Thieving Scumbags.
« on: May 10, 2017, 06:17:16 PM »
Why?





'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Set/sit. Bought/brought FFS. Bloody Americans.

Seeing the 'before' pic brings it into perspective.  I feel your pain, having been there myself.  Bastards - the ragheads have got the right idea; chop their thieving hands off.
 I suppose the insurance firm will just BER it and that'll be that.  More thieves!

Sadly thieves are getting forensically aware, burnt out vehicles can offer no fingerprint or DNA evidence, so practically no chance of getting caught. So sorry for your loss, it's like losing a family member having owned it so long. I assume the seat base was fibreglass looking at what's left of it? :'( :'( :'(
If it's got tits or wheels, it's hassle, if it's got both, RUN!!!

Bastards, makes my blood boil!  >:( Sorry for your loss. :(
I had an attempted break in at my garage, the muppets didn't get in but it cost me a new garage door. I have now got a system in place that means you can't open the door from outside, the garage has an alarm and I made bars for the windows. I still lock the bikes up with 2 chains and a disc lock and chained to an object. You just have to make life more difficult for them so they move on to some other poor bugger!
I'm not a complete idiot.....some parts are still missing.
