Potential Thieve Spotted Ilford Region or an enthusiast?

[aarc]

Hi all after a long time ive bought myself another e30, i still do have my fliptone e30 tech 2 tourer but is kepy in a safe lock up out of there area in which i live in Ilford, Essex East London. Ive decided to store my tourer away as firstly its my pride and joy but the nasty stories ive heard about 2 of my firends E30s getting stolen in the past few years and one of which was my ex car, and one of my cusins driveway.

ive just taxed my e30 its a red e30 2 door 320 se and its first day out on the road its fully alarmed with a leading brand alarm, imobiliesed with the alarm and with a steering lock, the car has fully adjustable coilovers and is lowered on bbs replica wheels i as many enthusiast have spent alot of money on this car and subsequently someone at 7 in the morning today in a silver tourer with a blown exhaust and what sounded like a 318 or a 316 decided to stop infornt of my e30 for a little while and then drive off? which has kind of left me paranoid as you can see why as mentioned previously

If this was you and was simply giving the car your attention and you do not intend to do anything silly my apologies wheras if your just a spotters and may return for a job at night lets just say youd have another thing coming you mate a few calming and motivating words and advice may help here fella zoners

Pony's an Illford boy isn't he? Was there any "juice" left on your wing after? Apparently it's his calling card

Illford and east London in general seems to be a lot spot for E30 thefts.

I'd bet money on them being on this forum and probably reading this very thread.

Most likely a small crew with a lock up taking cars a breaking for parts.

Did it have a BMW gearbox?

Chances are this was another e30 "enthusiast" or did they have a big fuck off neon sign as well stating "we is gonna nick your ride innit"?

Car thieves rarely rock up with a loud exhaust and sit outside your house casing the joint. If they did, they would not be stealing many more cars.......... Stealth is the name of the game.

I didn't think E30s were valuable why would they want to steal your E30 ?

He also understands ur fears as he has had a skyline that was been nicked from his house as he went in for litrally two mins....it is a lovely car though you have. was it at beckton on the sat by anychance...i took my calyso four door there?

Hmmmmmmm

[pony]

E30 parts aren't surely worth that much money except the LSD or you have Sport Evolution

[bigbird76]

No pony E30's and all of the parts for them are going for peanuts on ebay didn't you know???

[pony]

Try going to a BMW Dealer bruv so you got a proper BMW innit

[bss325i]

Ask a fragger what parts are worth!

Especially when there is captive market for them!

[bigbird76]

I was there sat night saw a few e30s there

[pony]

I thought most people in Ilford have E92 M3s and wouldn't be interested in 320i ?

[ross_jsy]

It's a bit easier to steal an e30 than a new car. Then strip it for bits or rag it and burn it

[Gert_8]

Hey, if they are reading this thread as suggested Pony's car only has New Genuine BMW parts on it and he's local.
