Glad to hear it was a bungled attempt rather than a succesful one - that God for the armoured door plates you have fitted.
I think anyone who deosn't have them fitted should see just what they saved you, and buy some!!!
I had an attempted break in to my Mk IV a few months ago, but they tried every door lock (including the boot) and the rear 1/4 windows - nearly ?3k of damage. Makes me laugh that these scummers still try and break into cars when they are clearly alarmed.
You have my sympathies buddy, hope repairs can be done at minimum cost and you are back on the road asap
