Thieving scum!








Went to pick up Mazda MX5 from the body repairers in Wolverhampton this week (has been there since September, with one thing and another not been able to pick it up until now). Found it had been broken into last week - they got in through rear window, opened the boot and pinched the battery. Because it is a vinyl window in the soft top they ripped apart with a knife and because they also damaged the roof I need to replace the whole hood - £260 to replace for a £40 battery! Plus takes arond 5 hours (at least for me) to replace the hood, along with much skinning of knuckles and twisting of limbs to get into the contorted positions necessary to undo the host of screws and remove the rivets holding it in. Only words to describe my feelings about them are definitely not repeatable here!
