Sajad, who was jailed for nearly three years over a con that saw him sell "deathtrap" vehicles, made his neighbour's lives a "living nightmare", Birmingham Crown Court heard.
Now, speaking anonymously to Birmingham Live, they have revealed what made him such a nightmare.
One local said: "We always had a quiet, lovely and friendly neighbourhood but it was trashed so quickly.
"Cars were parked everywhere. Neighbours lost their driveways. We found out people's drives and houses were being used as backgrounds to sell cars in adverts.

"The attitude was one of 'I don't care about anyone or anything, I'm going to make life a misery'."
They claimed that "everyone" in the area wanted to sell up and move out but Sajad blocking their driveways with his dodgy vehicles meant they couldn't find buyers, while others were "driven away".
The crook admitted conspiracy to defraud and sent down, as well as being slapped with a Criminal Behaviour Order, restricting his ability to sell cars for a decade.
His scheme, which is expected to have been run with the help of others, reportedly scammed customers out of £58,000.
