Kind of f*cks the electrics up. Those keys ain't cheap to replace you know.
You mean with the central locking business? I had that with my car but just got a spare cut when I bought the car without the electrics.

Cost a bit but compared to having your car stolen...

Same here. Leave the proper key hidden locked in the car, and the one i take into the surf with me just unlocks the doors. So yeah, they could still steal the car - but it looks pretty sus breaking windows and all..

Yes he looked just like that! Blended right in at the beach!!
Got to keep your sense of humor! :D
The car was insured but I won’t get enough to replace it.
The stuff inside was not valuable so it was a waste of their time really .
I’m just pissed off at myself for being stupid and pissed off at all the crap we’ve got to go through so some little arsehole can get his drugs!
But life can deal you a crap hand every now and again but my 11year old came home yesterday and told us about one of her friends that has Leukemia so that sure helped put thing in perspective!!

Thought about this 'n I don't no if this is the right place or the right thing to do but I'm offering a $500 cash reward for information that gets me my vehicle and contents back in good condition! No questions asked.
