Title: Cinqs been broken into
Post by: soopahfly on December 19, 2007, 11:11:34 AM
Stupid kids.  They dont know what theyve missed when they broke into my cinq.  They didnt touch the £150 headunit (Faceplace removed), £200 amp or £100 sub.  Didnt even take my £50 dash speakers that are clearly visible.  Nor did they touch the TomTom under the passenger seat (stupid me), the motorola MPX200 in the door pocket, nor did they take the PH Meter/suspended solids meter from the boot.

Im at a loss.  Looks like they bent my door for sh*ts and giggles.

So has soopahfly *really* been overdoing the baked beans? :?



Shame they did it for no reason, but far better than they stripped everything out and left you with a shell ;)

Na, im going to fix it, Ive got most of the stuff off I need to replace, rounded one bolt off in the Cylinder head and one just wont turn!

Once Ive got it fixed though Ill be selling it.  Or I might put it in the boot of the new Delica.

lol, nah, no real need for a car atm, but the missus needs something to learn in at some point, and i could keep it off road for a while if needed... the current solution is getting the train home and driving my mums car up here whenever i need it...

Ill bear you in mind matey.
Its looking like needing a new door, as the pikeys couldnt break in by jamming a screwdriver behind the handle, so they bent the glass.

Ive also left a notice in the window saying
"Nothing cool left in this car, Youve missed your chance.
Half the engines in the boot."

Maybe in the rough area where you live, but its the first break in in the area in over a decade. besides, if they cant figure out how to open a cinqi think petrol and matches are too advanced for them.  A neighbor has kindly offered the use of his garage.

Most criminals everywhere cant break into a car without either damaging it or breaking the locks. Not like the old days when we could open every door on your car, in minutes, without so much as the slightest single scratch. <*I have never stolen any car, and the owner was always locked out of their vehicle when I did it.*>

Unfortunately they also think like Neanderthals, petrol+matches=fun!

This is far more likely if it looks abandoned TBVH.


Actually, look at the cars around yours, they might have been trying to tell you that the area is too posh for a cinq.

Did you ever hear anything about yours steve?
Dont think the average pikey would reach to do any damage to my new one, they cant reach the top of the doors to bend it, cant even reach the windows to break them. I look down on the Range Rovers and other such 4x4s/

nah - the manual turned up at the police station but the car vanished into thin air.  Insurance company eventually paid up a decent amount tho.  Its suprising that a car can literally vanish in this day and age.
