Partners daughter & son in law live in a flat in Lyon with "secure underground" parking(I use the term loosely)accessed with an electronic fob, not only a main front door but each garage has it's own internal door. They are in their mid 20's, work very hard & took delivery of a new VW Polo just one week ago. She parked it in their allotted parking space 3 floors down as per normal. On her return in the morning she was greeted by this sight! Presumably it was stolen to order as this was all that was taken. Professional & very neat job. It's a nice little car in an attractive colour but it is just an everyday runabout, it is nothing special in terms of performance etc but these are the steps these individuals will go to to earn a few Pounds/Euros. To cap it all they let the garage fire extinguisher off inside the car to supposedly eradicate any fingerprints. Totally unbelievable- when she sent us the photos we couldn't understand what we were looking at. Hopefully it was just a one off to order theft but are there any dashcams that send a message to a phone alerting the owners to movement nearby(or when the garage door is open)?
