Default Another Theiving Scum Thread.

This morning went to the scoob got in and noticed plastic trim on passenger seat.I was thinking...where the **** has this come from.Picked it up,had a look,was baffled,then noticed the underside of the steering wheel had lost its Plastic.

Three screws on the floor,thinking this could of not just fell off,rang Miss Speye,and she said she had not been in the car,and never put a bit plastic on the seat.

Further looks on the car,noticed small change missing from the console.Bareing in mind i unlocked the car prior to getiing into it,so i thought nothing of it.So i rang the poice and reported it.

Then at a freinds house this evening my partner went into the glove box....It was empty all my CD's had gone as well as,my daughters ipod missing.my wallet which was empty apart from a a few cards.

They never took the CD player(it's crap anyway) and other stuff in the car.

I had a CD multi-changer and a new head unit in the boot,but as my boot catch does not work,they could not get into the boot..


Plods turned up tonight,and i reported it at 11am,had a look,but hopefully when forensics come tommorow,there should be prints.

The car was locked and alarmed,thats what is baffling me,how did they get in,and without setting the alarm off.

Bizzare mate, and sorry you have become a victim to the theiving scum of the earth!

Would love to know the answer to the mystery of it all though.

Guess the missing plastics suggest it could have been worse
What year car and alarm do you have

How long have you had the car? Previous owner maybe?

Interesting but weird mate?

Has the car ever been a repo? If the alarm didn't go off and so forth maybe someone has a master key? However it does not explain the pulled away plastic on ther steering colum?

Have you ever broken a key? The transponder in the black plastic bit would still work to unlock the car and appease the immobiliser, but no metal key, no start.

just a thought - I don't know if you had the car from new or not, so possibly a previous owner broke the key and someone picked the fob up and got lucky.

CCTV is the answer.
