Burns Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 "hello, is this your car out here in the middle of the road" that's one way to shit you up i'd just popped in, so i hadn't put my steering lock on the fezza, went out and someone'd rolled it off my driveway and into the road there's no damage, and they couldn't get it started (i'm sneaky with electrics) but it's put the wind up me, me heart's going 10 to the dozen... so, she's back on the driveway, stop lock on, immobilised and i'm gonna sort the alarm fault tomorrow sitting here keeping an eye out with my little metal stick in my lap, just waiting

Ratters Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 you gotta be so careful, in the middle of the afternoon too glad you got a few tricks on it & the immobiliser ps, use the steering lock
Deano1351 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 You didnt forget to put the handbrake on did you!! I had to avoid a car once that rolled off a driveway coz they never put the handbrake on

ZetecVan 2.0 Posted October 16, 2007 Report Posted October 16, 2007 You didnt forget to put the handbrake on did you!! I had to avoid a car once that rolled off a driveway coz they never put the handbrake on That happened to me at my in-laws. It was a brand new car that I'd had less than a week!! Luckily it was a quiet cul-de-sac.

Burns Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Posted October 16, 2007 don't go as far as bradford i could try and get a couple of shifts in the horsforth store, that's a little closer, worth a go

Good find

lainey Posted October 18, 2007 Report Posted October 18, 2007 There are others on ebay but some of them battery power only, some of them say battery backup that will last up to 3 weeks, if your unsure best to email the person selling the item (razorsedge)
