Hi,
Sorry to hear that dude,
I would agree, doubt I be able to hand over the keys without a fight, but in Ireland, I be arrested and the scambag would get a hand shake from the people and sent on his fookin way, to sue me at a later date.
Never come to Ireland in you what justice!!!

We always used to take our keys upstairs but decided it was safer not to, no way do I want my hubby stabbed for a car.
He only had the Evo for a few weeks after years of saving for it. Scoob had thousands spent on it over last 5 years.
I want to cry.

So they did come into your house and steal the keys? Makes you wonder how easy it is to steal vehicles even when your in the house. Sorry to hear the bad news.

I'd rather act in self-defence and inflict harm and be dragged into custody than to simply sit back and watch someone invade my home. Of course that's inflicting harm whilst acting in self-defence as opposed to just inflicting harm. I'd always strongly suggest to the perpetrator that they leave in haste first.
Jonts.
PS: Lydia, although an unpleasant experience I'm glad it wasn't any worse. Best wishes to you and your husband.

Sorry to hear about your disaster 
Good thing though, leaving the keys downstairs. I always do that now. There not in an easy place to find though, but if anyone wanted them and they couldn't find them then the door to the bottom of my stairs is always bolted when I go to bed, so if they were that stupid and tried to get up stairs then they would make enough noise to wake the dead
And I will be waiting

I totally agree with you, I always leave my keys downstairs, as a car can be replaced

Likewise my german shepard guards my keys 
, he is an exellent security upgrade ! also goes bananas when the car starts up so all the neighbours would know somethings going on.
Sounds like you need a big dog to help keep the thieving bas?!*ds away .
The law in this country is crap ! and i'm glad no harm has come to you from them. If they had law like in dubai they'd have no hands left to pick the keys up after stealing . To much time is spent on speeding and silly convictions ( money makers ) other then making these t**ts suffer for the crime and upset they have caused .
There thats my piece and I hope your cars are recovered ok

one advantage to living in modern block of flats, they might know which building i live in, but they would need to go through 10 flats before they find the keys!
none the less, its difficult to believe that some people are out there with no concern for society, think they can take what ever they want and screw anyone who gets in the way.
car thieves should have their nuts tied to a long lenght of rope attached to the back of the car they stole, then the owner can drive off as fast as possible, at the point where the slack is taken up, his car thieving days might not seem such a good idea.
