What puzzles me is why anyone would go to the trouble of stealing one. There must be much easier cars to steal, unless you happen have a key for it!.

And there must be easier cars to conceal after stealing them I would say.
Everyone keep 'em peeled.

personally, I think these car stealing scum should be hung from the largest tree by their dangly bits and the owners of the cars they stole should be allowed to prod them with a red hot poker no.......a tazzer electric shocker to your hearts content.

when my car was stolen many years ago...plod dragged their heals as it was considered to be a petty crime. speeding motorists are a worse crime. I paid some money out to find a name. the scum duly coughed a name and I paid the villian a visit 1 dark and cold night. funny how he sang like a canary when I had my foot on his windpipe. I duly paid a visit to all his mates 1 by 1 and got satisfaction.

but....the rub is.....THEY went to the plod to report me for assault.....hee hee

excuse me officer, I stole his car and he beat me up!!!!

fortunately it went no further. BUT the effect it had on me is that I am paranoid where I leave the car so much so that I tend to plan a route to include safe parking where I can see the car at all times.

sorry to here about you're car George.

Thats a real bummer mate. These people are not fit to live in my book. And the law sucks when it comes to dishing out punishment for the crimes they commit >:(. Its these ass holes that cause so many accidents by injuring or maiming innocent bystanders. And what happens............ another speed camera. I really feel for you and i hope you get your car back in one piece ;)
Would you want to publish your cars reg plate? Just incase it gets spotted? Along shot it maybe but you never know.
Cheers for now
Nick ;)

George,
I know this may seem a silly question, but are you sure you went to where you parked it?
Many people have become confused when parking in a very large shopping centre and cars reported stolen have sometimes been recovered - right where the owner left it.
Was it a large shopping centre?
