Angry Woke up to this today

Went to go down the shops for a paper and found this


Looks like they were only after the scoob. No other cars had been touched.
Appears that the window tinting done its job and stopped them from getting in.

As Steve sats, glad the tints did the trick and you still have the car, but a complete annoyance that the window has been done !!

Try NSEC for a new glass, they may have a car in for breaking at the mo.

I have put her into hibenation at my sisters , out of sight behind electric gates etc .
Seriuosly considering chopping her in for something else that won't attract the little b*****ds for the time being.
We have had her 2 years now without any problems but in the last 6 weeks or so, things have gone a bit wonky round here .
The Mrs had the wing mirrors kicked off her car, the attempted breaking on the Scoob, moped burnt out 10 foot from the girls window and a couple of nights ago some t*****S tried to nick the kids swing out the garden .


Thanks to all for your comments

highly recommend tints! something like this happened on my old car.. hence why i have made it a habit to get 50% tints fitted on the front on every car i own from my mate.. dont care if its illegal.. its barely noticable with the good quality tint that my friend uses, so looks factory standard, never had a problem with it evn when getting pulled..

if getting darker rears on most scoobs i get my mate to do a lighter percentage on the front as the darker rears make the front look darker.. either way my vote is for 50% all around.. no darker than 35%
