They only cost 600 euro fitting is extra. But there is something like 7,000 bikes stolen annually in Ireland. Many of these are worth more than €1500

The cheaper ones are €600. €300 for 10 minutes of dishonest work is plenty to attract the scrotes who steal your property, often leaving multiples of that in damages behind. Zappis cost over a grand afaik.

€600 is a lot of money to lose, regardless of whether it's a charger, a phone, a TV etc. No reason it shouldn't be secured properly or have an alarm or lockout of some sort.

absolutely, I was making reference to the Garda and how they are not interested in bike theft that is happening I. Much higher volume. So I don’t think they are too bothered here.

all electronic devices should have onboard GPS for theft recovery.

In a few weeks ask Gardaí to request the details of any new user. They may not register but it's possible they will.

If an e-car is stolen is it being broken up for parts? I kind of assumed that they would be the type of car that wouldn't be stolen for joyriding or to use in a crime

Someone I know had an i40 diesel fleet car with 200,000km stolen from a hotel. It was brought up North for parts. Gardai knew the chap. They'll steal anything.

Sorry to repeat, I know it's been asked a few times but the OP hasn't answered (I don't think).

Have you contacted MyEnergi? Their customer service is excellent. They may be able to trace the charger if it is installed again down the line, or they may even offer you something as a goodwill gesture. Maybe not, but there's certainly no harm in informing them.

They're a great company so if nothing else they can consider future improvements to security.

It's not economic to import cars from Britain any more, as they're subject to VAT.

Also, "Gardai knew the chap." Naturally! 🙄

By the way this was a wind up.

I was replacing a faulty zappy and took the picture.

😂

It could easily happy but not in this instance .

And on that note , im off.
