Default RIP Cabbie

Well its gone. Written off today.

Got stolen monday night, recovered tuesday morning, after being abandoned.

they took my new 17's, my cds, polishes, even air freshners.

they smashed my windows, the boot lock, the hubs are so damaged from where they dropped it that its undrivable, rear view mirror gone, steering column smashed, paintwork damage etc.

Police have fingerprinted it and took photos.

Claiming off my insurance which means i lose my no claims and premium will go sky high, doubt ill get another cabbie, or maybe not even a ford.

Look after ya cars. Thought mine was safe outside my house in a rural village in cheshire. Left the crook lock on my back seat. didnt have my aram fixed. my own fault.

Shitter!

Hopefully the forensics guys will get a match. You never know.

Hope the insurance pays out a sensible amount.

Oh crap....

Its becoming so common to hear that sort of things these days, so annoying. What need to they have to actually damage the car?... if only they could steal it, have a ride and leave it somewhere undamaged......

Keep your chin up!!

tis shit luck, but is it really worth claiming on the insurance.. if you have a lot of NCB to loose then its probably easier to just go out a buy another car..
Sound shit really and i know what everone will say 'thats what the insurance is for'
but they will get the money back one way or the other

That's some shit luck! Been there, so I can appreciate how you're feeling.

Let us know what CDs went missing, and maybe I can send you copies if I have them (I have quite a large CD collection) - as long as it's not Westlife or something

Keep similing though - you'll be back with a nice car again!
