doesnt really help now but i would recommend buying one of these security post for your drive. I bought one last week as a neigbough saw someone peeking through my letter box at half 4 in the morning, a bit ugly, but may just put them off

It's a good idea, but where do you keep the key for practicality?... probably with the car keys? DOH!

I really hope you find the motor unharmed mate... as others have said get as much detail out there as fast as possible... someone just may have seen them driving it.
Love to know whether the iPad trick would work too... probably find a lot more knicked gear at the same time.

Yeah the idea is not to keep it with the car keys. Best place is in your boot, thiefs are thick and would never think it in the car.

Guted for you. Can't believe the feckers took it.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Thanks guys, times ticked on and to be honest I'm now just fooking angry.

It's a white 5dr dsg car with Recaro seats and black wheels. Had it a few days over a month! Pretty sure they have seen it cruising round our streets, the attempted to get a new focus ST from down the road.

The reg will be off by now, don't think they would leave it on that long as anpr would pick it up.

Gonna take time to replace it and god help them if they try again!

That's really sh*tty...sorry man.

I think you can possibly understand how some people just completely lose it and end up battering some thief with a cricket bat. Of course you wind up in prison, but there must be great satisfaction in watching them suffer.

Arrggh! I hate reading about things like this. Gutted for you - remember seeing the pics the other day and thinking what an awesome car.

This country has too many thieving, workshy scrotes in it for sure.

Hope the insurers prove easy to work with.

I think its hit me this morning, the helpless feeling really gets you - the sickening feeling that some low life scum has been in the house and taken things I work hard for and they obviously have no resepct.

I wont find another the same as it was nicely spec'd and had some individual touches - yes there will be others but this was 'my' car and after only having it a few months.

Now things are rules by those who dont stick to the rules - the wife hardly slept last night, my son has been upset - that hurts.

Sad news :sick:

On the off chance did u have "find my iPhone" installed on the iPad? U can use your apple ID to find it...

EDIT, although the cars more important, it might help u find the people who stole the R
