'The Tyre Extinguishers' have posted details on social media.

Climate activists claim they have let down tyres of SUVs parked in the Didsbury area of south Manchester overnight, leaving notes on vehicles targeted saying: "It's not personal - it's your car."

The M.E.N. reported on the group in March this year, when angry motorists hit out after tyres of SUVs parked on streets around Burton Road in West Didsbury were targeted in a similar manner. One of the vehicles affected was an electric car parked in Beaufort Avenue. One note, apparently left on an SUV in Bacup and posted to Twitter, said: "One of your tyres have been let down. It's not personal. It's your car. Look up Tyre Extinguishers."

It says on its website: "SUVs and 4x4s are a disaster for our health, our public safety and our climate. Bigger and bigger cars are dominating our towns and cities, and all so a privileged few can flaunt their wealth.
