Sorry to hear that, it seems to be becoming an ever familiar story. They should be locked up.

my friend does magicar alarms

they page you when someone gets near it, and it warns them away. since having it ive had no more attacks (i had two in two weeks at xmas)

i get a fair few pages tho, but i live opposite a school and the mums park here in our private car park.
when the kids or them get close the alarm beebs a few loud times and you can watch them tell their kids stay away from that car. :D

but if someone is set out to damaging ur motor they will do it i suppose. but if my alarm goes off like that i just hope it would limit what they can do.

magicar aint thatcham or anything tho, because you can start the engine from the alarm.

wat a bunch of wankers man!! sorry to here this padi listen now depending on where u live m8 and how far ur car is from ur house!! do this as follows ..................

Firstly set a trap something on the car that makes it knickable do something real silly so it looks soooooooo easy to knick set up some survalance or even just keep a watch all night urself!!
but trust me they will come back if it looks takeable etc , then when they do come back u catch em in the act which in turn will wind u up even more thus wanting to break everybone in there god damn body!!
now dont ask me how i know but i know this works me n a m8 proved this a while back.......... winkeye winkeye SCARE EM is a understatment m8... :cool:

yer but can u realy be bothered?
when this bird was getting this bloke to do mine over my cousin said for me to sit in my mums car (blacked out windows n all that ;)) and wait for him to come back. to be honest i would of fallen asleep, i work ya no.

good luck if you do

worse thing about mine getting done over, is the girl was watching them do it, then she walked past mine and looked through my kitchen window. cheeky fuck.
