that's hellish.
Is it just the glass broken? No panel damage I hope. Did they take anything? Previously..

Happened to me not long ago - not the FFRR - my insurance treated it the same as a windscreen - so just the excess and didn't impact my no claims - still not great, but better than it could have been.

I was finding bits of glass for ages though.

It's a right %^&%$^ mess - glass everywhere. Can't get the window fixed until Tuesday!?! Essentially vehicle now un-driveable

They stole a small camera and the dashcam (neither were on display). Looks like a 'chance it and see' job as they had the cubby box open (nothing in there) and missed the ipod in the top part of the cubby!?!

Very public place, so a bit shocked really

Feel violated but luckily they DIDN'T take anything with my address on....

Window surround is damaged, think they tried using a sledgehammer  Land Rover Addict

Don't we know it, took ages to tear off the big chunks so it could be driven home. No perps blood = no police visit  Land Rover Addict

On the *plus* side I did have the honour of getting some pictures of wildlife in action!

I sympathise I have had windows smashed in the past and its a real PITA, one time a mate of mine actually caught a chap in his car casually flicking through the CDs in the glove box.

All casual like, he asked him what he was up to. Aparently was waiting for a friend...... Fortunately it was in the carpark of the pub he used to work at which was 2 mins walk from the cop shop.

So he dragged the little out of the car by his hair and dragged him on his arse and dumped him in the cop shop. Personally I would have beat the living out of him There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I have all the used parts you need on the shelf if required sir? Glass, trims & rubbers etc... Let me know if i can help?

Thanks Craig,

I'll see what needs sorting after the insurers finish their autoglass repair

I have no doubt new rubbers and trim will also be needed. Land Rover Addict

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

Sorry to read this also

As they have the Dash cam, the wont need anything on with your address on it

Just keep a good eye out for strange cars hanging around your place from now on for a while. If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Sorry about your woes. There are some immature b s about.
However I love your pic's, red kite pic's 1 &2 if I'm not mistaken and a heron pic3.
Have spotted a couple of pairs of red kite in our area this last year or so, giving the buzzards a run for their money.
hope you get sorted mate.

They didn't have the toughened on arrival, but after seeing the messy aftermath of them trying and managing to break it I went for the standard shatter solution, at least the little squares are easier to clean up than the glass dust and nasty shards! Test drive = just as quiet tbh!

One side effect - after 18 months of not being washed .... this happened!!!
