SJ broken into

Hope they catch the little fuckers!

I've delocked my passenger door and the drivers has an aftermarket jobbie on it. Still shit!

Im gutted for you about 4 years ago some kids broke into mine, they damaged the door locks, broke the crook lock off & pulled the steering wheel & broke the standard steering lock, luckily a neighbour disturbed them. I'm under no illusion that if they hadn't been disturbed they'd have took my SJ ran it into the ground & probably burnt it out. To be honest I'm still angry about it now, how dare they? The selfish bastards. I just hope you feel the same about your SJ now, I know it changed my feelings towards the hobby!

It's changed my feelings towards my Zuk! It's like a part of me. Its not brilliant, its rough round the edges and the body work is a mess and bodged together in parts. But its mine and i built it!

Yeah my SJ is now hiden away. I wont leave it out side this place any more. I just got home and the neighbours house is taped off and there is police and csi taking pictures and notes. I'm not sure whats gone on but looks like somebody has eaither broken into there house or tried to nick there camper van or both? The joys of living in the city! and this is suppose to be a nice area.

The locks on my SJ are crap they managed to open every door without causing any damage.I have got some of those solex locks that i got off a car i scraped many years ago, but wheather i can find them and the keys is a different matter.

I have taken some temporary measures. If any one trys to brake into the SJ now, they will probably get licked to death :lol: .
