Fed up with this shite! I know everyone knows but we need to look out for an abundance of parts being flogged as this shit is not on. Hope it doesn't come north of the border or mines will get tucked away earlier this year.

You can't make a car impossible to steal, if someone wants it then they'll take it no matter what,

Not sure if it was on here or another site but there was a car that was parked in a big warehouse with other cars and caravans etc surrounding it with big locked doors and all that...

The car was still taken by thieves, all the other motors were parked outside the workshop the following morning


Can make it harder for thieves but never impossible

The deterrent for theft isn't strong enough and when they eventually do get caught out 9/10 get away with a slap on the wrist!

All crimes in this country no matter how petty NEED tough punishment or rather enforcement of harsher penalties as the law generally has lengthy maximum penalties/fines, just never imposed!

Make it to secure and you run the real risk these scummers will come into your home where your family are in a bid to take it. I'd rather give my car to the cunts than risk my family or loved ones.

I think looking at that comment he is a fellow scot and that black phrasing isn't intended to be racist. Up here it means manky lowlife scum!

Yeah "black" can also mean 'rotten to the core'!!

Some people in Northern Ireland use this term, to brand the old RUC (before it was changed to PSNI). I initially though people where colour blind, as the RUC uniform was a really dark green colour that could have been passed as black!!

Anyway back on topic:

Lets face it, there is too many folk have the access to internet these days, and they browse forums and start piecing random bits of information together!! Or they have friends that innocently or maliciously pass info via word of mouth!!! Or as mentioned in other threads, they simply follow people home from shows, meetings etc and either prance that night or even save a location in their sat nat or even memorise it!!!

If they want something, there will be every avenue thought of!! And as 1-PD mentioned in another thread, its prices and demands of RS parts that have made the scum rub there hands together - why attempt to try steal a Ferrari or Porker, when lets face it....a run of the mill "boring looking" Ford RS commands similar or in some cases more value. Also it wont stand out as much to people, going up a backroad/motorway etc at night time!!

People need to start of by pulling their threads off forums. There is a mass of "guest users" use them everyday and even when you pay to have your pride and joy concealed to a private part of, or an actual private forum....you will still get your cock heads that can still look, info gather, pass info etc!!!

I stick my car up on a few forums because the forums im on are mainland UK based and im in N Ireland. And its unlikely any scum in N Ireland is trawling through the forums im on to gather info on my car and its whereabouts. At the min they would have a hard time stealing it anyway, unless they fancy driving to northern germany.

But on a serious note, just watch what is said publically on forums regarding your RS', who you say it to, and be wary of folk who walk around your car at meets/shows etc!!

was working at a gentlemans house today who i shall i say is a public servant,we were discussing the recent car thefts & house break-ins & his advice (off the record mind) was give them a proper kicking to point where they are out cold then dump them on the other side of the road & leave them there,dont ring the police,dont admit ti anything....

bouncer mate of mine did a similar thing to 2 lads that tried to nick his trailer,saw them trying to nick it,so practiced his cricket swing on one of their legs,his mate said he was going to come back & get him so the lad got his other leg broken as a warning to the other lad of what he would expect

coppers knew the bouncer & asked how he happened to break both legs,"he fell into the trailer running away from me,then fell again trying to get out" was his reply

both lads darent say otherwise

this was about 20 years ago now,he never had any bother after that though



it appears its all they understand....

Cool I didn't know that either. Maybe that's why one of the lads at work called me a blk bastard. I couldn't work it out cos I'm a pretty pastey white ginger. Well that's what the others call me. Anyway I agree something needs to be done about these thieving coonts. The down side is that someone will without knowing buy parts off these cara in the future from eBay and the like

OT but the scottish term black, is like the same as black comedy or black humour films, isnt refering to something like bad boys.

Must catch a few people out who like to jump on the race card

All this and the council have the time to respond to one fucking stupid old bag in the corner of where I live complaining that my fence is too high.
Because of this they want it cut down to 1 metre as I live in an A.O.B,despite there being several others on the estate this height.
This will then clearly expose my car to all and sundry,particularly the lovely gippos who drive round the estate with one standing on the back of a flat bed transit so he can see into people's houses as to what they've got.
Looking forward to moving away from this god forsaken country,it just gets worse and worse by the day.
I thought Dai Cameron would have sorted more out by now but I'm afraid the labour legacy left will cost us for many more years to come.it took about 8 years after the last shower in the 70's but that was with the help of north sea oil/gas money and sadly it went too far the other way and ruined the manufacturing base we had.
Still Cameron doesn't need to worry about that....









It went ten years ago when Blair decided we should be a nation of call centre workers.
