Got woken up this morning to find this!
Smashed passenger side window and nicked the sat nav.
My brothers car that was parked a few drives away had the same done!
The badgers better hope I dont find them or they will be needing the
sat navs to find their way to hospital!

tip: wipe the O mark left on the window off after every use as this screams out that you have a sat nav

tip 2: set your "home" location to your nearest cop shop or any location close enough to home to point you in the right direction, but not your actual home address as if they knick your sat nav + house keys they know exactly where you live

shouldnt leave them in car, i always take my sat nav out and its stand and wipe the circle from the window as they are all signs that you could have a expensive piece of equiptment in your car at hands reach.

I know how you feel

Although mine was done at work, I always take my stuff out when I get home. Well, when I had stuff anyway

not really why go through the effort of trying to nick a 100 quid stereo when youve got a 150+ sat nav sat there, my mate had his sat nav nicked ,left his cd player his wallet his cds and his mp3 player (this was hidden in the back) but point is just quick and easy

Not really because if they rob it from your house, they are going to know where you live anyway!

Police wont do anything

Other than tell you the obvious info that you shouldnt leave £150+ worth of satnav that they can snatch in under 10 seconds on show
