Sheet indeed.

I bet they were "City" fans. The "Devils" would never do this sort of thing ;-0

Nice to see they are encouraging the c*nts to help themselves. Easy peasy, why work for a living?
nothing changes

when my cossie was stolen (4th or 5th time) and stripped, they left it in a farmers field, I had just polished it and it was covered in the criminals finger prints

i told the police this and they couldn't give a rats ass

How does the Anti-Hijacking thing work?? i seem to remember this type of setup on a mates Cossie years ago. It used to work if the drivers door had been opened whilst the engine was running. He had to 'disable' it by a rocker switch down beside his knee. Not sure if the Audi system is the same. Would be interested in finding out though. :bigblink:

Nah the Waltac thing will simply be Vagcom auto central locking enable when the car reaches 5 mph.

Know what you mean though Alex - one of our Le Mans posse had an Impreza with a binary code to enter everytime a door was entered. The engine would cut out after 30 seconds if it wasn't entered.

Well in Ireland, they are changing the law to allow you to kill burgalers if defending yourself.

Maybe you should be allowed to do the same to a car jacker?

I know Will and can reccomend his work, he skimmed my front discs down as they were only 25% worn and I was getting vibration through the marks on them. He has a unit not so far away from me and is a specialist in high end cars, he's just dropped a an RS6 engine and a quatro system into an old 85.

I too was in Manchester a couple of weeks ago as I got mine from the dealership. I did think about this when I was driving through the city!
