Wireless headphones stolen

The wireless headphones which come with the Meridian system were stolen from my Evoque last night. It seems that the car didn't lock when I parked on our street, someone must have noticed that the doors were unlocked and rummaged through the car. I got in the car this morning to find that the glove box was open along with the centre arm rest. Papers strewn across the seats and the iPhone charging cables lying on the floor.

The only reason I can think of for the car not locking is that the bonnet was not shut properly after I refilled the screen washer fluid last night. Does anyone know whether the doors lock if the bonnet is not shut completely?

I am really annoyed as its quite scary to know that someone has been inside my car and that the headphones are gone. Good thing I didn't have any other valuables inside.

Does anyone know the part number for the headphones so that I can order a replacement?

RE: Wireless headphones stolen

Thats bad news. I have had the same done to my current car (Evoque arriving this week) and we think because we have left the car unlocked. Just a chancer I assume, lifting door handles and seeing what they can find.
This has prompted me to invest in a CCTV system, mainly as a deterent rather than anything else, in readiness for my new arrival.

RE: Wireless headphones stolen

normally you get a different chirp from the locking system when something is amiss such as keys inside or something like the bonnet not down properly.

I mistook it for the actual locking confirmation the first time it happened to me.
Really sorry about your theft - never a pleasant feeling.

Arrived: SD4 Prestige Auto Coupe with Lux pack. Ipanema Sand with Black Panoramic Roof
Ambience Interior with Macassa wood.

Now a Jag XFR Kyanite Blue - wow what power.
At home and superb.

Agree with that ..... It's described as mislocking in the manual I think.

RE: Wireless headphones stolen

I have twice in the past come out to find the car unlocked. Not sure if it's a case of pressing the wrong fob button to lock it or touching the unlock button when in the shop or house!

RE: Wireless headphones stolen

Sorry to hear about the theft, one thing though if the thief thinks they are bluetooth headphones they will be sorely disappointed that they only work in another Evoque....... no use with bluetooth devices!

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

The same thing happened to me 3months ago, I didnt realise anything was missing till I asked the wife to get the tomtom out of glove box 2 miles down the road. Of course it wasnt there, looked in my armrest to realise my ipod was also missing.

I thought these cars automatically lock themselves if you forget to lock it.
