    WTF is with that? They did the same thing when they broke into my Subaru. They took the stereo (that sucked, anyway), left the remote for it, and popped the trunk from the driver's seat. I didn't discover that my emergency bag was gone until I finally drove off and discovered the trunk unlatched. Lost a map book, blanket, first aid kit, extinguisher, tow strap, and jumper cables.

    Gawd, that sucked. I am soo sorry. I have literal nightmares about someone stealing my VX. That might be why it doesn't get out of the garage much anymore.

    Guess what.............................







    Got home just now after a few Vedett's (you'll have to look in the beer thread ) with Claire in Notting Hill and all my recovery gear was sat in my flat on the floor, the police brought it round whilst i was out

    theres an old Bomb shelter at the end of our garden in a very rare bit of waste london woodland that police found people living in yesterday!!! they had a good search of the area and foundsome of my stuff!!

    i must say the police have been here most days since stuff started to go down around here and they've been great. I owe them some tea and a biscuit next time they come over.....or a pint

    you have homeless people living in your garden and you didnt know it?!?! (or is this some sort of over the pond talk i dont understand?)

    thats great news that they found your stuff and the culprits.. too bad you didnt get ahold of them yourself!

    That is so great to hear! I only wish they found the actual thief so they could... I dunno... cut his hands off.

    Glad to hear some good news for a change.....

    I'd still like to know:
    1. How they got in your VX with no sign of forced entry.
    2. How the Police got in your flat while you were out.

    No idea how they got in the vx but its a very simple lock mechanism and theres a metal wire running to the door pin, easy to hook it with a coat hanger??

    I live in a shared flat, lol !! so my flat mate let him in.
