I wish they would create a cancer to target the criminal gene.
So many good people are suffering and this pond scum still thrives.

Report it to the police, if it's logged you may get away with it. Glad to hear you're okay though.

Definitely report the event to the police Rich. Need is a valid defence to a speeding charge.

Scummy mother fuc&ers You should have tried to run the bast%rds over if they got out.

I remember some one posting the same thing in Handsworth about 5 months ago. Unfortunately they got his Scooby IIRC

What? And get thieving scum all over the bumpers?

Thats actually pretty scary, I'd have no hesitation reporting it to the Police, irrespective of the speeding issue or not.

Quick thinking though, glad to hear yourself and the Scoob got away safely.

My girlfriend is always mocking me for locking the car doors before I drive off anywhere, but a locked door might give me a couple of extra seconds to make good my escape before some thieving scum gets my door open.

Lucky escape fella, make sure you report it though, if its a regular spot and gets reported the police may get lucky, shame you didnt get more details of the car but you had other things on your mind,
Ive always locked my doors, most cars have even had car jacking fitted(only 1 garage cocked up lol)

Shame you cant have something nice without jealous c11nts wanting it.

My one mate in tht are a few years ago got "tapped" from behind at some lights as he jumped out the car to reminstrate with the drive another @@@@ jumped into driver seat to drive off.

My mate put his arm throw open window to take out keys, he ended up being trown from car at great speed and now has metal plate in his wrist.

bloke got caught with tracker and went down for 6years IIRC

Glad the OP got away!

The std Subaru Sigma alarm has a built in anti Hi-jack feature whereby the doors are automatically locked after turning on the ignition. I would suggest everyone should activate it.

If you're really worried a Blackjack may also be a good idea.

Bloody hell Rich, First time you use the car in 2 months and someone tries to car jack you.

Lucky they didnt have a gun/knife etc, or even a rocket launcher(possible round Soho Rd, Handsworth) Seriously mate, I would avoid that place in the scoobs at that time of night.

On a related subject, about ten years ago in a golf gti I turned up a side street at night to find a skinhead standing in the middle of the road , I stopped and waved him to continue, at this point he approached the car placed his hands on the bonnet and just stared at me.

I placed the car in reverse and as soon as I moved, the ****** jumped on the bonnet and gripped the wipers.
Ok a thought **** you and a floored it, his response was to press his face against the window and grin at me.
I stopped and motioned him to get the **** off the car.
He put one foot on the ground and tried to reach round for the door handle, so I floored it again barrel rolling him over the car.

He was on the ground a good twenty seconds about thirty feet behind the car before he eventually "terminator" style stood up shouted something then hobbled off into the night.

Sorry for the long story and the slight thread-highjack but goes to show there are some right nutters out there.

Glad you got away ok.

I noticed an old mondeo full of heads tailing me near liverpool, (in broad daylight) pulling alongside then dropping back, gettin right up my ****, for about 10 mins, knew something wasn't right, wasn't your normal boyracer tryin to have a go in a gimped up saxo! was gonna knock it down to 3rd & hit the loud pedal like i normaly would, but i had my then 6 month old son with me, as i pulled up at a set of lights i fipped the central locking, this heap pulls up alongside & the passenger gesture's me to wind the window down, in a propper thick scally acsent starts goin on bout how he'd just sold his 20 grand "scooouuuwwwbie", out of the corner of my eye i saw someone dash round the back, then run down the drivers side & try & open my door ! as he did he saw my son in the back in his car seat, then legged it back to the mondeo shoutin he's got a f**kin kid in there ! i dread to think what might of happened had i not noticed them tailing !!

They are all f**king scum and should but castrated

unfortunatly the police dont give a ****, i had a 3 month old Ducati nicked, and all i got was "well your insured arn't you"
