i had my window smashed a couple of weeks ago and the only thing that got took was the front off the stereo not the whole stereo just the front it didnt bother me that much because it only cost me a tenner for it but the thing that bothered me the most was it cost me Ł70 for a new window and petrol to fetch it

Years ago had my Orion broken into, passenger window broken. I expected to find stereo nicked, but no, nothing seemed missing. Then driving home noticed my Road Tax gone!
As other say, it more annoying arranging glass replacement etc. and I kept finding tiny shards of glass for years after!

Total scumbags

my best mate had Ł2.5k in tools nicked from his van last yera while at swimming lesson with his 8yr old,was on cctv the whole episode,little lad got quite upset that his dads tools all gone so his girlfriend took him to maccy d`s for tea and to calm him down,bloody car that the pikeys used was there she rang the my mate who told the coppers to get there before he did as it would be messy if they didnt.a few of the scum were there near the car but no-one knew who owned the car,he got a lot back on insurance thankfully

they did it in broad daylight people walked past as they did the lock,went,came back ten minutes later and loaded up their car

gotta think tho, was that stereo 10 quid cos it was robbed off someone else?

if you hadnt bought it, they couldnt have sold it, and then they wouldnt be stealing them causing damage and mess

ideal world of course
