Trailer Tent on drive

[TinklyLittleLaugh]

We live on a newish estate, freehold property but unadopted road so we have a management company for the maintenance etc. There is a covenant forbidding caravans, trailers, boats and white vans on drives.

Anyway, our drive is at 90 degrees to our neighbours opposite (we have no neighbours at either side) and behind the hedge, totally hidden from view, we keep our trailer tent.

Unfortunately we have had run ins with our neighbour regarding our children playing out in the cul de sac (basically he sent the community police to our door who soon realised he was an idiot). He is now a director of the management company in charge of our estate and we are getting letters from them telling us to move our trailer.

Ok. We are breaking the covenant, but it is jobs worth nitpicking to the extreme. We are not inconveniencing anyone or spoiling anyone's outlook.

So basically, what can they do if we ignore the letters. What will happen if we go to court? DH reckons we can take it to the brink of court and then shove the trailer in the garage at the last minute for a couple of weeks until everything dies down, then put it back on the drive again. Yes I know this is a bit evil but frother neighbour has been absolutely vile and abusive to my children. If I can wind him up I will.

Unfortunately these daft rules can be enforced one of the biggest reasons I wouldn't buy a new build eventually I think they will make you move it somewhere else

Well after 9 years I'd be arguing they have waived the right to pursue the breach. Worth checking out whether a limitation period applies...
