Default Mk2 Escort Rally Car Stolen!!!!!!!!! - UPDATED

This is post on behalf of a friend...

Some thieving have stolen our rally car

It's a white Mk2 Escort reg no NLF227V fitted with a 2 litre Zetec engine with twin 45's on a Weber alpha management system.

picture here:



If anybody hears anything please let me know - the car took 3 years to get together and we obviously want it back (fat chance). The theft was recorded on CCTV (the car was in a yard with lots of expensive plant machinery but was the only thing taken). The car was stored in Maidstone.

As a consequence we are out of action and severely out of pocket.

The car was in a gated, locked yard, covered by CCTV, it's not on a main road (the yard is served by its own dedicated road) so it's not in plain view of any casual passers by. They had to move some other stuff to get the rallycar out, it would be too much hassle for a casual joyrider, some utter just wanted our car.

Dirty thieving

Here's one of the replies so far.....

IDEA - i read an article about a guy that had his 911 stolen so he put an advertisment on E-bay under Porsche 911 section ( cars for sale ) with a big sign saying STOLEN. He posted all the details about the car and within 2 days a guy rang up saying he had been offered the car but with different plates on - he had simply recognised the rare factory option alloys fitted and realised that it was that very car. They caught the thief and got the car back.........worth a try ?

Thanks
