All look to be coilers but whoever they belong to it is not nice to have your vehicle stolen

Some sad sights. Some seem to have been there for a while. Why have they not been previously reported ?
Random parts appear to have been stripped. Do you think the thieves where coming back for parts as they sold them ?

at least 2 people on the defender group had their land rovers found there. its sad how much work, time and effort go into these, for them to be stolen.

I bought a Smart Water pack and marked all the key parts and any parts I se eon Ebay.  But unless we are checking for it when we buy the thieves have no worried and I have wasted my money ( although I do have the stickers)

Doesnt the iphone tag reply upon other Iphones?  I know people with them on pets and bags but I live rurally where there aren';t too many iphones in use . I have a Vodafone curve which works on the mobile phone network.

Another thing about the AirTag is the Stalker alert.  If an airtag is moving with you (as it would if the Landy was stolen and the thief had an air tag app) it would alert the thief to the fact there was an air tag in the vehicle.

I believe the tag only uses other iPhones for GPS, only to determine where it is.

I don't know if you need an iPhone to actually use the Apple tag, maybe you do.  But if you haven't an iPhone, maybe you've an iPad?  Or at least access to a family member's one?

We put an Airtag on my wifes bicycle in case it got nicked but the one time she rode it without her phone with her it started beeping which makes it pretty useless as an anti theft device.  :stars

Hi,

How soon will it be before "Speed Cops" can book anybody and everybody, from their armchair, using mobile phones?

After that, we will be able to get a reduced sentence, by reporting weekly, to the Speed Cops home, to confess.  :stars
