It looks a nice car. Only solution is to use public transport. Not an option really for those of us that travel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazes me how there never seems to the a copper around, yet you leave the stadium and there are hundred not doing a great deal outside the ground Them and their traffic warden mates always seem to be about to issue parking tickets though.

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 This is what they took To replace it from the main dealer it's £2000 From a Volkswagon recommended second hand seller it's £1200 Seen a few on Ebay starting at £250, but can't be sure we'd be buying a stolen one We'll keep looking in the hope that a legit one turns up £308 to replace the window Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Owls2k Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Is that a Scirocco R Line? If so, great car! Obviously the scumbag was just jealous of a car they'd never be able to afford themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Owl Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Feel gutted for you and your son Hootie. Crime is getting out of hand. Wev'e had 4 burglaries at Grenoside in the last week. There are still people out there wanting to take a softly softly approach. The do gooders do my head in. Either flog the barstewards in public or bring back the stocks.

Whitecap Owl Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 The problem is that (over here at least) the pawn brokers don't give a rats a$$ where the stolen stuff came from - they will give the guy $50 for it and then flip it in his store for a couple of hundred... Usually junkies stealing from cars but this one looks like the guy knew what he was doing right down to cutting the wires and disconnecting the unit without causing any damage... gutted for you mate....

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted April 10, 2019 Author Share Posted April 10, 2019 My son hasn't had a lot of luck with cars We bought him his first one a 2007 Fiat Punto, he had it 6 months, it had to go for repairs 6 times in those 6 months We decided to get rid, and bought him a 2011 Fiesta, he had that around 2 years but it wasn't without it's problems, he had to swerve to miss a head on collision when a lunatic came around a corner on the wrong side of the road, he hit the kerb damaging two alloys. He then had an accident when he was waiting to turn right into the Supertram depo, and someone ran into the back of him while he was stationary He bought this Scirrocco himself, he's had it 18 months and loves the car, but someone booted in one of the fog lights a couple of months ago, and then this He was talking about trading it in next year for a Focus RS, he told me last night that there's no point in having nice cars, other people damage them I told him to look at my car, a 2012 Astra, it doesn't stand out, I've had it 6 years, it doesn't draw admiring glances, it looks quite boring, but it's low mileage at just under 40,000, it's paid for and it's yet to let me down He said his next car will be something that doesn't stand out so much like an ordinary Focus I think it's crap when you work for your money but you have to base your choices upon, will other people want to take it if I buy it I suppose it's the world we live in Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

My missus now picks me up after the game so as not to take the risk anymore. We live in Doncaster now so I might see if anyone runs a minibus or anything, trouble is he works some Saturdays We've always come in his car because he doesn't drink, and I sometimes have a pint We'll be coming in my car from now on, so I won't be drinking I looked at getting him insured for my car, but the policy doubles, he's still only 22 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

True There were some really nice cars parked there, and no other car was touched, so I believe it was targeted, some chancer, maybe not even local, was probably driving around the estate looking for a Scirroco.
