    Bought some locking wheel nuts last week and went to fit them but foud tat someone had already tried to nick the wheels, causing over 400 worth of damage by breaking off the cover seal (under the door sill). I then fitted the wheel nuts thinking that would be it but they came back, tried again and kicked in the front wing (in frustration, I assume). Another 1000 damage and a totaly paranoid me. Car is now parked over half an hours walk away (they are obviously targeting the Golf) and I'm a nervous wreck.
    If ANYONE knows of any lock up garages or secure areas in the Clifton area then I am after one URGENTLY! They may have given up now but I'm not willing to find out. Considered just selling it but I like it too much.
    If anyone's been offered R32 wheels, I'd be keen to hear as I will immediately deck anyone who offers me any. Same if I see an older Golf with them.

    if you park near your house, can you not have CCTV pointing at it?

    do you park in the road?

    I do, but it's not a fixed space.
    All other cars seem to be fine.
    A tricky one indeed.

    FinallygotmyGti - I'm actually going to be a bi super cautious and just say "near the Suspension Bridge"
    Andy - Deeply, deeply unfunny.
    If any non R32 has R32 wheels it's an almost dead cert that they are nicked.
    If I see anyone with them I will aks where they got them.
    If the reply is not 100% legit, I will deck them.

    It was fine in London though - No trouble at all.
    Weird thing is, my insurance dropped a lot when I moved here!
