Today as i left the house, i noticed that some :cry: piky chavs have stolen all 4 of my tyre valve caps! They were the chrome ones that came with my wheels. What annoys me most is that my driveway is set back a bit from the road and my mini is parked right up against the garage door, This means tha my wheels etc aren't visible from the road, so the only way they would have known i had shiney dust caps is for them to have walked up the drive way!! It makes my blood boil that people do this kind of thing, to trespass on other peoples property and then steal something!

I know most chavs are inbreds but when it comes to chavs breeding with magpies we know we have to worry!!

lol don't you mean my petrol gauge? But cool, fancy sending me a step by step guidde on how to do the speedo for the acewell? Just so that when i break it and the whole thing blows up, i'll know which bit i did wrong to make it blow up! :cry:

Still annoyed about those dust caps. I'm gonna get some flush fitting ones i think so that its chav/magpie proof!

tis a common problem all over the place unfortunately, as my car came with the nice chrome ones but kept getting nicked so I bought plastic ones and have remained on there ever since. :cry: low lifes wont nick them ones, wonder why.

I would suggest a set of anti-theft caps. I have a set and they are impossible to remove without the tool.

I've heard of these. Where did you get yours? I dont really want to put those horrible black plastic ones on. I just dont understand why tyre valve caps are so damn appealing to people! the mind boggles!

haha, bet it sounded like a great idea at the time! Was any alcahol involved when making the decision to superglue the caps to the valve? :cry:
