Got a knock on the door at half eleven last night, was a cop asking if I had anything to do with a Subaru abandoned in the road outside. "Why yes officer, it's mine"
Lowlife type had got in, punched the ignition barrel out, rolled it off the drive, and down the hill to the corner, and found himself unable to start it and drive away due to the cunning immobiliser designed and fitted by yours truly.
So I still have a car, but until it's repaired I'm a little nervous about it being parked with its ingition hanging out, not that it's going anywhere (double immobilised now!).

If you're looking for a deterrant,
This needs a Facebook login but, this is what happened to my car when some scrote stole a Subaru near me. For reference, my blue Passat was parked up unoccupied next to the kerb at the time.

Horrible feeling when someone's tried to nick your car. At least you still have it though. Happened to be a good few years ago when I had my car in storage. Luckily enough a flat battery meant I kept the car, as it would have gone otherwise.
