thieveing badgers decided to break into my car last night, un-expected as a live in a quite village nicked an ipod touch that was in the glovebox(no use to them as a password is needed to get on it which i have&they do not lol), 2 boxes of c.ds worth 30 quid and a tenner that was in the ashtray. oh and a football . pretty gutted how easy they got in though just levered the top of the door open and unlocked it just thought id share that with you. get your corsa's alarmed and dont leave anything of value in your motor

Gutting mate.
Dont mean to add to the pain but all iPods can be flashed with new software and basically wipes the old memory including tracklistings and passwords.

I leave my Corsa unlocked... If i ever see someone that may break in, i'll just tell them that it's unlocked however there is nothing in there for them to nick..... unless they want some Kleeneze products or a bucket of fresh air

Anyone whos going to break into a car probably wouldnt have a clue how to get that done or even know that it can be done.

Well there not gonna just bin it cos it has a software password, They'll try and get it removed.
Either that , The person they sell it to will.

Unlucky mate That's a common way into the Corsa, just bend the door back and pull up the lever!

My sport got the nifty deadlock system so even if they bent the door open they cant unlock it, can only be unlocked with key in drivers door lock barrel. Only way in is smash a window but that would wake the whole street up so all in all a good system.
