do they have trackers as standard then?
better to not have as then you get the guy to put it where you want so it cant be cut out

not fool proof, but as tesco say every little helps, longer they are mucking about stealing your motor more likely they are to be seen / put off / give up.

yeah but in aberdeenyoull easy find your car in two mins a nice drive round torry or

It's the first I've read about, but I'm not exactly a stolen car database.

A few people have made reference to pikeys but the OP states that the police are looking for Asians in this particular case.

IMO it's people like them that are wrong with Britain. Don't do anything and just steal what they want, never work a day in their life. And to make it worse, if you fight back you go to prison What a world eh.

Rant over

no matey,the owner of the rs wants nowt to do with it from what my mate said,the police say they will use violence to get cars and that means they are more likely to harm you than you harm them,they have the secret weapon too which is the element of surprise. they stole someone elses car doing exactly the same thing and the car owner woke up as they were in the bedroom rooting for keys and things turned nasty,thats how the plod know its asians they are hunting.

Ha nice one Phil


i'm going to see my mate and tell him about the new rs stuff on ebay and he can tell the lad whose car was stolen about it.

cheeRS lads.

i bet though someone uses a new account con tacts the person on ebay and gives it the "is that stuff stolen from D2OMY" then the ad will get yanked,if someone can save it i'd appreciate it like.
obviously if its totally genuine they can prove which car the stuff came from.

had someone point this out to me.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-FOCUS-RS-...item335a65aa76


some of the other stuff that was on ebay has been ended due to probably people buying the stuff.

looking at the above link thats a whole lot of stuff available from a mint front end focus rs that happens to be the same colour as the robbed car.


we have looked on ebay and theres nearly a complete focus rs car minus the shell on ebay in and around the yorkshire/manchester area.
not far from oldham into yorkshire is it???????

technically you can here in self defence problem is proving it in a court of law to avoid prosecution.

its pathetic here, someone can force their way into your home and until they threaten you or lay a finger on you, all you can do is dial 999. to grab them and stop them is assault. of course if they touch you or threaten you then self defence laws apply but you have to prove it and these days with the CPS your word that a scum bag threatened you is no longer enough. the fact he shouldnt have been there counts for nothing. it is merely the alleged assault that is considered.

reg is D2OMY and the blokes called Dromy Dromgoole.

him and his buisness partner bought one each and now the other is for sale as they don't want the same thing happening.

he left chester and went for a night out away and stayed with friends and came back and had a few more drinks and went to bed.
In the night the gaff got rumbled and when the robbers broke in they took the keys to a new bm that was blocking in the RS and backed it out the way and left it in the drive and across the pavement with the door open and the keys in the ignition.
the police said the gang have done it before and will use the knife if they get caught taking the keys,also the police said its asians they are after who are doing it. other than that they don't know any more.

it was 9.30 in the morning when the car was reported stolen and by 10 the tracker peeople were informed and theres nothing tracker can find as its not showing up so they either know how to disarm the tracker or somthing.
dirty horrible bastards at least no one saw them as it could have been alot worse with the knife.....

as with the tracker ive heard through word of mouth that if you put a car in a big metal container that the tracker cant be tracked but dont know for sure.....

hope they get caught
