Depend on the type of clamp. If its a carppy one with an exposed lock, a hacksaw, or strong bolt cutters for exposed chain type. Otherwise the angle grinder will do. Dome remove their wheel and sometimes need to undo the droplinks or wish bone depending on how its been clamped.

Don't damage the clamp, you can and will be charged for criminal damage.

Wheel off, drop the ball joint and slide out the chain off the wishbone.

Ah that kinda works way above my pay grade :-( haven't a clue mechanically how to do that. Will see if someone back home can come up. Will I still have to pay the fine if I remove the clamp without damaging it?? Cheers by the way

Well they have to prove you caused the criminal damage. There are so many random people out there kindly removing clamps from peoples cars. Wasn't there a guy going around with an angle grinder a couple of years ago? Have a good alibi and you'll be grand. The charge is from a private company. Let them try.

No you won't have to pay the fine, because it isn't a fine. Cut the thing off and take it with you. You won't hear anything about it.

Clamped

Hey guys,

My girlfriend only rents an apartment in the complex where the car was clamped. I was parked in the visitor spot. No signs stating there is a time limit or anything and NCPS or whatever they are called come along and clamp me 10 minutes before I tried to leave.

I called them and they claim that the management company requested the clamp be placed however when I contacted the management 24 hour emergency line they stated that as they were not there over the weekend they could not have made the request.

The security company state that they do not have to give me a reason for clamping and will not remove it without payment. I am waiting for the management company to call me back today to see if it will be removed. My GF is as annoyed as I am but had no control over the idiot that clamped me.

It's crazy when you cant even visit your GF without getting clamped.
