Ha, I wish. xdrive 335s and v6 x5s. Also very good cars to be fair. x5s are a bit heavy with all the kit we carry but I'd rather be rammed in that than an Evo.
Back to the point. Believe me prevention is better than cure and its not just a case of 'the insurance and police will sort it'
Its a bad thing that 'individuals' with little driving experience have easy 'access' to high powered cars that are capable of 160mph+
What do you think they use them for? a joy ride? No, usually they use them to commit further crime, burglaries, more victims, more high speed pursuits, more collisions, more casualties, more Police officers putting themselves at risk (do I really need to highlight recent events)
They don't care about you driving the other way on your way back from work, but we do.
Most victims of cloning have recently put pictures of their cars on auto trader or sites like this showing number plates. I know, I've stopped them, they've told me.
So they get stopped by the Police, they get the speeding tickets, they get the Police knocking on their door in the middle of the night questioning them as to why they failed to stop.
We make it far to easy for the crims. They tell me! 'Its easy boss, found the car on a site, the guy even said where he lived. He has a personal plate so it stood out' etc... etc...
Like I said its up to you, we are doing our best and overall we are winning but we could do with your help.
Don't post plates, don't say where you live and what security you have.
CCTV, p.i.r, extra car security and identifying 'dodgy users' on here to the mods, being aware of the car behind you on your way home all good.
Don't be paranoid, just be sensible.
