Default Pikey scum. Garage broken in to

Had the keys to my garage for about a week now and was supposed to be putting my Fiesta in it.

Got a phone call from the council telling me it had been broken in to. Not happy at all and I'm thinking twice about bringing the car up to my new place

I actually went round all the sites of local garages and looked around and chose these as they are located right next to some nice posh houses and were nice and clean with good visibility so toe rags can't hide away while getting up to no good. Seriously tempted to terminate the contract with teh council and just leave the car at the inlaws

If you can leave it round the inlaws i think doing that would be the safest bet, as if they broke in not knowing what was in there before, seeing your motor going in and out now they would prob deffo have another attempt. If you are struck and have to use it, pop into argos or b-wise or something like that and get like loadsa those battery powered alarm systems so you can put them up on the wall in the garage to make a bit of noise if they do brake in.

I've had mine for 5 years and never had a problem. The neighbours keep an eye out for me

A good location is hard to find. Maybe it'd worth travelling to get a good garage as you can always leave your other car in the garage when you take the RS out?
