Found this damage to the daily driver outside work earlier:

Happened between 9:30 and 2:30 today just off Boucher Road. Using the site cameras we spotted a burgundy ford fiesta park up behind my car and the guilty party levering it out at 12:17-12:21PM. There was quite a few parts lying in the boot and cabin and nothing has been touched

It's a good possibility that he took the bootlock to get a spare key cut. That way he could come back and claim her at a later stage. First time I've heard of this approach in a while so thought it was worth mentioning to keep everyone alert.

New bootlid and lockset goes in this weekend, heading out to start tonight and empty the car. In the meantime I'll be watching her like a hawk.

Had a bit of a rant earlier to anyone who would listen so I'm at the angry-calm stage now.. Feels like I've been kicked in the stomach FFS. I need to punch something. :flame:

It's possible. Everyone keep an eye on your barrels just to be safe.

Very tempting but that's a foolish path to take with such things and not my style. Karma will sort him out.

you must be a religious man im certainly not :p lol

its probably possible if hes in with a keycutter / has the ability to do it himself, but i dont think you can just walk into a shop anymore and get one cut

You can get keys made if ya have the lock, i got 1 made about a month ago by taking my lock out, only cost me £10 aswell...

Cheers lads,

Car is prepped for work tomorrow. Holding fire on the next round of modifications until I can rest easy again. Might start using the trackstar for that dailydrive. No-one would touch it!

if they can get a key made up from just the lock that would be realy easy to steal it :| if i were you i would wire up a kill switch.
