The way I see smashed windows is that I would rather come back to a smashed window rather than having someone having keyed it all down the side.

Yeah agreed, still nasty to see. Wouldn’t have annoyed me as much if i wasn’t in my first 24 hours of ownership. Was waiting at work all day to come back just to see it in bits. Will have to invest in an ncp pass :(

You seem in fairly good spirits about it!  I think I would be performing my own 'stop and search' of local scrotes with a baseball bat  :grin:

Car theft is far from over.  Everything in life goes in circles.  Remember high performance cars being uninsurable in the 90s due to joy riders stealing hot hatches etc?  Well apparently keyless entry cars will face the same fate as of next year!  That was one big f'ck up by car manufacturers, pandering to peoples' laziness and insatiable appetite for convenience.

It's the same old story unfortunately.  Leave absolutely nothing of value in the car, and that includes easy to sell on ebay RNS510s.  It's one of the reasons I sold mine and put a standard base spec radio back in, and just use the phone for nav  :smiley:

Yeah i think i would be doing if i wasn’t trying to keep positive. I didn’t even want to drive it home I was happy to die of hypothermia on the car park lol! But yeah its one of those things, i’m paying an extra £60 a month now to park somewhere more secure. Grim but needed, just weird that I parked my a3 there for 2 years without trouble but saying that it was the 63 with the screen that folds away. & i’ve heard the sat-nav in mine is top spec (4 buttons either side + aux).

Hope you haven’t suffered the same fate as me buddy
