alexr Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I don't know if I should congratulate you on stopping the little scrotes or commiserate about the damage to the car. So well done and sorry to hear about the car….. There you go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpk Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) Glad you caught the thieving little ****s !! They probably would'nt know what to do once they had started it Edited August 8, 2010 by mpk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) At least the police responded and were there quick enough to catch the thieving little ****s. The trouble is that they will all no doubt be unemployed so trying to get any costs out of them in court for the damage they did will be near enough impossible. Just to add to the frustration faced by the police (And yourself as the victim) they are likely to get away with just a slap on the wrist and told not to do it again so you have to wonder about what has happened to the judicial system. Shame you didn't have a nice little Rotty that liked "Playing with scroats" that you could have released to administer some fairer form of justice!

njc110381 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Well it's good that there's no major damage to the car I suppose. And well done to your local coppers, they did well. I'm itching to say it though... It's a shame they didn't get it going so they could then crash it and maybe kill themselves. I knew a lad who died in a car he stole and at the funeral he was described as "a lovely young lad". Really? Can't say I noticed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Probably kid's = most cars have chipped keys now since 1990's & they wouldn't be able to start it most cars are nicked now by stealing the keys from house/pocket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiemonsterandmerlin. Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Not too sure how there got it open it hasnt got a alarm just a imoblizer in some ways I should have let them have it away it alot of hassle sorting the ingition barrel replacement .

shootreview Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 If they write it off offer to buy it back from them and just get a new ignition fitted yourself if the car is still good. I did this a few years back with a fiesta, they wrote it of for £600 worth of damage so i got the car back and £510 and still drove it for 6 months then sold it for £200.

Cheers guys OTH thing is with an immobiliser they couldnt have started the engine anyway- just done so much damage- an ignition barrel is not as expensive as you may think- try the 27/7 breakers on-line I found a barrel for my WRX with 2 sets of keys for £40 delivered Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
