Thieving scum

Comes to something when you have 5 solar lights worth 2 quid each nicked off the front garden, I mean WTF and worthless. I live in a quiet cul-de-sac and unfortunately my Cam didn't pick anything up as out of range. If I caught the thief I'd slice their fingers off :x

School kids may be. :(

We had the kids slide nicked out of the garden of our first home. Found out where it had gone, by chance and had the last laugh on the scum bags. :wink:

I had some lights nicked off the front some 10 years ago but been OK since, the road is really quiet, theres no kids or school kids that pass by so a bit weird and I live at the end of the culdesac. I've only set a cam up since I got the M140i which covers the car port as the car has become a bit of a theft magnet but no real history of thieving down the street. Beggars belief, the lights were there last night, never noticed this morning but noticed straight away when I came home from work. I'm not bothered about the lights just the fact someone was on the garden. I'm going to get some more and concrete them in. I would have loved it if the cam had caught them so might get another to cover the front of the house.

Never been any drama down the street apart from the next door but one neighbour killing themselves in the bedroom, apart from that nothing.

Don't worry about your lights Tim, my cars currently at the dealer getting accessed for this.

Two Oners got done within 100 meters of each other Monday night

Both locked and mine doesn't have confort access so little mithed on how they got in.

Did you post this on FB as sure I saw it yesterday. Hell fire, bastards. They must have cloned your key if they got in without damaging the locks. Items like steering wheels are acommon item to be nicked especially as the latest M Sport wheel is quite a nice item. A work colleague had the bonnet and headlights nicked off his Fiesta when parked up in Manchester over night :o

Yes was me, thats all they took from the other car, wheel and air bag. Apparently 2k from the dealer and their on back order according him.

I'll hopefully find out tomorrow what the damage is and how long the wait will be.
