That's terrible mate, the cops need to set up a sting and catch the scrotes in the act!

Personally I think that if you hide the key somewhere in the car they will only do even more damage trying to find it.

Yep...My thoughts too.

I'll leave both nuts in the boot along with my mobile number, so they can always ask if they need advice on wheel removal.

Sorry to hear about your troubles matey!

One saving grace is this wasn't done at your home address as that would be even more worrying!  :happy2:

My laptop was also taken from the boot which contained lots of clues to my home address, so I have increased security at home just incase. October is time for the little Bu**ers to start collecting the stolen goods just in time for Christmas....May they rot in...

Sounds like a Nottingham chav is upgrading his car by the sounds of it, gutted for you dude  :ashamed:

not so sure people should be discussing the security of their cars on an open forum though, even if it is only the location of the where the locking nuts are kept inside it....

Wow gutted for you. You'd rather they had the wheels than cause loads of £££ damage.  :sad1:

I had a Nova GSI  :ashamed: when they were new. Parked in Hull and they took the rear screen inc rubbers and all stereo, components, amps, sub, the lot without a trace!! Couldn't find the screen and left no prints!!

These people have no shame and all the front of Brighton Pier!!!

Really sorry to hear about this,

I wouldnt recommend leaving them by the spare, its a bit too obvious, its a time game, if they cant find the nuts in sub 1 minute they arent going to hang around, mine are well hidden,

Its pathetic that they felt the need to vandalise the paint too, as if stealing your wheels isnt enough. We should have tougher sentences for these scroats', all they'd get is a slap on the wrist most likely even if caught.

Save up and buy your own wheels! Scum!  :fighting:

and relax.....

There are lots of good hiding places for the locking nut within the car but there my little secret I'm afraid. At least they are on an open forum! I can see why you might wanna leave it somewhere obvious so they don't cause any damage but if thats the case whats the point in even locking the car? There's no door pins to see sticking up etc. Make it as HARD as you can for the thieving little tw*ts! The longer it takes the more likely they are to be seen and the more likely they are to fu*k up and get bored or leave something incriminating behind! I really hate tea leave mate!! They should be shot! :fighting:

Horrible news mate.

Reminds me of a story I heard about the new Focus RS. Some poor chap ordered one from the dealers. The day before it was to be collected, it arrived at the dealers.

Overnight, someone had smashed the back window, gained access into the boot to get the locking nut and stole the rims.

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