Default Stolen : Rs Turbo Cab

On 8/1/11 between 2am and 5.30am a friends white RS turbo cab was stolen from the Chell / Packmoor area in stoke on trent

Details
RS Turbo Cab in white MK4
White hood
Reg plate A7NNL
5 spoke wheels - silver
Side skirts and modified bumper with round holes to take driving lights (Not fitted)
Half leather trim
Chrome rear badges

Orginally bought off a trader from the Walsall area off ebay.
Car was taken using a key and was all spotted on CCTV in the stone area A34 petrol station doing a drive off. Footage not good enough to get a face image.
Trader is known for doing this before and west midland police have already raidered and questioned him but nothing found.

I will get some pics up as soon as i can get some from her if any one has any info please pm me. Possible reward offered

The problem is that you have to leave your name and address with the old keeper / seller on the V5 so if you can get any imobiliser(s) and or keys changed or fit another one! Years ago I had My RS stolen and the brake lines on my wifes car to prevent chase! this was made me very warey.

changing the key for an electonic imobiser is always a good one as the bad person (sucessful dynamic censorship) is sat in the car wondering why the f**K (failed dynamic censorship) the engine doesn't start!

No information yet, the trader wants fooking. I will find out where it came from and post it up.
Mods... Is that ok to do?

I shouldn't think there should be a problem if you post details.After all you maybe saving others from possibly having the same thing done to them.Someone on here may be near to the place too.

What a cock,and one of the easiest cars to clone/ring back in the day,the only difference on the v5 being 2dr as opposed to 3dr therefore meaning a cheap shit xr3i which were 10 to a penny back in the mid nineties could become a far more valuable cabriolet.

With a simple alteration on the logbook,which no dumb 18 yr old bint in the Dvla would ever bat an eyelid over.

Still,nowadays it's a much more difficult prospect as of course finding any sort of mk4 escort is getting rare these days.

Shouldn't be too hard to find it again,there's not many good ones left plus that's got to be one that he's planning to ring as it's not worth a great deal in bits,as nice and clean as it is.

Pay a visit time I reckon,especially if there's plenty of cars there,Nitromors is a very powerful thing!!!!
