If it's not bad enough justifying paying the money for one these days you just can't enjoy them anymore as you can't leave them anywhere. Such a shame.

Cossies are a pain in the arse why are thieves so attracted to them? There's other cars out there worth more in bits and attract less attention. Your average m3 for example.

That they are valuable and desirable cars. M3's (barring E30) are ten a penny.

Thought I recognised the Moonstone 3DR, feel sorry for chop.

Man this sucks. Gutted for the owners. I would be crying if it was mine.
Been a few occassions now where I have driven random routes home as you need to be so careful about being followed. Keep your eyes peeled chaps and I hope these guys get their cars back.

APU would have been one of the RS500 press cars. Fingers crossed for the owners

Cant believe its Lambchops. Isnt he still in Australia?

Them cars will never be seen again.

The higher the price of these cars rise the more there ginna be targeted by thieves.

Thanks for the concern guys. Yes the moonstone car was mine. I only found this thread after some spineless cunt making some tags on another thread.


I was back in Scotland in July and was to start the prep work for shipping. I arrived at the house after the cars were found missing and then the police showed up and took us to the white car which was dumped close to the village on a tiny back road.


Nothing has ever been heard of the other two


I don't expect to see it again so have replaced it with a car bought in Australia.

The new one is amazing yes and I'm thankful of it because I almost gave up on RS cars and I've owned them since 1999 now.

It's not really for me to say but there were a few small cosmetic issues with the first one and the keys were missing so that's a pain in the arse! Anyway the car was sold on as it no longer felt 'perfect'.

I miss my xr3i's and rs turbo's. I know now they are out of reach as spares are a nightmare especially where I am now.

Know what you mean about cars not feeling right after. Shame that someone can ruin something for someone like that.
