About to do that now..

But as i understand it, the unit carries on working until it is updated again. But i assume that they won't be updating it anyway as they won't have the cables...

With regards all the stuff that was on view, i know it was careless but the car was parked on a mates driveway while i was in the house, was hardly like the middle of a deserted car park in the middle of no where.. I'm not cleaning my car out every time i get out of it...

It's wierd the way i feel, because i've had so much bad luck with the car that i just don't care about it anymore. I'm just disapointed that they didn't nick the entire car and all of it's contents. Atleast i'd be rid of it then!

Because it's a pain in the arse time consuming task to remove it and hide it in the glove box and then refit it again next time.

But only when they attempt to update it does it become useless. If they don't try and update it, it'll be fine.. Either way it's no help to me because i can't see them returning it once it becomes useless..

Just rang them and logged it as stolen. Unit will still work as normal until they try to update it or register it.

Condition isn't that bad mav. Bumper and wing were going to get sorted this month but i've had to get rear brakes and now replacement window instead so bodywork will have to wait until next month.

New set of wheels with mint tyres ready to go on and new set of headlights ready to go on. Nothing else wrong with it.
