I needed some kerb damage repairing so took a gamble on a mobile alloy specialist. Bloke arrived bang on time from Liverpool (lovely chap) in his giant van and dilligently set to work. Sitting here quietly I heard a sudden screech of tyres and a crash! Ran out to discover some scumbag had jumped in the van when his back was turned and driven off with the doors wide open, dragging his compressor half way down the road and with my wheel still in the back!!!!! Luckily for me the culprit had taken a corner at speed about half a mile up the road and my wheel had rolled out onto the side of the road. A good Samaritan who'd seen the wheel kindly turned around and retrieved it for me. He'd just finished repairing it and now it has new kerb damage. But to put it in context the poor bloke has lost his van, temporarily his livelihood, wallet, cards, keys, phone and diary of appointments.

This is the really sad part, he's just a normal guy trying to make an honest living - some people have no conscience. Hope he gets back on his feet soon.

Introduce hard labour for all criminals and stop rewarding the filthy scum with benefits and leniency. Argh. Makes me so angry!

Sometimes there really is no justice in the world. I hope he phoned the police and they have put a marker on his van to get it back for him soon. And let's hope karma deals with whoever pinched it.

I hope the thief has a nasty accident!!! What a tosser!!! I blame the government, obviously not enough deterrent..... Makes me laugh! Radio ads saying hide your phone, don't display expensive items.. How about!! If you get caught stealing you lose your bloody hands!!!
And the victim gets to kick your head in and then stone you to death in a public place....
Makes my blood boil!!!!!!!!

Hate to say this guy's. But also helped by leaving the key's in like Phil's brother and the 25k BMW!
It really does only take a second to take them out.

When (if) the Police catch this moron - Hand said Van Owner/Victim a nice Club of some sort - allow him one on one in an interview room with the culprit for 5 minutes - that should do the trick1
If only things were that easy..........!

Mind you that does remind me of another good thing about the Vanquish.
When I took it for its MOT recently,even with the key's in, after 5 minutes the mechanics had to come and ask me how to get it started!

Each time one of these thieving scumbags are caught and sentanced they should
have a finger removed. If they are to dim and stupid to stop stealing eventually
due to the lack of fingers, they will be unable to steal!! Did anyone see Gorden
Ramsay cooking behind bars the other night? He was shocked to be told that the
prisoners HAD to have 5 choices of main course each meal time. Even one of the
interviewed cons said that many of them in there used it as a personal hotel.
