We had our LR stolen Monday night/Tuesday morning, from right under our bedroom window, Crook lock fitted, mega loud alarm and immobiliser.
Very clever thieves.
They take a headlight out to disable the alarm, don't know what they did with the crook lock, then must have pushed it down the road. Then took the bonnet off so that they could fiddle with whatever. Took the ignition out, sorted the steering lock and then tried to start it. The immobiliser took over and LR wouldn't go so thankfully we still have it. although it has had to be garaged to repair the locks, replace bits etc, and of course we have to pay the excess and the claim goes on our insurance.
Quite a few have gone locally in the last 3/4 months.
Moral of the story - get an immobiliser fitted.
