VW passat break in, last night, Nunhead

[londonhan]

Just wondered if anyone else experienced any issues with their VW's last night - ours was broken in to outside our house, I only realised this morning when I noticed all the windows of the car were open.

On closer inspection, it seems they have taken out the lock from the driver side. Turns out this is a real oversight in VW security - all you have to do is shove a screwdriver in the lock and push, and all the windows come down and the alarm turns off!! Brilliant!

Anyway, there was literally nothing of any value in the car, I imagine to the disgust of the little sh*t who did it, apart from all our CD's which I then found scattered at the bottom of the road.

Anyway, I was just interested to see if anyone else had a similar thing happen recently.

Worry is that this post will prompt a flood of attacks on the local VW community. Now that everyone has been told what to do. Always keep one bit of the key information out.

good grief. For your information, I got the method from a publically viewable forum on VW passats. 'Now everyone has been told what to do'. Please, blame me if there is a spate of VW break ins in the area following my post. I'm sure it would be down to that entirely.
