I'd kindly reccomend you edit your origional post Apz1, as to not let other people know how they broke into (Mods will ask you to anyway..)

But yes, very unfortunate. =(

Edited it... my car is also making a weird electronic intermittent sound.
am i right in pressuming they tried to start it which has resulted in the sound and me not being able to start it?

Im guessing the people who did it wernt experts as it looks like they tried a couple of ways to open it. they also knicked a pretty cheap ripped coat and my MJ CD (the only cd in the car at the time lol), an alright pair of shoes and a completly knackered old phone of mine.

Also do you reckon it would be worth claiming for? probably needs a new door panel (although it wouldn't be absolutely necessary) stereo, cost to get car running again, shoes (£60), coat (£50), and tbh i cant remember what else might of been in my car i will have to have a good think tomorrow.

Can't you try claiming it off insurance?

I wouldn't bother, insurance is just a scam and you'll more than likely pay more than the items. Sorry to hear it dude, the more of these I see, the more I reckon I should depin and delock.

Did they do anything to the alarm/imobilser :detective:

Only reason i can think that it wouldnt start after a break in...

has the engine problem been sorted? have you double checked the ignition barrel to see that nothing has been cut/adjusted with a screwdriver
