  Yesterday morning got up at 6 a.m. kitchen making a brew looked out at meega to find the passnger front window smashed , they did'nt go in the car just opened the glove box nothing in there and they obviously breaked off then did'nt hear the alarm go off :-/ took is over and hour yesterday morning to clean up all the glass which was everywhere rather f*ckers . So totally screwed my plans up for yesterday tok the car down national windscreens, will pick it up this morning pay the £50 quid excess, and then maybe go up to Billing.

Called/reoprted it to the police of course, they want me to take the car down to take fingerprints on Monday :-/, and i also have the offending object used to smash the window 8-). Fortunately they did'nt open the boot or check the drivers side as if they had they would have came up trumps . Lucky for me ...Thats the second time in 7 years that has happened here they done my previous car 7 years ago done the locks in, took the fag butts out the ashtray and a set of master keys (council access keys).

Anyway hope you al have a better weekend than me

Bad luck Mike, but DO look on the bright side. Think about what damage these mindless little b@stards can do if they put their mind to it. They can cause your car to be an insurance write-off.
Enjoy the weekend, dont let them win

Soz to hear this Mike.....same thing happened to my Omega   Coz i didnt take the sat nav out one night......they missed my change dispenser (id left that in there too   )....which had more dosh in it than they would have got for the sat nav!

I took mine to RAC windscreens.......who vac'd out all the broken glass for me and fitted a temp perspex window for a few days until they got a new window in for it.

Tho still a pain and wasted a fair bit of time  

Oh and ive still got a broken ashtray....where they ripped the charger out of it  

[Markie]

aye, could have been wprs, still make me furious though.

I like how you have to take te car to the police...

[Crazydad]

Sorry to here what happened, don`t let it spoil your weekend to much.
i know how you feel

Same thing happened to me a while back, went home to Essex after my mum died, left a plastic bag on the passenger seat with socks and undies, and unfortunatly my Passport.
 10 minutes later it was all gone glass all over the place. Police came down, all the usual stuff had a new side window fitted the same day (Thanks car glass quick work)  had to drive all through Europe without ID that was nerve wrecking thank god the borders are open, a week after i got back recieved a letter from the local police that they had stopped their investigations due to lack of evidence.
Its the same all over the country stinking little F@ckers.

what bastards! - not nice to see either.

With a bit of luck they might get a figure print off the glove box  

[Elite Pete]

Sorry to hear the bad news Mike

[Markjay]

Sorry to hear this Mike, I guess I've been lucky with the 'meega though the wife's Previa which is normally parked next to it in the street had been broken into three times in the past 3 years - twice by smashing a side window and once by forcing the door lock. needless to say there was nothing of value to be taken anyway. Life in London... On a more upbeat note, once you clean up the inside of the car and get the window replaced you'll forget all about it...

Sorry to hear about the car Mike. Thiefing scumbags they should get their hands cut off

[Martin_1962]

Oh dear not nice - I hope you catch the bastards!

[familyman]

Sorry to hear that mate, bang out of order.  What makes it worse in some ways was there was nothing to nick so all the hassle time and money for nothing. We got a Brit on pole in tomorrows G/prix. !st time in 11 yrs if that helps??

awful news about the car  

touch wood i've been lucky so far, but i keep my glovebox locked, and there's nothing valuable in my car anyway and nothing at all on show apart from my copied CDs

Might be better leaving the glove box open Dan, if they can see there's nowt in it they won't break the window to see if there is.

Crap news Mike, little b@stards.

[Craig_R]

I am Sorry to Hear about your car getting broke into Bloody Scum bags.

I try and have nothing on show and i always try and park next to a posh car so they go for that instead

cheers for that.. having thought it over i come to the conclusion that regardless of my glove box being open, closed, full or empty, thieves will still smash a window and have a rumage through just incase they feel they're missing something, at the end of the day they're often relentless, they know people hide stuff away and out of view, and they know more and more cubby holes exist in cars these days
