Title: one way to end a good day with a bad note :(
Post by: crazy_e on 17 October 2011, 15:41: :angry:so i came out of my girlfriends house last night about 12 and went to my car i always park over the road due to no parking spaces. some little s*** had undone both clamps for my CAT and took off one end of it but no managed to get the other end off. good job they didnt as i dont really have the cash for that at the mo but what little s**** it must have been someone with a mk3 golf that is the only reason i could think of unbolting it on the news they said they cut them off :(

SO MESSAGE TO YOU ALL WATCH OUT AND KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR CARS

this was in st albans area just so you all know

I think that happened to robiwill on here but was done to multiple cars. Think he had CCTV footage and all sorts.

Post by: Bellend on 27 October 2011, 18:31: Nicked a load off my road last night. :angry:

Fecking heard/caught them at it and they've nicked my nans and a Transit and several others. Called the Police and yelled at them but damage done. My Golf was inbetween the Transit and me nans Polo but I assume it was too low to jack up.

Was a Silver/White Nissan Serrena van and a Silver MK1 Focus driving round.

Police have been round but nothing they can do. :sad: :angry:
