Sorry to hear about this, stick your registation on here and I'm sure we'll all keep our eye's open for you.

Sorry to hear that.
Do what Jeff says. You never know.
I personally know of 3 people who have had van and system stolen in the last couple of months. Two of them were working out of sight of their vans at the time. They were working with doors open. I think the thieves know what they are looking for and wait for an opportunity. Outside ports for both filling and working with van locked are really a must nowadays.

Oh man thats terible, what area was this, i hope the scum get caught, have you contacted any other cleaners, thinking about marking all my equipment, This is exactlty why i have ports outside, and if i forget to lock van it locks itself after 30 seconds excepept any doors left open so then no one can get in cab.

Might be worth checking out e-bay too.
Sorry to hear that.
I had a transit knicked from outside the house a few years ago. Came downstairs, had me brekky, got dressed, did me ablutions, la de da, off to work. Went out the house, there was this big space in the road where the van sits. Looked up and down the road. No van.
Its been knicked!
I couldnt believe it.
Bleedin bomb-shell.
Good luck in things working out for you.

simpole had two stolen on same nite

Was it sign-written or has any distinctive markings making it easier to spot?
-
its happening all over the place .

If somone stole my van without the key, they'd have to send off to Italy for a key code replacement, it would take 2 weeks and it would be traced. I've had 2 attempts on my van, I'd hospitalise the **** if I caught them in the act, stuff waiting for the police to show up
