That´s sad to know.
I hope you recover your cars soon.

Best Regards, Maika

Someone was watching your place no doubt. Sucks. But this why we have insurance, thank god. Good luck on getting it all worked out.

Do you still have the M5 and M3 CSL?

Big Windy · 07-16-2008, 07:56 AM

Damn...that really sucks. They must have been watching. Where were you when it happened? Did they steal anything else in your house or just the keys?

PLAYON · 07-16-2008, 08:09 AM

Wow man, hope they are both replaced or returned safely!

sg///M3 · 07-16-2008, 08:28 AM

Sorry to hear about your troubles. Do you have BMW Assist? Maybe they can help track down the location of your car.

booforty · 07-16-2008, 09:04 AM

That is awful news. really sorry to hear that. I hope they catch the buggers

ihyln · 07-16-2008, 09:07 AM

Wow that really sucks! I'm hoping for the best...

SlammedR8 · 07-16-2008, 09:08 AM

they went in your house and stole the keys?

Big Windy · 07-16-2008, 09:12 AM

+1.

All the best and good luck.

Eurotrash8 · 07-16-2008, 09:29 AM

That is really shitty.

I hope they don't find the cars because then the insurance will replace it with a new one. I wouldnt want it back.......its been malested!

big fra · 07-16-2008, 09:29 AM

A few updates!They have found my car via the tracker so that's at least one good thing.Car was found in a lovely expensive area called Bothwell(Not far from Douglas Park BMW® might i add!)and their has been no signs of abuse to the car,seems they park it in a nice area for a day or 2 then wait and see if it has a tracker fitted and if not come back and take it to chop shop/container!My wife and i were in the house with our month old daughter so we didnt have the alarm for the house on as we are running up and down the stairs all night.If the alarm was on and it did go off what would i have done?Their would have been at least 3 of them and im no fighter.I could possibly have scared them off by running down the stairs with my boxers on and my blubber flyin about all over the place

Sorry to hear that. Lets hope that they DONT recover your vehicles. I would'nt want my car back after it had been stolen. Insurance will provide you with two new cars.

Did you have a tracker fitted to any of them?

JEllis · 07-16-2008, 09:32 AM

hahahaha.... glad to hear you got it back!

DonM3 · 07-16-2008, 09:33 AM

You answered my question as I was writing my post

PLAYON · 07-16-2008, 10:42 AM

Did they find the X5?

asif163 · 07-16-2008, 11:01 AM

At least you got one of the cars back- what about the other one?

booforty · 07-16-2008, 11:02 AM

Where's the X5?
