Pepper it sounds like your other neighbour's struck out and got 2 nah jokes.

Over the years there has been plenty of noise come out of my place, compressors running on and off allday, my brother and his band practising, reving the #### out of our cars when we knew no better. Only ever had one complaint and that day I tried to limit the noise. Never had anymore complaints. But if they did complain, I would respect their wishes best I could.

Having said all that. I have one neighbour behind me who has just got his first car, a Fiat 131 and he is always reving the #### out of it. Honestly I can handle the noise but the thought of his engine is what annoys me.
You say your neighbour used to do up cars in his driveway and it also sounds like you are always reving your car.
I wonder if he is complaining about the actual noise or like me, its the thought of the poor engine that is annoying him the most.
What are you doing when you are reving your engine? My neighbour is really just reving his while his head is under the bonnet, doing nothing.
I understand trying to clean out a carbie by placing your hand over it and giving the engine a rev or 2. But not much else is gained buy reving the crap out of the poor engine. Engines simply just dont like it.

Not trying to say you in the wrong here mate.
Just curious as to what it is you are doing.
If you simply just in and out the driveway many times a day, I think the guy is just a whinger like you describe.
