Do these thiefs have the keys because I thought the car was incapable of being stolen???

You can steal every car you want, you just need to know how...
Those thiefs use flatbed trucks and/or computer laptops...

So in Germany X5s get stollen a lot... I knew something was wrong.. Too many X5s here in Romania..and we aren't so rich..

Hey guys.. gues what! You don't have to ensure you cars anymore! If they get stollen.. there is a big change I'll see it arround here

And belive me.. when it comed for stealing.. for the Romanians or Russians nothing is impossible to steal. I heard theese guys have computers for every new type of car. No mather it's BMW or Bentlety.

So.. take care.

They also have special tools who fool the lock. They just put it in the lock and it adjusts. Then the door can be opened just like you would have the key and it also disarms the alarm. The car just thinks this is the real key.... X5 is one of the easiest to steal and it's very popular among thiefs because those cars are going to Poland, Russia and Romania or other "eastern" countrys, where the streets are not as good as in Germany.

The dutch importer once lost 4 brand new VW Touaregs. They were transported to russia for a tv program and were confiscated at the border by the border patrol. The cars disapeared after being confiscated. I think the border patrol guys are driving some nice VW's now!
