We can guess and speculate, but unless the perpetrators are caught, it will all just be speculation.
What I find strange is why the perpetrator went round two cars and damaged all the tyres, when with less effort he or she could have kept to the pavement side and upset 8 car owners? Strange!

Were the 2 cars that were damaged more expensive or newer cars than the others? It could be someone had a grudge against people having new or expensive model cars. Just a thought as it does seem pretty mindless otherwise.

No. They were normal cars any of us might drive. In fact, one person owns two cars, and the newer car was left untouched. It is very strange.

This thing was happening a while back as some people were running taxi services which takes the Spanish trade. Could be a lot of different things to speculate on. Could be worth seeing if any CTV anywhere.Such a mindless act to do.

The victims do not do that, but it is a good point to make. It’s either mindless, or there is a reason we do not yet know. Nobody else reported on anything happening that night or since, which hopefully is positive.

Just to throw it out there too, the people who've been targeted haven't upset anyone? Only a friend of mine had all 4 of hers done a couple years ago, she was very new to the area but upset a company, hers was the only car done & it was outside her property on a private sided road (Just off Calle Sorolla) We have our suspicions that it was them as she hadn't met anyone else in Spain yet :?: :!: :|

Yes all possibilities. The people targeted do a lot for the Residentia, so who knows? Whatever it is, I hope it is isolated and we now have surveillance. Hopefully, nobody else in the area has suffered, and the main purpose of my original post was to ask others to be vigilant.
It is a shame because crime here seems very low compared to where we live in the UK.

This sounds personal to me. Someone taking revenge for something. Have either of your neighbors had a recent conflict with somebody who knows where they live. Damaging two cars suggests that the perpetrator was either not sure which car it was or damaged two cars to cause confusion as to the motive.

.....hmm, justification for “must be British”?

Stupid statement.
