Argh, work for the damm money like everyone else in stead of stealing it, *ssholes.

Plans on extra safety John?

Sucks...

Well, I have the same small unpleasant issues about once every few months. Not from attempt to steal, but rather drunk student having "fun"

Last year: Mirror completely removed with force + damage to electical system: 400€, followed by forceful removal of window cleaners (how do you call those in english?) -> 250€. followed by a giant dent in the back of my car, and about 2 dozen of scratches and small dents....

Pleasure of living in a student-area

And unfortunately not a company car, but my own. Now I came to the point where I stop repairing unless really required.

Propably were intending to steal rims and tyres and other removable parts in that case.

And in that small possibility that police can catch them they don't get practically punished at all, or at most short vacation to "government hotel".
Old fashioned punishments would work much better, like whipping a'la Singapore or week in stocks in middle of marketplace.

Bummer.
I didn't get an omnium on my car, but when I see this, I'm thinking about it.

Did they dust for fingerprints ?
