Some dumb fuck just tried to break into my car, parked outside my house. The alarm scared them off and I'm not surprised - it's a simple device, linked directly to the horn and sounds in a continuous blast. It's fucking loud.

They tried to get in by forcing the driver's door open, from the top. Now the top of my door is ajar by about an inch. The police are on their way to see what they can do (absolutely nothing, I guess, since neither I nor my neighbours saw the person).

As I was intending to get rid of the car (for scrap) at the end of the month, the end result is that it's going for scrap tomorrow. I doubt it'll be fun driving it anymore.

Bastard. I bet it's the same tosser that tried to take my wing mirror off on the night of Boxing Day.

EDIT: looking again it's more like 3-4 inches.

My car got trashed in a fight a while back. Totally sucks but I ID'd the fuckers and they're going down. Serves them for messing with a '79 Datsun

I went over to see my friend who lives about 2 minutes away opposite a pub. All I had to do was go in and get a folder I'd left there during the day. After about 30 seconds my alarm went off, I ran outside and my passenger window had been smashed, but because I have tints it didnt shatter. I'd left my wallet and phone on the seat because I thought I'd be out very quickly, and everything had gone, even the change in my little holder bit on the dash. Fucking bastard had been breaking into cars parked in the 3 local pubs, but thought he'd have a go at mine. A road maintenance person found my wallet in a ditch and phoned my dad (I had a few phone numbers on a piece of paper in it) obviously everything of value had gone. They did arrest the bloke who did it, but they've still got my phone as evidence, so Im not getting that back anytime soon.

Depends on the car. On mine, you could do that shit with a rubber chicken. Luckily I never keep anything of value in my car so there's no reason for anyone to do that.

It's quite a common method of entry, according to the policemen who turned up. To my mind, it's daft. There's a tool you can get that breaks the window, almost soundlessly, that's much better. And who's not going to notice a car driving around with the door half open?

By the way, thanks for the sympathy votes guys. Much appreciated.

I understand your pain had 3 entrys in my car now getting used to it. unfurtunley a screwdriver works just as fine as the key to get in. ( got a nice big hole where the key-hole is supposed to be right now. )

Luckily the suckers who did it had no clue how you start the car without a key they made some tries though wires and shit was hanging out all over the place. Would love to be there next time it happens.

ive never used the tool, but if you break a spark plug and take the porcilin (i dont know how to fucking spell it) and get it wet, when thrown against a car window it creates a chemical reaction with the kevlar (yes they use it in windshields) and the window drops.....dont ask me how i know

I am to the point I am going to get a tazer so if I am around the next time, I can fry the bastered and them beat him while he is down. I figure that is fair considering they always break my shit while I am asleep.

This is why they need to make car alarms more effective. I never pay attention to car alarms simply cause so many people set them off unintentionally.

If a guy tries to break in to my car, it should sound an alarm and additionally sound a position audio wave that causes the thief to be disoriented and in great discomfort. They use these sorts of things for riot control. Walk out of the house, see the guy cringing with his hands to his ears, and call the cops. Guy gets arrested, your car is (mostly) fine.

Sounds a lot better than "BZZ BZZ BZZ BZZ WAA WEE WAA WEE WAA WEE WAEE WEEE WOOOO, WOOO, WOOO, WOOO, BEEP BEEP BEEP BEPP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP"

I almost caught a bunch of knackers/chavs breaking into a car a couple of months ago. It was my neighbours car; they smashed the window in broad daylight and robbed his camera, I came out with the household Hurling stick (our self defence weapon of choice) but the little scumbags high tailed it before i could get anywhere near them. I told the Gardai what they looked like but surprise, surprise ....no arrests were made.

Could've been worse ..could've been my car.

I never had problems with someone stealing my truck (yes i have no car) but I'm glad they wouldnt, that truck is worth more then my house.

Oh that's easy, if you've seen George Romero's "Land of the Dead", you know the answer is Samoa.

From the movie:

Pillsbury: [Motown is hot-wiring a car] Yellow to red!
Motown: What the fuck does a Samoan know about hot-wiring a fucking car?
Pillsbury: 50,000 cars stolen in Samoa every year.
Motown: Well, a million in Detroit.
Pillsbury: Detroit has 50 million cars. Samoa, 50,000. Every one stolen.

Maybe the solution would be to take all the cars away from British citizens, if you guys have such a car theft problem.

Of course I do not mean this but ole' Vilham knows as to what I am referring.

my brother's car was broken into this year...murphy at his finest.

trying to save a few bucks, we would do his brakes at my place. long story short: he gets the parts and drives pretty far to get here. manufacture placed the wrong parts in the box he bought, so we were unable to do the work. he parks at my place and loses a $250 window and his stereo. get correct parts locally (more expensive) and finish work. totally defeated the purpose of saving money.
