There was supposed to be a 24hr security guard there! Apparently they tried to take another Cosworth that was on display also.

Thanks for all the comments and support, even though I don't own it any more it makes me so f*****g angry to think of it in the hands of thieving lowlife scum!!

If everyone can keep their eyes peeled and ears to the ground for any sign of it.

Spoke to Bonhams earlier, good news, it has been recovered! Don't know what condition it's in as it's currently with the police for forensics.
Will update when I find out more.

Just had a look on Bonhams website to see how much this sold for - £6325. The car gets a pretty good write up on the auction site so that price seems like a bargain.
