Just goes to show anywhere you go there are always theiving cunts.
Whats the point of having nice things when all that happens is someone steals them.

Wow at a Ford show, jesus christ, how anyone could just rip them off your car and put on their own is beyond me, especially at a ford show

Just shows anywhere you go theres a chance of something being stolen

to be honest its the last place i expect something like that to happen,
Everyone i have ever met through the ford scene has been alright to be honest,
proves there are cnuts out there though, and yep they will no doubt use my jacking point covers on their car.

Trouble is, someone taking bits off a car at a Ford show wouldn't really attract attention, as who knows that it isn't their car? ... Cunts mate, utter cunts.

This is why I never leave my car unless it is on a stand, I just take my daily wreck if it is getting left unattended.

Im really surprised at that to be honest.

Ford Fair is probably one of the best/safest ford shows i ever go to, with the least amount of trouble!

Shame it has to happen.

Thats one of the only places I would expect 'bits' to go missing off mine.

That's why i never take mine to national day. Why leave it parked up by itself all day while I wander about

Wondered why you didnt pick up your parts!

So you got a S2 turbo no then, when did you buy that? I may have some jack covers in the workshop somewhere, think they are red so will need paint tho.

Your old man has got through a few RST's, sounds like a cool dad.

Which covers have been stolen mate, and I will have a look tommrow see if I have them.

What year is the car as i think the covers changed with the upgrades.

Is there damage to the car?

bad news fella, the problem is theives know where to hang out, in the car park out side the main stands, all cars sat there only a handful of people around and it's the problem that will always exist.
maybe a passion ford stand could be organised so most people can get inside near loads of friends cars, much safer.

There does seem more and more Chavs at ford fair these days compared to a few years ago. Guess as society degenerates the ratio of scum to decent folk will change and odds are some scum will like fords.

I remember this as I was parked about ten cars away in my r33 gtr and had fitted a carbon bonnet 2 days before.

The imprezza was well stripped

wheels
bumpers
headlights
intercooler and loads more bits

I have allways been careful after seeing that.

Im sure I caught some fella trying to pick my pocket. I was watching the 0-60 and some guy seemed a little close for my liking. I felt him brush past my wallet so I turned round and asked if he was gay touching my arse. He just laught the walk away very very quick. I didnt have enough time to let security know as he was gone befor I could find them.
Shame about your RST fella. What makes it worse is that its so special to you. Hope Lee can sort you out. Shows the Ford owners usually stick together

Thats the problem with these things. Its a wonderland of parts for scum. I over heard banter once at a cruise about shows like fordfair being the ideal place to go "shopping" for nice cars.
