My sister had her white Seat Cupra K1 taken at knife point on her drive on Wednesday, the people responsible are using a red Astra with the reg starting BX55 ***, we dont have the rest yet. These guys need stopping as this is the second K1 they have taken off her in less than a year. Both times off her drive in Solihull, we recon they're local.

 

thats not nice and hope they get caught.

I thought solihull was a nice area, better warn my mate who live there, but then again he drive a vw diesel so doubt that will get jacked.

Hope she isnt too traumatised and is making a full recovery

 

jesus thats terrible to happen twice aswell has she a discription hope shes ok

 

knife point on a woman the fucking cowards!!!! hope you get a result martin,for your sisters sake

 

Martin the best approach is to catch these guys... The old fashioned way... And give them a bit of ointment.

 

Mate sorry to read this, fooking scumbag cowards threatening a woman, i,m over there today so i'll keep my eyes peeled Mart...

 

Shit mate sorry to hear that the car they used will most likley be a doubler so i wouldnt hold much hope of that being a good lead

 

I have reason to believe its the original plate

 

Fucking cunts ... Is there a description of them Mart?

 

Sadly now that cars are well immobilised, its getting more common for cars to be taken like this

Hope your sister is ok.

 

They were masked up, but we think two were white and one was an asian guy.

 

horrible cunts hope you get em

 

At least she is unhurt but that has got to really shake you up. My best wishes to her.

Hope the miserable lowlife scummers crash and die slowly in the flames of one of their stolen cars.

 

Absolutely shocking Martin, hope these people are caught and quickly. i take it the first k1 wasnt recovered?

 

No, never seen again. She'd had it from new and it was very low mileage

 

Fucking scum.

Really boils my piss to hear stories like this. I'm just gald in a way that I live comparatively in the sticks compared to you Martin.

This country really does need a vigilante network forming. In the States you'd get away with popping a cap in all three of them for the thought...........

Thankfully it sounds like your sister at least escaped physically unscathed....this time, but hey, that's twice, buy her a Fiesta

 

Had to check posting date as I thought I was having deja vu. So sorry for your sister Martin. Not really my area anymore but go from town to home so never know, i'll keep em peeled.

 

Its not worth having any sort after or even decent spec vw audi or seat in birmingham its a case of when not if its getting taken.the only people that keep them are the ones taking them sadly

 

Sorry to hear of this, I hope they die with rats up their arses. And that's not funny it would be very painfull.

A friend of mine, his Mom had her car jacked at the lights a few years ago, knifepoint, very traumatizing, enough to near put you off driving if your a delicate type. I hope your sister is okay, if this were to happen to my nearest and dearest I would want blood, and lots of it.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is special about the car that they take it twice?

 

Is it deffo the same people who took the first one also Martin? Have they got a grudge against your sister or just coincidence.

 

Its nothing to do with my sister it's simply a soughtafter car.

 

Where abouts in Solihull?

 

Off Solihull Road

 

Maybe it's time to invest in some Reyland spec CCTV at your sisters place Martin? Your set up is very good from the pics you put up a while back.

As for the folk who think its not worth keeping nice things, that's not the point, if you want something nice work hard for it, don't go out with the intention of stabbing someone if they won't give it to you.

Hope your sister isn't too traumatised by this martin, but on that note, will she be moving?

 

It sounds like they scope out a car to take coincidence or not they've probably driven around few times and noticed it. mite be worth getting a tracker in the next one if she gets one yes i know they can block the signal but are they that clever ?

 

bad news to hear this Martin ,hope your sister is ok .
would it not be a good idea to fit an anti hijack alarm to the car ?
so they get 100mtrs down road then the car stops giving your sister enough time to get in the house where the shot gun is waiting behind the front door ,to get some real justice.

 

I did say that after the first one went! I'm sure it will happen for the next one though!

 

Fucking pussies,sorry to hear it mate,eyes peeled here.

 

shit news mart i do hope she is ok . i will keep my eyes open over my side of town

 

One taken in Coventry iirc a few days ago, again at knifepoint, sure that was grey but cant remember.

Shit news, hope she isnt too shuck up.

 

search the net guys for any seat k1 breakers in birmingham! martin the first time she should have invested in a proper ant theft device and maybe had a tracker fitted. camaras aarund the house and drive way etc. hope you find the car though and secure everything. i hope the kunts die though scums

 

by the way i though most BX plate astras were police cars????? i saw a bx55 astra red today but it was the police undercover.. maybe they have copied fake plates....

 

Might be an idea to check google street maps in the known dodgy/scummy areas incase it happens to be parked up at the time of map-making? if you're bored and have some time to kill

 

also check cctv like anywhere around the area at the time to check what direction the car went to . was it low on fuel? maybe they put fuel in it at local petrl stations if the fuel was really low on it. check the units and industrial areas .. drive around quite roads . they may park it up a few days to see it the car gets found via a tracker if it dont theyl go back and get it.

 

That's absolutely terrible news mate, I hope to god your sister is able to get over it given time.

Surprisingly, Mo makes some valid points about taking a wee ride around to see if they've left it somewhere obscure to check that it isn't tracker'd up?? Although I'm sure you're already on the case as far as searching for the K1, Astra and these bastards goes.

I was going to suggest exactly this, IIRC it was someone on here that did your CCTV set up. The pictures you put up were brilliant and were used to solve a crime already weren't they??


Cheers,
Grant

 

Near the sharmans cross pub?
Have heard of a few cars going like this in monkspath.
Will keep a look out for red astras.

 

Were they asian? I've one caning it around the asda in small heath a couple of times which BX55 rings a bell - last time it stopped outside the pub just before the roundabout. Could be worth having a scout.

 

id have a look around small heath aswell dude. alot of k1 up there i see alot now . i saw a few but not white ones if you pm the num plate ill have a look round for it. the other thing to do is put it up on the k1 forum they should be made aware and might even know the thieves by buying parts off them in the same area etc

 

I'm over at Cat. I'll keep my eyes open. Any description?

 

Two white one Asian we think. The stolen car is a White K1 with black wheels, reg is KY58 TOV.

It looked like this:
