Thats not a bad point ginge? At least worth a try although id guess they'd go through the same processes as the Orion.

As i said on the phone really am so sorry mate, but at least your looking at it right and not dwelling on it. Its not gonna be easy to swallow by any means but your on the right track and as i said mate any help you need at all let me know.

Onwards and upwards hey

Anyone notice that there always seems to be a time of year when a spate of cossies go missing.

I hope to god you'll be as lucky as Paula was with her 3-door, but we are all realistic and know theres slim to no chance fucking wankers.

As you say funny how no-one will hear or see anything (as with Bruces 3-door) you'd think people would question that parts would come up all of a sudden.

Take it you didn't have tracker lets hope the CCTV will give the police a clue to start with. Absolutely gutted for you

have you actually reported to the police as stolen or just gone in and said can i see your cctv?

It's bound to be on cctv somewhere and should be easily identifiable, unless they used a curtian sided truck or cover or something.

Doubt it would be council on a sunday but worth a phonecall.

they might have put a car cover over it on the back of a flat bed.

still any truck with a car on the back either a sierra or a big car with a cover should be identifable!

Fuck's sake, I can't believe they took the liberty of nicking it from outside where you live.

When my car got broken into I was more annoyed about the piss take rather than the stuff that went walkies.

its been taken on a hiab guys, takes seconds to do and due to all the rain the bonnet was dirty


tyre wasnt flat btw, it as actually mud around it mark that made it look flat


its just been taxed this month aswell as the res permit has just been renewed


think someone ahs seen it for a while tbh and come back to see if its still there and took it



as said its life, cant do fuck all about it


if you guys can keep an eye out for ears rl7's, quaife diff and other stuff that was on the car anywhere cause who ever has them for sale i will be visiting and they beter hope they aint got my shite !

its all easy to indetify too tbh, the head has2 17mil bolts holding the zorst manifold on as the old ones snapped in the head, the back seat was bent from when it got broken into and they ripped the sub out the boot

the bonnet has a tiny rust bubble on the front, the front bumper has a crack on the corner

on of the wheels had been repaired

the list goes on and its not hard to know if there mine or not



oh and anyone interested in a secs s8 ecu, wide band afr gauge, t34, cloth cossie trim, cossie 205 bare block, crank,2wd head, mirror polished plenum, mirror polished rocker cover with baily turbo dampner, breather

cant think what else i got

may also break my tennis cabrio too as i cant be bothered with fucking cars anymore, there great when everything is fine but then things like this happen and the stress you get in unreal
