    I dont know the area very well, but If in doubt, dont leave it, its not worth the loss or hassle.

    On a slight other note, i witnessed a hit and run in the car park last time i went there.

    We often stay at the premier inn around the corner and have had our vans broken into numerous times, it's a dodgy place and I'm sure I've seen some where they have gangs waiting in vans to chuck them into

    It depends.

    Are we talking the shopping centre or the arts centre?

    Dont know the area but leaving tasty supersports bikes in large public car parks is ' walking the wire ' in my opinion. You can not anchor it so any van full of thieving scum can just hoof it in the back.... i would not do it.
