Have you ever had your satnav/stereo nicked
« on: 02 May 2007, 11:35 »
Right then,

After some adverse posts about people getting their stereo/satnav systems nicked from their cars, I wondered what percentage of people have actually suffered this fate. This isn't just a poll for MKV golf's, any car you've had over the last XX amount of years is fair voting.

Hmm, should prove interesting :rolleyes:

well its a bit difficult for me. i dont need a sat nav bcuz i never go far in my golf bcuz he's 1.1 and he revs his knackers off doing 60 on the a500.

i also am not into stereo's that much..... my stereo has a head unit and 1 centre speaker for quality music lol
now thats what i call 'melted ice!!'

Can you alter the poll, to show something like:

- OEM SatNav

- OEM ICE

- Aftermarket fitted SatNav

- Aftermarket fitted ICE

- Stand-alone SatNav (like TomTom, Garmin, Magellan, Medion)

- No ICE/SatNav theft

beacuse there are marked differences between thefts of the free-standing, vs OEM fits.

There's no way I'm going to vote No. Talk about tempting fate....

Sorry TT, I thought the poll had an edit function :embarassed:

Turns out once you've released the Poll out into the wild for it to roam free, you can't edit it. We'll have another stab at it later on in the year with all the other bits added.
Seems like (so far) it is tomtoms in the lead :shocked:
