Removing valuables from your car in case you have to abandon it.

    I was driving to Dublin from Ennis last night and before i left decided to do a clean out of my van, ie tools, sound system amp and sub woofer, and what ever else accumulated in it over the years.

    My big fear is that if I was forced to abandon it on the side of the road that some scumbags would break into it and clean it out.

    For those that can remember the 1981 freeze up a heap of abandoned vehicles including trucks and vans were ransacked on the side of the Naas road.

    Just a word of warning.

    Thats connected to a high tension capacitor so the scumbags would get lifted if they touched it. :eek:

    Unless you actually need them in Ennis why would you pay extra to bring them there? You should take them out anyway, would save you money(not the ICE for normal trips though).

    Hopefully you put in some water, food, blankets, shovel and old carpet for traction if you got stuck
