So today in our office car park,

We had our Sport smashed up, passengers side window smashed through... Presumable to open the bonnet, stolen grill and both headlights! I had never seen anything like it! All for a pair of headlights and grill and an iPod!

FUMING!

It gets worse, they did this to both our range rover but also another employees black AB at the same time!
Cameras, which unfortunately don't show enough for the police to do anything (typical), that they did it in 40 seconds !!!!

Unbelievable this was in a big open car park, nobody saw until they were long gone!



Land Rover Assist useless! Raging!

UPDATE: police have suspects, 5 Range Rovers have been done this afternoon alone, all in the Leeds and Bradford area!

Still a huge cost in an insurance claim and I no longer feel that I can leave my RRS at work, never mind elsewhere.

5 in one day, this is getting to be the next thing now, rear lights now front and grills

Makes you wonder what will be next, especially when the other thread says the lights are on back order

This is getting silly!
I was thinking of upgrading my lights. Don't think I will bother. To be fair if no one upgraded there lights' These scum bags wouldn't nick other peoples
Sorry for you bad news

Exactly Chris.
If the buyers weren't there the thefts would stop.
However, as early sports are now relatively cheap there are new owners out there looking to upgrade their cars on the cheap via Fleebay!

If I were you I'd keep your current lights as you're less likely to suffer the problems others are experiencing now.

Absolutely disgusting.
Unfortunately making me look into buying a different brand, just been considering a new SC MY14 , don't think I'll bother.

Sorry to hear this.

Hopefully LR have sorted these issues on the MY14!  Arrived: MY16 A/B SDV6 in Aruba, Ivory interior, piano black trim, black panoramic roof, spare wheel, blind spot monitoring, mudlaps and more...

Gone but not forgotten:
2014 RRS2 SDV6 HSE in Loire Blue
2011 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE in Santorini Black

Wonder if JLR have any conscience and will look at offering a quick modification to stop the theft of front & rear lights happening











Oh, just let me answer that

Its about time the Police and the Courts made an example of these thieves. It's a Western society problem that consequences are not enough for this type of crime. The inconvenience alone for you is massive. I would be ropable.

Every day I return home from work I walk down my grove expecting to see a gapping hole either in my rear light aperture or half the front end missing !!!
My Sport now has 2 CCTV cameras positioned on it at any one time at home but even that I dont believe has much chance of stopping the

Why don't Landrover donate a bait car in the hotspot areas as a gesture of good will !!!! I believe this is not opportunist thieving but the parts are stolen to order for either here or foreign shores.

I have face lifted my Sport & its cost me literally thousands of pounds. I am on first name terms with the local parts department & can recognise Dan @ Duckworths by his voice because I speak to him that often

Will it ever end

I would like to wire my car up so it blows the bastards sky high !!!!!!

It's so not fair many of you have spent thousands of £££ facelifting you RRS's and i don't know how your going to sleep at night knowing this could happen to your pride and joy.
Hope you have all let your insurance know about your up grades guys!!!
If not big bills to replace and then your be wanting your old ones back and I won't be able to sleep at night thinking mine are about to go walk about!!! He'he
