| Attempted spare wheel theft in North Watford | |
Ok, so they were not attempting to thieve from my Defender as I was in the works van (VW Transporter) - but it was an attempt to steal my spare wheel, and I guess if these scrotes are stupid enough to try during broad daylight in a private car park, they'll try anything !!
I was parked up in a customer car park at 1.15pm today, backed up to the rear of an old Shogun - they may have tried to have the underslung spare off that first, but the owner said that it is so rusted on that nothing will shift it. I came out of the customers building to see someone lying under the back of my van, someone shouted, he dropped his spanner/wrench, got up and into a silver/purple '02 plate Citroen Xsara (I have the reg number) and they took off - taking the side out of their car on the way out the car park (the 4" galv gate posts did a good job of it  )
They were gone so quick that I didnt have time to get the reg number, and as I had an armful of gear I couldnt give the scrote the benefit of my steel toecaps!.............they drove off up what is basically a dead end (I didnt realise at the time), so a couple of minutes later they drove back - this time I got the reg number, and shortly after that Herts Police got given it.
As the Police are dealing, I won't post the whole reg number...........but it's an 02 plate Citroen Xsara, ending in MMJ, the near side is battered, and the colour is silvery/purple - hopefully the feds will find it, and the occupants. Td5 110 HD Hardtop.......not quite standard

Not the first as it can be a relative quick and easy gain with the correct tooling......
