stevemac 0 Posted September 15, 2003 Some, rather unfortunate, guy decided to steal (and write-off) my Scirocco 1.8i on Saturday night....... :( A neighbour of mine managed to grab hold of the thieve's accomplice. After a shortish period of "interrogation", this accomplice was "very happy" to provide the name & address of the thief. Just got home tonight...............don't think this thief is gonna be stealing any more cars for a while....... :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markTTC 0 Posted September 16, 2003 It scares me to think what I would do If I caught some little $hit tampering with my car - the law is an ass though - as shown in the Farmer Tony Martin case :x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valver 0 Posted September 16, 2003 Good work fella!!....be careful not to post anything too incriminating tho, you don't know who might be reading?.. Nice to read of a TWOCer getting his come-uppance for a change tho!!! 8) :lol: :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevemac 0 Posted September 16, 2003 I've calmed down a bit now. Like "Valver" says I can't really go into too much detail. The problem with "insured losses" is that the police don't really give this type of crime much importance. I'm a big believer in "what goes around - comes around". If people want to burgle houses or steal cars then they must be prepared to accept the consequences and I don't mean just a slap on the wrist by the police !! Fortunately my Scirocco wasn't worth too much money & the excitement of last night easily compensated for the loss of the car... :wink: Happily, my Corrado has an alarm/immobilisation system which means that to steal it the thief would need a low-loader.
