ok, my caps lock stuck when i went to put in the title

i was thinking, About cars being stole, something that happens now days and is wrong but i thought, when someone puts a topic up in say The main forums it goes to the bottom and hardly anyone reads it sometimes,

but i thought maybe a way we could make them pop up like a message in your inbox to let u know about the car being stolen, like the new message where it tells you have a message and pops up at you, So what it does is have a stolen forums, post in there, then that gets added onto the pop up message so when i new car is stolen it pops up and you can check it out and then everyone wont miss it, obs you wouldnt have it so that members can turn it off as its rather important i think

i think it's a smart idea, members allk over the country are always on the lookout for other fords. i always spot em parked up, down side roads etc.

Why not recognize on as a stolen one? at least you'll have a pic in your mind when your out and about.

No one else then? It'd be nice to have that backup if your car was nicked. Especially since the police are completely useless generally.

Don't forget, they don't hear about cars being broken for bits like us lot do

Could maybe include a small decent picture, reg number and last two digits of chassis number or something.

Along with location, time etc.

I think having it alert you like a PM would be best, cause it'll tell you until you read it then it will stay in your 'Stolen Cars Inbox' incase you need to look at it again. It can be removed either after a year or if the car is found/returned etc.

That would be a first on a forum that i know of, and a genuinely useful add on.

We have members from top to bottom of the country!
