When I got home, my dad told me that a couple of plain clothed officers had been to the door and asked me if he owned a black Fiat Bravo. He said no, and that I did. They asked him if he knew where it was parked, and he said that it'll be at his other daughters house. They said fair enough and that they just wanted to make sure he knew that it was parked there.
Why would they have done this? My dad reckons 'cause I've painted the wheel trims that it's "an attraction" and looks like a boy racers car (despite this being the only feature which makes it look different), which would make them think it was up to no good despite being stationary. My sister reckons a neighbour might have reported it, but I can't see why as cars park in the same spot there every day, and it doesn't cause any obstruction to other road users.
I don't even know if I can call them and ask them why it had been reported, or why they had took notice of it. Anyone care to guess/anyone know if I can ring them and they'll tell me?
