2nded,

I dont know you Rolls, but can only imagine what your going through. It makes my blood boil knowing these low life toe rags can get away with this.

Im in Harlow (Essex) and would quiet happily pop down and give you a hand.

I haven't read this whole thread, most of it, but not all, so sorry if I have missed anything.

Firstly, it's thoroughly shit news about your Escos and great how everyone is helping out, but don't forget that even car thieves have the internet, it's probably how they found out about the car in the first place, so surely posting all about your progress etc will only give them a headstart?

Sorry if this has already been mentioned and good luck.

Agree with sticky, when i saw that post about the tracker blocker thing i thought the same. They'd have to be cocky bastards though.

Gutted for you mate, hope you find it.

bump to keep ppl interested

Tracker blockers should be banned and anyone caught with one should be locked up for car thieifing etc

We recently had a 8 ton slew stolen mate, no tracker etc.

Went and put a lot of pressure on the owner of the farm it was on, he cracked and gave it back

Took a lot to get this back, 6 + hours in a jail cell, and some friends that helped too

Might be worth while having a backup plan if its found and you know who did it

I've just been chatting to my 'friend' who's a officer of the law and she's advised you to ring Crimestoppers as that will really get the ball rolling.

She also advised to make them aware of that post code, Bish's car and possible parts being sold, obveiosly your car and the connection with it heading in the Orpington direction. There is every chance it is the same people......

I'll give them a buzz later to advise about the discovery i made with Bish's Focus Rs.

Oh and its completely confidential so a few of us ringing wouldn't go amiss

that wont make much difference as they obviously have access to DVLA database to get an address from a reg number anyway.

Problem is these people will note when they see "valuable" cars on driveways etc on thier travels so unless you can hide it away there isnt much you can do.

Its not a million miles from biggin hill. Il ring my mate and see if he can find anything out.

Il be going up to biggin hill later so il have a look about on my drive through, and il tell my brother and all the people he works with up there to keep their ears and eyes peeled.
tatsfeild is a stone throw away frm bigginhill i live in tatsfeild never herd of this barn thing tho?? and that google eath image is just down the road from an old farm. . . .( norheads farm)

Bloody hell, only just read this! I used to live in Mottingham (next town to Chistlehurst) and pikeys turned up in a white transit to tow my cossie off the drive about 9 months ago. Fortunately my neighbour stopped them but sounds like the same people. He didn't get a registration but he did see them again later the same day with the van again parked up down by the pub on the left as you go down Mottingham Road towards Mottingham village.

Rolls - I think I sent you a PM at the time warning you about what had happened. I don't have it in my sent box anymore but check it if you still have it as it may have more details I have forgotten.

I will keep my eyes peeled for you mate. Really gutted for you

Yeh good work guys, this is Pf at its best

much better than the usual brown nosing and sucking up from the "it crowd" and pf conformists

Oh and google earth will only be able to locate the barns, not a car, as its not live streaming, some times it can be a photo from 6 months ago. If i zoom in on my house, the cossies still on the drive even tho its been sold for months

SO has anyone been to the lock ups yet, surley someone has? every day that goes past its gna be less chance of sucess!

no updates on this yet????????????


hope you get your car back mate. If it was me,i would have gathered aload of mates,and would of been round there ages ago.The police dont care about stuff like this! These days you tell them people are threatening to stab you,and they tell you they cant do anything until something happens!!!!!!

honestly though,the longer this is left,the less chance there is of getting it back. Take these offers up off lads on here ,gather a load of you and go get it.I know people say he knows where you live,but you also know where he lives! And when he sees 30+ people turn up on his fucking door he will think twice.

Shit,im in heathrow and i'll make the trip to meet up!! These people take the piss,and i wouldnt wish this on anyone.If its all being kept off radar mate,throw us a pm and i'll be there


think of it this way mate,Your fortunate enough to even have a lead on where your car might be........most arent even thrown a bone.

There is so much that adds up on this thread so far,shit,everyones done the work for them,yet the old bill still wont bother.

Hope theres a happy ending to this though mate....Ive always wanted an escos,and this is a worst nightmare for an owner of one.......

Because its rarely a priority for the police to do this. Unfortunately to them its just another stolen car.
