Hello,

Dan here I live on Hindmans Road.

I've been speaking to neighbours who have picked up some of the pieces from what appears to be an attempted theft of my car around 2pm on Monday.

The driver side window is smashed and the panels around the ignition put out of place and scratched.

Some have suggested it's by the same guy who has apparently tried to get into cars on other nearby roads.

If anyone has more information on this please let me know - the description has been a white male 'kid' in balaclava.

Thanks for all the help so far - I only got this car home last week so a very unfortunate incident.

Dan

P.S. If any particularly good value garages around please let me know - I have pretty much spent it all on buying the car in the first place

Very sorry to hear this.

Have you reported it to the police, particularly if there have been other similar incidents near you?

I don't know what is "good value", but the people at Dell Autos in Hansler Road (off Lordship Lane) are  reliable and helpful.

Yes reported to police - case already 'closed' though..

In the end I'm fixing via insurance which will affect price down the line but simplest way to get it taken away and fixed.

I've got hold of some video of same kid trying a car on Underhill Road - white, slight build, Arsenal windbreaker, balaclava. Local policing team have been made aware so we shall see..

    • That sounds thoughtful and lovely of you. I would personally go inside the shop and ask and see what they would prefer. I am sure they will be touched that you/we feel his loss within the community.

    • Another recommendation for Danny here!  After carrying out extensive work on our property in 2018, we have constantly had problems  with the newly built roof.  Then followed numerous fixes and bodges by the builders then by other so called 'experts' and professionals' charging extortionate amounts and / or giving guarantees that amounted to nothing.  Lots of 'it could be this and that etc...'  Sadly our tale of woe is not uncommon. After getting a number of people to look at the roof - the consensus was that the whole roof needed redoing (it was clear that by now the roof looked a mess with multiple things done wrong or poorly).  We obtained quotes and decided to go with Danny - his was the most competitive but it was not overriding factor behind why we did.  Danny made clear what the quote covered and where there might be extra work required as he got to it (this was fairly minor). He was easy to get a hold of and responded promptly and he was also happy to offer up refences which I did contact and all were happy to vouch for him. Minor downside was that we had a bit of a wait, but it was worth it.  When work started I was kept updated with progress and photos.  Issues were dealt with, and although I'm not an expert by any means the appearance of the work was top.  Most importantly we are leak free! I'd have no issues at all recommending Danny.  Feel free to PM me.  
    • I'm heartbroken to read this. He was such a nice guy. I'd like to lay some flowers outside the shop, does that sound appropriate?
