So what have you done to your car today?

[henryd]

Spent the evening taping up windows with polythene. 

  Whats happened ??

Thieves smashed windows and stole an iPad in a school bag and her lap top out of her Lexus while it was parked in a school playground for her niece .

One of two incidents the same this evening according to hobby bobby expert nob head that's been round here the last hour and repeating everything 3 times.

They where extradinarily lucky, two incidents, both Esate rear windows and got electrical goods both times.

Wonder if Blu tooth or wifi was left on.

Bastards,I hope they catch them but I don't suppose they will.

Always a shitty thing to have happen

If you do find them, might I recommend a nice long soak in a bath in a mild acid solution, dried off with loft insulation

Any cctv

So far have changed the radiator, rebled the clutch and fitted poly bushes to the front ARB. Currently waiting to get the tracking dealt with (yes I know but will be going to WIM in the next month).

Changed the friggin' glow plugs on our TD ...

Am aching all over now ... time for a nice hot bath!

[albitz]

Removed s/l shocks and s/l sensor from the breaker.Quite enjoyed it once I got the overalls on for the first time in months.
Whetted my appetite for another breaker doing the jobs needed on my own car.

I have Changed the timing and drive belts, sheared a bolt on the water pump pulley then spent ten min's swearing. Then a few more bad words when i broke the nipple off the emission vacum box, then felt a bit better, when i remembered i had a spare.


Then I Fitted  a new car stereo and cut my hand feeding the microphone for the handsfree kit behind dash, thought at this point a coffee break was in order , Feeleing better after a coffee.


Then I knocked my head leaving the garage, and a few more choice words, Gave up for the day and opened a bottle of Chianti, now slightly drunk and i really dont care anymore.

Even if they do, the worse they'll get is a few months of free Sky TV

Tracking done, was nearly 10° out

Washed it as a reward for being driveable, now shiny outside

That's a shame Chris but a lesson learnt regarding leaving bags on view

[Jimbob]

Ordered a thermostat & transfer pipe

CCTV shows them scanning for signal along a line of cars furthest from the cameras. I don't think it would have mattered if the car looked empty. They would have smashed to boot window anyway.

Moral is, don't leave devices on in the car at all. IMO.
