My R32 Was Nearly Stolen Last Night In Southport

[DriftSquad]

So I woke up this morning to find my car was not where I parked it... Anyway after walking 200 meters down the road I found it again... Ignition completely hacked stearing lock smashed computer tampered with.. Lucky for me I have a secret kill swich which they couldn't find!

Just a warning out to every one.. These scum bags are out there! The police have been informed.

we all know there are scum bags out there,

what were the popo's reaction towards your report?

[DriftSquad]

They say there going to do a forensic report but don't know when I feel so lucky.. I should get an alarm.. Any suggestions?

By forensic report they usually mean they will turn up to your house randomly a few months later.. fingerprint the car, leave the shit dust crap and never get anywhere..

If they don't show up in a couple of days, I personally wouldnt bother.. Unless you arent requiring the car anytime soon..

Well the police are printing the car now hopefully they find something but who knows... What's a good car alarm to help scare these wankers off

It's been said time and time again, if they want it, they'll get it.

Get a garage.

I do have a garage, I was at my gf house.. Otherwise it would have been safe! Iv been looking at alarms all day but don't know what to go with

It's been said time and time again, if they want it, they'll get it.

The idea with security controls is to make it difficult enough that the thieves decide its not worth the hassle (and possibly move on to an easier target, but then its someone elses problem). For example, safes are rated on how long they take the crack under a standardised environment.

IMO, yes an alarm is worth it (for example, it may have saved the OP a smashed steering column) and if it appears that its going off for no reason multiple times, be aware that this is one way thieves trick people into turning it off. So if that happens, hide close by with a shotgun/baseball bat/German Shepard etc
