Gutted for K Hope he gets it back.

To have stolen it from a pub car park with the ammount of security gear he had on it they must have been very clued up

What was the point of stealing that??

Its hardly subtle for a joyrider or for selling on, and its not worth breaking for parts as most of them are custom and readily identifiable!!

You'd have thought a car like that would have more security than fort knox.


Hope he gets it back and they catch who did it

Just been down to see K, he is as completely bewlidered as everyone else as to who would nick it!

Far too high profile a car for the bits to be easy to sell, especially given that everything on it is pretty much one off.

The pub it was taken from you WOULD hear it fire up so it was either pushed up the road first, or trailered away.

I would imagine probably trailered away, i would imagine its in bits somewhere by now

Had valuable parts you find on any M3 like the engine and diff etc, but also had thousands of pounds worth of audio gear that would probably be relatively easy to shift in small chunks.


He's properly upset over it, especially as he didnt really have it insured for anything like what it was worth, he wont get anything like as much back as people would expect


Such a shitty thing to happen to such a genuinely nice bloke

Feel sorry for the guy....but then we're obviously talking about organised gangs or something more sinister. More people than you think have a dodgy past....don't trust anyone! Car's like these aren't stolen by normal thieves IMO.

Hope he gets it back, but somehow I don't think he will.

Sadly im sure you are correct mate.


Worse thing is that at least one person K knows is probably involved in some way!

Chip, unfortunately, I think we all do mate. Fast Cars attract thieves and I wouldn't be surprised if there's even quite a few who are members on this board I'll leave it at that though!

Yes mate, same guy.


He's a petrolhead of the highest order

Personally im not really into lairy style cars, not my thing at all (well other than yellow ones with whale tails, lol) but somehow K always manages to do over the top cars and yet them still look good to peopel who arent into over the top cars, like myself.

Really talented guy, and most of all a REALLY dedicated guy, he must be gutted at his creation getting destroyed.

Nah mate it was dark blue, not sure on the tech name thou!!

Only just seen this and am pretty shocked!!!!!!!!!!!

Will ring him in a bit truely shocking, not exactly the sort of car u can shift bits off as the arches are bonded and were custom made so wont just fit another M3 and the bumper was extended to suit the arches etc etc plus all the stuff like interior dash etc is all 1 off!!!
