    Parking on Common Property is a no-no.  Don't go there.  But your neighbour is treating you unfairly.  Now, stand back while our legal friends tearmy opinion to pieces but shouldn't you just hit your neighbour with a bill for the damage since you know that your car was damaged by someone who was there as her “guest” or contractor.  Perhaps explaining to her that it's her responsibility and if she won't give up the oven guy, then she has to pay, might make her a little more forthcoming with his name. 

     

    That said, don't go in with all guns blazing – promise you won't park on Common Property (whch you shouldn't anyway) if she does the right thing regarding the damage to your car.  Let Peace break out or you face years of sniping and nastiness.  As Churchill said, “Jaw-jaw is better than war-war …”
