sorry to hear this - this keeps happening ....

Out of interesting - was it garaged / did they manage to take the keys? I thought a combination of a good alarm systems, steering wheel lock and keeping the keys safe were robust. This no longer seems the case

Sorry to hear. They want stringing up, and thats the least I would do to them!
Nothing is safe these days.

F**king tossers
I hope they get the ******* who did this Alan, not much you can do except wait to see what sort of damage they did to the car (if any) or if they abused the car (possably )
I take it the police are going to hold the car for forensics?

Forensics are looking at car now.

Bad thing is I don't have any keys so will need to get some new ones

I have heard from police there is some slight damage but don't know exactly what.

Wouldn't it be safer to let the AA/RAC take it to a garage rather than try and drive it if it isn't safe?

theyve got the keys, cos there gona try and come back!! classic dump it and tracker check... you need a new lock set, and recoding, dont know if its a new ecu etc, others on here are better to advise than me.

oh and to really rub salt into the wounds, sorry your the one who will foot the bill... and the ******* who did this, at best if caught, (fat chance) as its a non camera crime or a crime against the state, will prolly get a hug and 2 weeks in barbados

Sorry to hear about the theft of your car.
Was your car parked outside or in a garage ?
Did the little sh*ts take both keys or did you only have one set anyway.
Out of interest did the tracker work.
Hope any damage is minimal.
Nik.

i got it done for £375 as a favour but i know i was looking at in excess of £800 from robinsons of rochdale.

scum did same thing to mine, they took at parked it up but tracker located it.

u should claim your insurance mate as u said u have some damage. i had no damage at all hence why i paid for locks myself rather than use insurance.


there seems to be a few scoobys going lately and they all seem to be newage ones.

If theres a car in the street and a similar car in a garage which one do you think they will bother with????

Sorry to here m8, far to close for comfort (local to Oldham myself). Without wishing to go into the details was it a break in / key theft?
