Had my van done last night and all my corded and cordless power tools have gone
After talking to police and others, it seems there is a "master" type ford transit key available from amazon for around 25 quid which will open various models, including dead locks
4 or 5 transits got robbed in my area last night according to plod, all with no signs of break in/damage

Had my complete Milwaukee kit, Marcrist corer, 36v Hilti, multi tool (cheapo) and probably other stuff
Anyway, no point crying over spilt milk etc (I've made a few calls and had a couple of names back which, if involved, will be visited)
Will get my old Makita core drill refurbed, I've got an old milwaukee 28v for a bigger sds, so just need a good kit (drill, recip saw, torch, trim saw etc)
Can have the 6 piece Milwaukee fuel with 6 battery charger station, impact and drill/driver, torch, recip and trim saws and angle grinder for around £875/900 incl VAT
Looked at Makita, Dewalt and Hitachi and all look much of a muchness
Any exp of these?
 
I think it is also disgusting how manufacturers can make vans with so crap security whatever the era.
It is just so bad.
What the hell do they think is gonna be kept in most vans ??
Security on commercial vehicles should be up there in the design briefs alongside economy etc.
