Hi, I am posting re; my Stolen BMW 320 Msport last week from the Chigwell Road area, Woodford Green West Essex.

Its only since its gone I've been hearing its apparently quite easy to steal pre-2011 models.

It had no tracker, and I had only had a few weeks and left it parked on a quiet residential road overnight.

Is there any tips n how I could possibly find out anything - so far the Police haven't had any leads yet and I just feel so angry and upset, just wondered if there is any advice of info anyone could give me.

Also any tips of securing my next car to the max frown

Anything that could lead toits recovery would happily pay reward as I heard its happening a lot and there are groups targeting the area so thought someone may know something #chigwell #Essex #Woodford #bmw #stolenbmw
Thanks Guys.

Well a few local people have told me, so its hear say but apparently yes, groups are coming from outside the area to target Chigwell/West Essex.

It was parked near the 3 Jolley Wheelers where I left it as went for a drink and went in a friends car as was have a couple and stayed over while I was there, and went back to the car to collect it and it was gone - I 100% locked it, I checked as knew I was leaving it but was just off the Chigwell Road on a quiet residential bit. I don't live here but know the area as friends do and come here often, thought it was safe.

No Glass, nothing... I am told they can get blank fob keys and can even drive away using an ipad, sadly only found this out since getting it.

Just gutted frown

I asked a friend in the trade what usually happens and he said it will probably be stripped, in parts and long gone by now as that's what these thieves do, or shipped out the next day but obviously holding a tiny bit of hope in case there are any leads. Loved it so much, took me ages of searching the South West, London, and finally got it in the Midlands and then 2 weeks later it was taken... Wishing I'd stuck with the Astra I had before as its really upset me. Sounds silly but worked hard to get that, and someone just taking it really has upset me. Insurance hopefully will move along quickly but it put you off buying another a bit, but next time Ill make sure I get a tracker installed and what ever else is out there.

Good thought, though Im sure that plate came off half way down the road.

Is it worth putting Chassey Numbers?
