Probably a coincidence but a colleague had his number plates stolen from his silver golf last week in Chester.

What a bummer...

This kinda crime is getting more and more common now  :angry:

A workmate had his Golf GT stolen (with keys) a few weeks back and a neighbour had her Lexus stolen (with keys in broad daylight.) back in July.

I now always make sure my keys are near me, especially at night!

Maybe not a coincidence... I mean why would anyone want to steal plates if not to put on another car?

Cheshire, inbetween Stockport and Macclesfield.

Could have been worse.  You hear all sorts of stories about robberies for keys.  Just VERY annoying!

Waiting to get screwed on the insurance payout :cry:

Worrying. 

Care to specify exactly where?  That's very near to me.  Just give a clue if you don't want to post your location.  I live on outskirts of P*****n

Terrible news mate.   How did they get the keys out of interest?  Were you threatened?  Were you targeted or was it a chance theft?

Hi,

Keys taken in a chance theft (i hope).  Keys never in the location taken from, but gone on monday morning... house burglary.

Name of location does match the ***'s

take care.
