the lower section of Ashville road between Cavandish Road & Park road North has been closed by the police, its due to an inserdent during the night ? any one know what happened

The police helicopter was out for ages last night

I was trying to photograph the helicopter, it was around there for a long time in a still hover.

car fire

Another one - someone's on a spree, I may go for a coast around with my video camera on the the car over the next few nights.

School f'in holidays

My my you do have it bad today DD, get out of bed the wrong side .

LOL chill mate!!

Glad to know my cars are kept in a private secure car park then!! There is a lot of car arson attacks etc lately!

That just means they they drive it straight through the gates on the way out

How do they get through the gates though lol. You go under the building (which is also secure access) to get to the carpark lol, and there is no gates or fecnes etc for anyone to climb over lol.

Mind you I think overall it would be too much hassle, forgetting the gates, they have a top-end alarm and immobiliser to contend with as well, you cant start the car without the fob being within 1 metre range.

Scary thing is though, it probably gives them more incentive to rob my place and take the car keys and electronic gate fob that way... just hope they use their sense and hide their faces as theres CCTV everywhere haha!

Forgot about the CCTV, was just about to say to read the sticker you find on the windscreen in the morning ... sorry afternoon

Who would want to rob a Rover?

Bless. Having never owned a Rover or indeed any British marque from the looks of things, and having never owned a luxury car of any nature, and having owned a Nova hahahaha and every other CHAV car there is, whilst being too sheepish to say what car you own at present, I think we can forgive you little childish mind.

And pwnage of the century, the car involved in this incident was a Range ROVER haha quality.

Now run along back to bed to dream about your Fords and blondes little man.

;-)

Same night, a friend of mine disturbed some lads pushing her car down the road, trying to hot-wire it. They'd bent the door back to get in. That was Claughton area. We also know of another car nicked about 20 minutes earlier in the area - probably same people. Not school-age though - they were in their 20s. She thought she'd have to scrap the car but its been saved.

Possibly same 'creatures' involved...?

no marks !

Oi, Rover's are awesome!

Mines an sd1 please

Nice car!

LOL hit the nerve right at the centre.

Owned a Rover and it was the worst 3 days of my life.

Yes I owned a Nova back in 2001, was a tidy GTE lookalike. Done me at the time.

And true the SD1 is the only great Rover imo after the superb 20min drive through London back in the late 80's/early 90's when they had to take the transplant.
