A retired dentist whose bright yellow car was written off by vandals for damaging a picture postcard village view has bought a grey motor to avoid being targeted again.

Peter Maddox's beloved three-year-old Vauxhall Corsa was written off when it sustained £6,000 worth of damage after someone scratched "MOVE" into the bonnet.

Some of the windows of the banana-coloured car were also smashed in last month following a row that erupted in 2015.

It centred on complaints from photographers and tourists, who moaned it was "photobombing" their photos of picturesque Arlington Row in Bibury, Glos - where homes date back to the 14th Century.
