Default I'm a victim of car crime......Now with added daylight!

Well. It's 4.32 ish in the morning and I've just had quite a stressful hour.

I was quite happily asleep in my bed. Then I heard a loud knock from the door. Weird. It's 3.30 am, why is there someone at my door. I open it to find a copper. Asks me if I'm me. It's 3.30 in the morning so I'm not sure if I am........ answer yes anyways, assuming my brain will catch up in a minute or two. Do you own a blue Toyota Mr2? Yes I say (brain was definately getting better by this point)

Then he said the words no-one ever wants to hear.........

"Your car has been broken into......"

Shit.......


I go get dressed, then the 2 police get some details from me. Serial number of my stereo etc etc.

I go down and I'm greeted with the worst sight in the world....







They'd smashed both the drivers window, the rear 1/4 glass, and pulled the windscreen seal out. Why the did that I'll never know, but thats smackhead junkie fuckers for you!

As you can see from the pics, they destroyed my little cup holder, which I was quite attached to.

They didn't actually get my stereo, as it's a well made Toyota, it's all bolted into the dash. They destroyed everything else around it right enough, but it's still there.

And I made the classic mistake. The face for my Sony Stereo..... Was in the glovebox. Stupid stupid stupid. Whats the point of having a face off stereo, if you keep the face in the car.... Thats a mistake I won't be making again. They also got all the CDs I had in the car, which isn't too bad as most were DIY jobs I made on the computer, but they got my Oasis 'Stop the Clocks' CD, which was a birthday present from my wife. Which was still in it's box. THAT annoyed me more for some reason....

The dash is destroyed around the centre console, air vents are in bits, the fascia panel itself is cracked. Luckily thats not difficult or expensive to replace. And thank god for the MR2 storage bin behind the drivers seat! As my Sat Nav was in there, but Mr Crackhead McFuck didn't think to look in there so it stayed. Thats now nice and safe in my Living room. All in, I'm gutted. But I could be alot more gutted.

I phoned up my insurance company, who were pretty damn brilliant. Direct Line. They can't get me glass until monday/tuesday as they don't carry it in stock for the MR2, so they offered to store my car in a secure warehouse for me until it's secure again. Magic.

I have to take it up at 8am, so i got some bin bags and trusty duct tape, and tried my best to keep the scottish weather out.




So, I'm not particularly happy. Could be alot worse though.

For some reason, the Toyota Alarm didn't make a peep.... So, as soon as it's fixed, full Cat 1 security will be going on.

So, if you're a Paisley resident, and someone offers you the face from a sony CDX-GT300S and an oasis CD, kick them in the balls, as hard as you can. Then phone me, as I will be right there to insert large metal objects in parts of them where it will be the most painful.



Thats the stereo, just inacse.

And remember, it could be you next, so make sure the face goes with you out the car. Cheers for reading.

I'm not too upset about the damage, I just feel weird that someone was in my car poking about.

And the CD annoys me. My wife got me it for my birthday. I hope the little smackhead cunt cuts his arm next time, and bleeds to fucking death. One less junkie cunt on the street works for me.

Well mate, worse things have happened to people. I can fix all this, and the car will be good as new.

Still.... 5 minutes alone in a room with the junkie cunt would make me a very happy chappie

No, they reckoned the getting a print off the dash was not possible, and they couldn't get one off the glass as he broke just about every window on the car.

Dunno what happened to my toyota alarm.... I thought jap kit was meant to be reliable

bunch of fucking wankers, but as said, could have been a lot worse.

You can get that security film stuff that goes inside the window, means the glass will shatter, but won't actually break through, could be worth investing in some of that?

Bad luck Rab



As John Travolta said though, the only way to deal with this when you get another stereo and an alarm is to take the face off......

When my missus still lived in paisley before she moved to the side of scotland with soap , she will kill me now ,lol , i used to sleep with one eye open when my cossie was parked outside , some proper knobheads were always hanging about having a good look and could hear cars slowing down as they pass etc etc , thats why i took my wee escort van most of the time as nobody bothered that ,lol

But gotta admit , i think we all fookin do the same with the face of the stereo tho ,either in glovebox or door pocket under general shite ,lol

i had similer fucknuggets doing that sort of shit to the 3 door when they tried to pinch it
first it was the indicator they pulled out
then it was the door lock
then they broke the window
then they broke the ignition cowling
and then they broke the barrel
still couldn't get it started as there was alarm on the fucker but it didn't go off

change where you park the car at least, get it under some shelter or borrow a garage, it's the most tempting sight with bin liners over thw windows, and make sure the tape you've used to hold them on doesn't mark the paintwork either

one more thing, hope you catch the fooker/s

Shit news mate, good the car's still there though...

If you have a face off stereo, always park with the glovebox open

It just shows that it's not worth trying...
