Attempted theft
Had a attempted theft on the scoob on saturday night. I was parked on the drive and my brother had blocked me in with his FTO, I left the subaru open (stupid) as I have been tweaking the boost controller all weekend and forgot to lock it when I pulled up after meddling with the boost under the bonnet.
To cut it short at about 7pm just after diner, Mum goes outside to put something in the bin and finds a guy in a baseball cap in the drivers seat of the scoob, gives chase but he's got 3 bummers waiting in a car outside to get away. Complete pain now as not only did he smash the plastic around the steering wheel, but half of his tool is now in the ignition barrel where he jabbed something in there and it ended up snapping off. Guy must have been as dim as can be as its immobilised and he still tried just forcing the ignition round. The biggest mystery is that my brothers FTO had blocked me in, was locked alarmed and immobilised, so there was no way out for the scoob. |
Sorry to hear that mate.
Hope the 4 chavs crashed and suffered a painful death :mad: |

It amazes me the lengths people will go to to get hold of your car. They would have probably broken into your brothers car and tried to push it out the way or move it with your scooby if theyd have got it going - Bloody A-holes!!! :mad: |
you wanna be careful they dont come back now theyve recced it
...let the cops know too....it might prod them into being more aware of the area |
Got onto the cops straight away as I had the reg number on their car, I've now got 2 steel bollards, and a CCTV system on the way after having this happen. What annoys me is the lengths I have to go to in order to prevent this from happening. Stupid thing is during the day I went into town and got a mate to pick me up through fear of someone breaking into my car if I left it in a public car park, and then it goes and happens on my own drive!

Dont think for one minute they would have hesitated to ram the FTO out of the way..i bought an exhaust of a guy on ere and his car was blocked by two cars and a wheelie bin and they pushed the lot into the main road with the scooby before driving off in it

Scum but glad to hear is tool was stuck in the ignition barrel:norty: what will they use next:D

No Disklock, but a good kick up the behind for me to get more security savvy. |

Name and shame . get the numberplate of the offenders car up. is there no way of finding out info on the net of addresses through registration or owners names? surely then an electoral role can narrow the name down to that person in the local area.
if i had someones registration and means of finding out who the tea leafs were id be going down to rearrange their teeth with a lump hammer while dressed like the milk tray man. obviously the car they used could have been stolen but judging by his chuckle brother talents at robbing a car it wouldn't suprise me if the **** couldn't do a succesful TWOC even armed with a full set of keys,alarm fob and clear driveway. hope the police have a result with that mate. |
