Ripoff tow driver joyrides my car and ruins motor and transmission

I drove my Jensen Healey to a Resturant to meet friends for a surprise birthday party. There was no parking spaces available so I circled and ended up parking in a hotel lot across the street. I saw no signs warning of a tow zone.

Later when we returned to the lot, our car was gone. I went to the front desk of the hotel and asked where my car was. The security man gave me a printed paper off a pad with the tow company phone number. I called and was told I owed them $192.50. And had to make an appointment to get my car back. After many hours of waiting at the business address, the tow driver showed and took my payment.

When I got to my car I noticed the radiator was leaking and my seat belt was adjusted to twice my size. I told him it wasn't leaking last night and he said, "Do you want it the hard way or the easy way. You better take your car now, there's a station five blocks down the road with water".

I started the car and it didn't sound or feel right. I got it down the road and the transmission was grinding, the motor had no power, and the rear end was noisey. I had to stop at every station on the way home to refill it with water. I also noticed the odometer had an extra 30 miles on it, and then realized they were out joyriding in my car and trashed it.

I called them and told them about it, and they of course denide any responsibility. I am now stuck with over $2,000.00 worth of repairs. Also I believe the hotel is getting a kick-back for every tow.
