Yeah
@Fossil Bluff 's right, an insurer could never enforce such terms, it's just where the vehicle is kept
regularly overnight. They would twist if say you lived rural and said you kept it there but then went and kept in a higher risk city every night -but doing this occasionally should be ok.
Taking reasonable care, ensuring it's locked etc is enough.
And never leave anything visible, the ‘scrotes’ Will have anything.
Flash back...
... to a real nightmare. I had SAR training weekend with my dog in South Wales (Talybont area). We came back off the hill to find a number of cars had been broken into. I was stoopid enough to have left lots of gear in the car, climbing and sailing kit, personal documents... all sorts. Anyway it was all gone.
I reached through the broken window for something and slashed my hand on the glass. Then the police wanted to ‘dust’ the car for fingerprints (not much to do in Wales) back at Crickhowell station. I gave them a statement and my search dog happily sat in the car with the boot open (it was a hot day). This added probably another three or four hours to my day so far. Then I came out to find that the dog had chewed through the wiring loom of the rear lights... “That’s okay” says the copper “it’s daylight, you won’t need the lights”
... I told him what I thought of his advice and the requirement to have indicators, reversing and brake lights... so there I was and hour and half later, still in a police compound waiting for the RAC to turn up - who then patched my wiring back together.
Eventually I got home, none of my gear was worth the hassle of ‘have you made a claim in the last 5 years’ and the time, effort, scars were never going to be retrieved.
A month later, I got a call from Crickhowell nick saying they had caught somebody connected to another offence, and they described some kit they found - it was my climbing rack... yeay... they said they would post it to me. 4 months later and I was still arguing with the police who never sent me my gear back.
So, NEVER leave anything on display in your car... not even a pair of shoes. If a hard up drug user can get £5 for your £180 pair of pattagoucci loafers, he would be happy.
Meanwhile, I’ll have to make amends and buy something to justify posting such utter twaddle on this thread.
