hotrs2000 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 Just checked Google Street view and it shows my car and the garage I keep it in , I have asked for the image to be removed as I do not wish the cars location to be known. I was working on the car when the image was taking. Might be worth checking this and where you keep your cars. To have an image removed or altered you click on the "report a concern" wording in the bottom left of the image and follow the instructions. Also be careful when buying off ebay as if its a crim selling items to find the location of our cars they will get your postcode so they can send you the parts and just type that into street view and check out the area. Try and get ebay parts sent to another address, IE work address or a very good friends house.
bortaf Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 I heard on the radio today that google had loads of complaints and have removed quite a few, i tried it but couldn't get any UK streets to come up? is it a web program or a downloaded one you need to use?

Go to Google Maps and you will see a map of the UK and to the side is a little orange man, left click on him and drag him over to the UK map to the area you want then its a case of finding your area or in the search box type the town, street or postcode. No web program or download.
stevepeanut Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 just reported the image on my house, both my our cars are in view, and the reg plate is clear on one of them
mk1mexico Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 Cant get it any closer than Liverpool to where we are(90 miles from Liverpool), the orange man wont go there Only a matter of time tho i guess.
FredTransit Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 I have already filled out the online form to have my house and vans removed. if I don't here in a week or they are still there, I will send them an invoice as I have already made it clear they are action vehicles and are used in the media, I think they might notice then! I would far rather they just take them off though.
Fishtailparka Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 None anywhere near me, and probably never will be. I had a look at some places i know, and I can understand people not liking it. It's a bit intrusive isn't it?
bortaf Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 Got it working now went to me mates house and managed to read the number plate of her brothers car in the garage in the back garden over a 5Ft fence as well, all the other cars have the plates blocked out. Mines there as well, must have been last summer judging by the bits on it
