My dad leaves home at 4:30am so he doesn't dead lock the door behind him. Therefore all they had to do was pull the handle down (disabling the dead locks), put a screw driver in the door and pop the catch. Plastic doors are soft as sh-t so getting a little screw driver in took him 30 seconds.

My brother-in-law left the house next door at 5:50am and the car went off the drive at 5:30am, he thought I was at the gym, which isn't unusual for me. So I went out at 7am to an empty driveway.

Looks like he pulls off the drive then waits for another to pull up behind him before leaving? Fucking scummers :bad-words: . I remember Seanos ctr being nicked and involved in a robbery?....if this happens to yours it's probably the best chance you have of them being caught - if the job goes wrong. Otherwise I don't see how any of these people get caught :-x even with the video footage.

I wonder what he would have done if the keys hadn't been easily found? Whether they all come with the view to a confrontation for the keys or whether he'd have just left without the car?? Probs best you didn't find out.

Man it must be gutting seeing your hard work drive off like that!!!

Its just metal end of day, hopefully insurance will go smoothly and you can get another one....

Makes me think twice about parking my car outside my house....

Best thing to do is hide your keys (even though you shouldn't have too)

You think? I reckon hang them on a hook by the front door, if they're there for the car, i'd rather them just take it and f**k off, rather than have a confrontation.

Disklok is an excellent deterrent.
