Car's been broken into

possibly one of the worst things you can get told as a car owner, that your pride and joy has been vandalised.

a smashed window, my stereo has gone and the cheeky ***** even pulled the rear seats down to find my sub, took that too.

i left it at the mrs' house, it's pretty much always there so i thought nothing of it. just use this as a reminder (if you are a car owner) to always take everything of value with you when leaving your car, even if you have a decent alarm or any other safety features.

gutted tbh.

**** that sucks! Lucky my car has no real value (i have nothing good inside.)

neither do i any more! and i have shrink wrap around my door, the window is on the floor about 10 miles away.

I remember when someone tried to break into my car. They were obviously noobs because they didn't manage it, but it is still gutting!

i cant say thats happned to me fortually, although iv had my moped stolen twice and my motorbike stolen once, all they do is joyride ;[

This is why first car = amazingly awesome classic Mini <3

Karma is at work

Not your chainsaw Clio?! Ouch, sorry to hear that if it is or isn't :( Does your car have double locking? That apparently slows down and really annoys vandals/thieves (means they can't open doors, boots usually).

omg i lol'd so much soz

and your car looks new-ish how did the alarm not go off and how did someone not notice it?

It's not always practical to take your sub and stereo with you when you leave your car. In the states most after-market stereo systems have a detachable faceplate so the stereo is useless to thieves without the faceplate. My Honda has a anti-theft system on the radio as well, if I disconnect the battery I need to enter a code to get the radio working. When I did the navigation upgrade on my last Accord I didn't get the code with it so I had to get the VIN# from the donor car and I had to prove to Honda that the unit wasn't obtained from a chop-shop. I've had people "break-in" my cars before (I left it unlocked) and take stuff like my FM transmitter or money from the console but nothing serious. Our 745 was stolen once, but that was my fault because I left a key in my jacket and my jacket was in the unlocked car (oops) It was found the next day with the key still in it, my jacket still in the back, my iPod in the glove compartment and not damaged. It's violating to know that somebody has touched your personal property!

My home was burgaled when we went to Chicago. They took my gameboy and my nans jewlruy.They didnt touch my baby brothers room though.

My little adopted sister steals from us a lot recently. She stole my chewing gum and my iPod Touch. Got it back though. Happens again and the ***** will be moving out.

Had my moped robbed just under a year back, got thrown into the back of a huge transit van and our car got broken into 3 years back, took the stereo and took our copied cds. I was quite embarassed to remember i left elton john, simply red, craig david and tom jones cds in there :S

Unlucky man, hope you find the little gypo's and give them whats what!

I'm sorry to hear this, I hope everything gets sorted soon, and the thieves get caught.

:(
all covered by insurance though, right?
