its time we took things into our own hands if you ask me,if we was allowed to that is!if someone steals a car they deserve a kicking,dosnt matter if its a 1.1 knackered fezza or a top of the range BMW,we work hard to pay for them,and they think they can have them for a buzz,or make some quick cash!nob heads!

taking the piss aren't they!

How they get it though with no keys.

think all owners must put additional security devices on their cars.

Hope you catch them.

damn right there taking the piss,the only thing is,nobody should have to put additional security on there cars or homes to stop the bell ends from stealing cars,its down to the police to start coming down harder on the people,instead of a slap on the wrist and dont do it again!IMO these bell ends arent scared of the law,they see it as fun!

Not good that the immobiliser can be bypassed so easily!

That's a question I would like answered.... how did they take it without the keys??????

If I were an RS Focus owner I would be starting to get worried, dealer I bought the ST from said the only way a thief would get round the alarm is if they had the keys for it.....

I was thinking it could have been knicked via transporter until someone said that some young lads had been spotted driving it about!!!!

This is worrying..... might be time to do a spot of Toad transferring.....

Makes me think my cat 1 upgrade is not enough, may have to go down the tracker route.

Its sad that you should need one but if these cars are getting nicked it sounds like it is time to get tracker on all FRS's at least you stand a chance of getting the car back/shit heads locked up!
one of my mates works in a body shop and he said there is a book in the trade that tells you how to get into any car without the keys, as soon as the shits know this they just need to work out how to start the car and then they pass the info on to all there theiving friends
TIME ALL FRS HAD A NEW ALARM/TRACKER FITTED

It's not down to the police. Blame the CPS and government - punishment is determined by the judge and the courts.

inmy experiencesof car crime though,the police just give me a crime number over the phone,they dont even ask any questions about the car,where it happened,or any other info the could help them in there job!
