My sister came back yesterday to find her patio doors smashed and house ransacked and keys and the S4 gone. Ended up in Leeds recovered (30 miles away). This was middles of the day, brazen as hell.
Probably going to try to return it now, absolute scumbags.
How did they know she was out/going out?Probably going to try to return it now, absolute scumbags.
This was Oldham area.

Would your insurance pay out? You deliberately put your car where it was damaged so wouldn't they claim nothing to do with them?
They would pay out but it would be a claim on his own insurance.Most insurers I know of will not pay out for;
any deliberate damage caused to your car by anyone insured under your policy.
or even any death, injury, loss, or damage caused directly or indirectly as a result of any deliberate act by you or any person driving your car.
...Thus any damage caused by someone deliberately moving their car to prevent someone driving off (even scum) will not be covered.

Bradford S3 robbery caught on cam.
Owner said she leaves keys on the stair's every night for this very reason, so they don;t come upstairs!
With it being the Daily Mail, I'm surprised they didn't find a way of making the victim sound responsible given her foreign-sounding surname.Bradford S3 robbery caught on cam.
Owner said she leaves keys on the stair's every night for this very reason, so they don;t come upstairs!
This statement made me chuckle somewhat - 99% of the population wouldn't know the difference between an S3 and a 1.6TDI. Unless she was bragging to everyone about her "high powered car" (which isn't actually that high powered by today's standards), and that's what got her in this mess in the first place.
