M13KYF Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Some low life chuff pinched by Z caps yesterday in a NCP car park in town so it can hardly be kids. If anyone sees a set on ebay with 1 Z badge missing of one of the caps then report the tw@ts ......and relax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Know how you feel Mike, similar happened to me on another vehicle. .just keep to the plastic one's no probs then. . also no one thinks about letting the tyres down once they have pinched em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Mike - thats just ridiculous. Arent NCP car parks mostly covered by cctv? I know its hardly major crime a set of caps, but its the principal. May be worth asking them if they record it? Thankfully they came off without buggering up the valves though!

M13KYF Posted August 17, 2006 Author Share Posted August 17, 2006 yeah valves were fine. They were the proper Z caps and not cheapo ones too so shouldn't rust on. Was only really keeping them for show but where I park I thought would of been safe and its garaged at night. Can't be arsed with CCTV. Chances of ever tracing the person is nil and hardly a prioity for the police £15 dust caps. Not complaing about the police btw. Ordered some Richbrook Anti Theft Items. Just prefer the look rather than the plain plastic ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergo Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Had mine nicked a few weeks back. Bought some cheapo alloy ones from Halfords & the cheeks sh!ts teefed them too . Seem to be spending my days scrutinising the local yoofs on bicycles to se if they appear there! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me about a week to calm down, god knows how i would react if someone really damaged my Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted August 19, 2006 Author Share Posted August 19, 2006 fitted the Richbrook anti theft ones today (titanium colour) look nice. Just £12.40 lighter though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Pics? Where you get these from then. I wanted to put other ones rather than the plastic cr*p, but didn't want to put the Zed ones on for exactly the reason you just suffered......

M13KYF Posted August 20, 2006 Author Share Posted August 20, 2006 Got them from here. Cheapest I found with free delivery. Look good fitted and I prefer the keyring tool to the other version that uses a mini scre driver. http://www.ragingspeed.co.uk/catalog/pr ... cts_id=328 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H5 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Grrrr some Thieving git stole 2 of mine last night. Why 2??? Some countries have the right idea of cutting thieves hands off..... Grrrr It's the sort of thing you hear about and I spoke to a friend this morning who actually met someone who had exactly that done - the tip of a finger taken off by his own family for and indiscretion!!! He won't be doing that again! It is so pointless. Probably so they can go and throw them at each other on the way to kicking a cat or something equally as worthwhile. Scummy little sh!tes. Ming, can we electrify our cars......?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkfish Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 That sucks, Mike. You wouldn't expect it in an NCP car park, but then again nothing surprises me any more. Grrrr some Thieving git stole 2 of mine last night. Why 2??? Some countries have the right idea of cutting thieves hands off..... Grrrr They only take 2 cos that's all they need for their bikes, the little scrotes!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennydies Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 It was the side of the car neares the kerb. Would love to catch them, would mean a trip to court for me but would be worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerbside*motors Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 OP! If you get another set, smear them with vaseline. Makes them too slidey to remove with fingulars alone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
