Hello. I’ve had my transit van stolen from my drive last night. From the Holmfirth area of Huddersfield
It is white Reg YR13 HNC.
It had rhino roof bars with a double extension ladder onto when it was taken
it has had the driver door lock drilled out.
So if anyone sees it parked up any where please could you contact me,
ive been informed that lads are coming In from Barnsley/Doncaster area to steal vehicles
thanks for your time
In Brighouse, will keep my eyes open mate. No doubt be long gone sadly though
theres a lot of it our way at the minute unfortunately. nick em, take the engines out then torch them.
hope you get a different outcome mate, good luck.
Hey our work one turned up the other end of the country with every lock broken and panels bent where they'd used a crowbar to open them & a damaged front end where they'd driven it through the work gates. The burglars using it, denied it was theirs, even though they were in the middle of no where and had no other form of transport. We got it back.. but work decided that as every panel was bent it didn't really want it associated with the company, so sold it for pitance. Claim on your insurance and get one with better locks next time.. and a tracker...
I work in huddersfield so will keep an eye out
Trackers are great - mate had his motor bike stolen & got a call from the company because his bike was seen to be moving without ignition switched on, police caught the scrotes in process of trying to angle grinder the tracker out...
security is the one weak spot of Transits for sure.get one with better locks next time
Worth a few quid upgrading to a Hykee style lock with armoured bezel to prevent drilling. Also the diagnostic port can be re-routed into a lock box to prevent the crims simply plugging a laptop in & driving off the the event that they do get into the cab.
Thats crap news. Hope you get a good payout. I've just bought a (new to me) Transit which has extra security locks on the doors. Might be worth getting some fitted to your replacement.
If you need a van in a hurry for work you can have my old Transit for peanuts. I can't be arsed to EBay it and its sitting on my drive taking up space.
