4x4 theft warning by Hound Dog on Tue May 22, 2012 10:02 pm
As some of you know I work for the fire service.
Have been called to a car fire today it turns out that a gang of thieves have been stealing 4x4's to rip out free standing cash points in the Hampshire so please make sure your frontys are locked up nice and safe in the Hampshire area.

The bad point is they are burning out the stolen 4x4's

On a little plus point they have ripped out 2 in my area and got no money out of them.






Admin please move if in the wrong place.

Hmm I'm not a million miles from the Hampshire area and quite often go to the Asda a Farnborough :lol: It's interesting that they are using four wheel drives to do it, :shock: Sounds like a new trend ... :roll:
My Fronty thinks its a grown-up Tonka Toy [how sad is that] ?

They could put my 2.2 on the front of yours and together they might just loosen the brick work.

I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.
