Thanks everyone. The thing is, there has NEVER been any crime to speak of around here in 32 years of living here. Then in the space of three months or so the lawnmower went, the first scoob went and now this. It's like we've been transported to Toxteth or somewhere overnight and we're utterly unprepared for it! How do you change a lifetime's habits overnight? If I hadn't been so slack tonight it would have been another night, wouldn't it? I had stuff to fetch in so I couldn't put my keys straight in my pocket. I dropped the keys on the kitchen surface and got straight on with the tea. Soon after that, the lad who's playing bass for Little Frank's gig on Saturday night turned up to rehearse so it went out of my head to find the keys and make them safe. It feels like a vendetta - they have no scruples whatsoever.

I'm shocked.

While there are some bell-ends on here, I'd guess that it's more likely that the low-life that stole your old Scooby have come back when they thought it would be replaced.

Sincere thoughts.

I know the Vendetta feeling.

Live in areasonable area in Birmingham, within about a 12 month period had my Rangey done over (own fault left stereo face on). House burgled day after I got the scoob!!! Then had my bike nicked ou the shed.

Previous to living in brum I lived in the middle of outer nowhere so did what I pleased, left doors unlocked, cars outside etc!! Now I know every ****** has an angle and if you have something thats nice they will try and take it!! Just got to make it and enjoyable (sick I know) challenge to them all!!

don't loose heart dude, find yourself some secure parking away from home, buy yourself a dogger to daily drive and get another scoob as your weekend treat. If I lived closer I'd be round to help you sort your security (I know what a violation it feels) but its just a case of **** em, **** em all!!

Bubba, with the amount of crap you've been dealing with over recent months with break-ins, stolen cars and lawn-mower-nappings (the latter should be a hanging offence). I have to ask:

Has a young offender's rehab home opened near you or has a current home suddenly had a chnage of use? These places can crop up out the blue, as sometimes they are used for other purposes such as keeping pervs or safe houses etc. But it may have been changed to accomodate other offenders on a rehab program.

I only say this as our works has been a spate of no less that 5 breaks in a space of several months which came up out the blue. Funny, it seemed that others in the immediate area suffered the same. Funny also that such a home was commisioned to care for these youths. And everytime they get a new batch the local crime figures jump up.

Problem is, the police know, and still do nothing!

Job for Dai, I suspect

Bit unluckythere mate. Probably the same person doing the theft, repeat burglary is quite high. TBH though, there should be no keys left lying around. The keys to my car are with me all the time and are not left anywhere.

sad to hear this, mate.

its gota be the same person/people who stole everything else. like my neighbour's YAM R1 was stolen out of locked garage, the theives were back a couple months later for the insurance claim! only to find out they owners have moved.

so the thieves must of known you claimed insurance and a new scooby on the drive. THEY'LL be back for your 3rd!

Sorry to read this has happened again Bubba... Its always been the burgulars trend to re-visit where they have robbed from... now the car thieves doing the same.. . Was your other scoob recovered?
Cameras are a good method of deterant if they are made visable to the thief.. A cheaper option is to buy a door open/close alarm...
I know its a pain when we cant leave our doors unlocked, even when we are at home, all you can do, is the obvious things, fit yale locks, keys out of site etc etc, My insurance co, insisted i had a tracker fitted... next it will be, steel house doors, turn our homes into fort knox etc etc, just to own a subaru...! Im in the habit now of locking my house door behind me in or out... hide my keys, etc..

I hope it all turns out well for you anyway fella

It's nice to think that after w*rking hard for something you really desire, you discover you can't have it, because society's scum take it away from you.

I'm gutted for you Bubba - people like this ought to have their legs broken.

I thought you might be coming up on the bike or something. There's been a 15k focus stood outside for three weeks and they haven't had a go at that.

We're all still completely distraught.

The last few months seem to have seen a large rise in Impreza thefts.

I am a member of Surrey Scoobies, and there are a few police officers on there who have warned of gangs working locally stealing Subaru's.
Bit of a worry for me, as there are 2 Impreza's outside my house....although both have very good security on them.

As above, i doubt the thieves use this site, it's more than likely they spotted/stole your old car and wait to see if it gets replaced.

Really feel for you, as i know i'd be gutted if mine was to disappear.
