Went out to my car this morning and found my self Click Here and Minimise Got broken into last night. Missing 2 licenced radios and my Garmin 276c all hidden in the glove box. There were other things that could have been lifted  however I think that it was a case of smash window, open glove box, nick whatever and run. If only they had looked in the cool box there was £1,500 cash in there 
Autoglass replaced the window this afternoon and finished just in time for the car to be collected by LRA as the EGR valves have gone.
For the first time LRA actually said it made sense not to send out an engineer as the car clearly needed recovering. Waiting for enterprise to deliver a D3 In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

As a side issue, is the alarm set to use the horns rather than the weedy siren?

They are  aren't they  Hope you get some of the kit back ...might be worth looking on ebay to see if some entels appear 
I'm really surprised at you leaving all that money in the fridge though Andrew

Arse!
Hard luck Andrew
Any chance they caught their wrists on the window on the way out?
Good Q on the horn - weedy or not? A happy childhood ... is the worst possible preparation for life.

Not that bothered TBH. What really annoyed me was the fact that I got up at 05.00 to go to Hammersmith then on to Norwich and ended up going nowhere. I could have had a lie in. There were several other cars nailed in the area last night.
Oh DG The money helps to keep the beer cool when the fridge is not running.

Horn and we never heard it  Having said that the thief clearly did as he/she didn't hang about. otherwise he/she would have spotted the spare key in the front cup holder What was strange was the fact that they placed a wheel cw tyre on the floor under the door. We have come to the conclusion that the thief must have been very short as he/she needed something to stand on to reach into the car 
Oh and no I don't sleep walk before you start In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
