Default ***EVERYONE BEWARE, CAR JACKINGS!!!*** WILTSHIRE AREA

this happened to my mates last night

WE JUST been the f**king victim of An ATTEMPED CAR Jacking

f**kin hell man.

were in Farmer daves RS turbo in Trowbridge,
Taking his girlfriend home at the end of her road are two speed bumps
in a row. went over the first one slow cos the RS is low,

next thing we know the f**kin little Co rsa behind us is trying to overtake on the speed bump, SOME PRICK RAN UP NEXT TO The Car,
And f**kin Smashed the drivers side window!

Dave booted it and the corsa tried keeping up, but we lost it very
quickly thank f**k..

Galss everywhere, girls screaming, daves got glass in his head,
My hand and head are bleeding.

WHAT THE f**K we were just driving home



reckon these pricks must of been waiting for nice cars to come past
cos they definitly didnt follow us back from town..

All i know is it was a Vaux-hall corsa, in Purple, and I THINK
it was L reg, base model type one with black bumpers.
The guy was shouting us to stop or something, they definitly wanted the car.


and also another guy was stopped at the 5 ways traffic lights when 2 guys cam from nowhere, 1 of them got through the drivers window and he said it took a few punches to the head to get rid of him

beware peeps

my mates have cuts to their hands and faces from the glass but are ok, pepper spray is a good idea.

id get the c*nt in a headlock and floor it upto about 80, then drop the fukka out the window, turn round and run the c*nt over, twice!

I used to do the same until it was taken off my by a huge black bloke with a hatchet whilst negotiating a drug deal and didn't have the bottle to ask for it back afterwards

O.G. baby

Seriously though, you do know carrying pepper spray is a firearms offence over here?
You will get fooked for it if you use it (It is funny tho and proper hurts )

I just keep a baseball bat behind passenger seat and a ball in the glove box for those lazy afternoons down the park officer

Fookin' sad state of affairs that I feel the need to carry a weapon in my car to fend of scum

Kin ell,
This is a bit TOO close to home for my liking.

Hope you boys are all ok now.

Anyway, I have an anti car jack device fitted. They wouldnt drive my old shed more than 100 feet !

It activates by the door opening, so if you don't punch in the code every time the door opens, car stops after pre-programmed time limit.

6 weeks ago I was going through Melksham on my way to Trowbridge when a L reg Corsa tried to block me on the short dual carridgeway after the lights, at the time I though he was just being a twat and undertook him

Wonder now if it was the same car

Glad your all safe though, did you report the incident (not that it will do any good though)

Have to disagree on this one.....


Most alarm sytems can be got round with a bit of time but the idea of blackjax is that the jacker wont know whats going on half way down the street and the alarm goes off and lights flash and the car cuts out in the middle of the road....he's hardly gonna pop the bonnet and get his tool kit out is he......

No dan, but if, lets say a cossie for instance, has got blackjax and the jacker knows............... it can be driven for sometime before kicking in. Not so much by-passed, just not kicked in. believe me

Blackjax can be got round but the jacker would need to know it was fitted before driving off and he isnt going to know or worry about it in the heat of the moment is he?

I have it on mine and its reassuring to know its there but at the end of the day if someone pulls a weapon they can have my car - I'm not getting stabbed for any old lump of metal! You hear of too many heros getting killed trying to protect their cars

I always leave a gap in front of me at traffic lights etc if in a dodgy area or late at night etc, my alarm also locks the doors when I start driving.
