Thieving scum...

Post by EarL »

For everyone living in the Cardiff area, please be on your guard.

Last night at approximately 4.15am, my garage was broken into and several things taken from there. The list of items are shown below. If anyone gets offered any, please let me know on the following telephone number: 029 2073 6109 or 07880 970612.

1 x GReddy e-Manage
1 x GReddy Profec e-01 Boost controller
1 x Turbo Technics Stage I CT20 turbo (was on the bench while I renewed a couple of gaskets).

Thanks guys,

EarL.

Alert the police of the items if you haven't already. Keep an eye out on Ebay for them to be put up for sale too!!!!
They will only be able to sell them for the car they were made for.......
Some people were just born losers...sorry about that mate.....my garage was broken into...luckily my car wasn't in it at the time but they pinched my tools etc....
Nothing is safe anymore.... :(

Thanks guys,

They took a couple of mountain bilkes, some of my tools, a pair of small Sony speakers and a small radio CD that my missus uses when she works in there. Luckily, my car which was in there at the time, wasn't damaged.

Sad part of it is, I can't claim for the electronics (e-Manage, Profec e-01) as they were neither in the car, so are not covered by the car's policy, nor by the house and contents as they are car parts! :evil:

Gutted! :(

Can you remember if they had part numbers at all?
If so and you know what they were and you do come across them being advertised then keep an eye out......
They might even register on here and try and sell them......keep a look out in mags like banzai, c*ap power...erm max power, fast car etc etc......browse their internet adverts for quick access...
put the part numbers on here and let us know.....again if you know what they were......
what goes around, comes around...they'll get their come uppance....someone must have seen them make off with all that gear....passers by, milkman, must be someone...

Oh dear, I'm sorry to hear that mate.
I can get you a shot gun if you want to wire it up to the garage door :evil:


I think I'd get put away if I caught anyone doing that.
I'm not sure why people keep on with the Chav thing though; personally I'm getting fed up with the name so many people are lumped in to the Chav bracket.

In my book they're just dirty thieving scum with too much mouth, no style or class, Oh and did I mention I get an urge to stand over them and repeatedly smashed their brains in with brick.
When ever I go anywhere near them I can feel their eyes scanning for things they can steal from my car and try and incorporate the part onto their 1.1 saxo that they borrow from mummy.
Is it me or do these guys get attracted to corner shops like moths to a flame, and the little chavs all ask, ere mate get me some fags while your in there, these kids are about 9 years old and when I proceed to tell them no they seem to have a strong opinions about my mother. WTF is all that about.

Should there not be a law that allows us to beat such children, even if it is only once.


Anyway after all that, can anyone tell me if that nicotine gum works :lol:

Sorry to hear about your break in, I hope you get it all sorted.
