some chavvy lad came round asking if i want to buy some bits for it, I was still in wales, well sat in a low lowder with kevs old cabby on the back. sister naturally was dumb and didnt think anything of it, he was on foot as well. Just really bothered now :@ really don't need my baby going missing.

Then again, he could come back tonight, and then return tomorrow asking whether you want to buy some parts of your car back? :lol:

i've had some strange person ask the same things, when my nova was in the drive way, that got me rattled so i left the car on axle stands with the battery disconected, i eventually put my car in a garage

I normally swap a couple of the HT Leads around... S'pose you could disconnect battery but if they decide they want a quick look under bonnet to see whats wrong, they'll notice it instantly.

Cheers fella's, I've been doing the ole battery etc dissconnection thing anyways, always do since somebody tried to steal my yellow sr.

He might be somebody i know or know of, but I hate people asking me to buy stuff randomly in the street. In my eyes its just another way to scope things out. Think i might buy a pit bull again and leave him in my car.

best thing is the ht leads one as you will hear them trying to fire it up, that gives you more time to get outside an snap the crack heads neck

instead of swaping the HT Leads you could just take em off ? or get a batter cut off like the rally cars have and mount it under the dash or some thing

They'd notice the HT leads were missing though... if they were in the wrong order they probably wouldn't notice this and try to start the car as normal, but obviously the car wouldn't start - as Phil said, gives you time to run out and say hello to them lol

And also if they see hte HT leads are missing they'll not bother trying to drive it away and just kick it in, steal bits etc... if the first thing they do is try and nick it the engine will just turn over and give you a chance to hear it before they do any serious damage, or scare them off as they've made a noise...

Have a look on the CPC website...theres dummy cctv ( and it DOES work as a deterant ) - if you do obtain one , make sure it points only onto the motor / driveway parking area ( nieghbours can have you for invasion of privacy - even if its a dud ) and put up a warning sign ( by law this must be observed ) that your using cctv. i ,ve watched people walk past my home see the sign , and then look for the cameras . You,ll be surprised at the results. For those who,ll question this , just think - the first thing that comes to mind when you pass cctv is who,s recording you - NOT is that a dummy camera - would you take a gamble ? . I,ve a couple placed at home and alongside security lighting , so far I,ve been lucky.........( hope that doesnt tempt fate .) The motors alarmed n all and has steering batons and gear locks......Its a chuffin shame you cant trust people to leave your property alone.


Its a cheap option.
