Stolen E30

[Speedtouch]

Hi Zoners,
Please can you keep a look out for my Diamond Black E30 325i Sport, registration F38 FNW, which was stolen after being parked in Herne Bay, Kent sometime after Bank Holiday Monday evening



Distinguishing 'features' are a badly painted bootlid with no badges, BBS centre caps missing, and an unusual Silver-grey leather interior with chrome gearlever surround and handbrake handle.

Chassis number is WBAAA12090AE52429, Engine number 20564545.

If there are any sightings or rumours of its wherabouts, please let me know, either by PM or on 07761 771956, or tip off Herne Bay police on 01227 762055.

Thanks,

My eyes are fecking wide open mate! I'm up the road in Canterbury and will keep an eye out on the road. Also on ebay for parts locally!

Herne Bay seems to be full of nasty druggie bastaards at the moment and I wonder what they would do with it.

Very determined to help out here

Did you have an alarm or anything (sorry just curious)?

Barstewards.

Where in Herne Bay EXACTLY did you park it? If you don't mind saying. I know a few people over there who have lived there since God was a boy so they may know some useful info on where stolen cars end up.

[Simon]

I've put a sticky on this for you. Sorry to hear about it, hope you get it back in one piece.

These cars are to easy too steal, a lot of people don't realise....

Please keep us updated.

Hi mate im just up the road in Sittingbourne and will keep eyes open! It would probably be well worth you going to your local scrap merchants and leaving some details there as chances are the car could end up at one... also have a good look around the countryside/shitty areas/gypsy areas where it could end up dumped. GOOD LUCK!!!!!

[Speedtouch]

Thanks guys! Car has an alarm/immobiliser.

[doctorspike]

sorry 2 here that man

[toby]

Email just circulated to two groups consisting of several hundred locals including details and requests for info.

[Speedtouch]

Cheers doc & Toby,
Only owned it since February, and was working on getting its issues sorted - so far, new cambelt, waterpump, handbrake shoes, just renewed the tax and insurance with a new company too, so I doubt they're going to be impressed

[spp320i]

Sorry to hear about it mate, I feel for you.

Will keep my eyes open around Orpington and on the bay, just in case.

Good luck.

[j3nks79]

Ill keep me eyes open too mate. I live in deal and work in Canterbury.
MUGGY SCUM THIEVING F**kERS

[FlappySocks]

Sorry to hear that Maurice. That was my old car.

Are your e-mails broke at the moment?

[Speedtouch]

Thanks j3nks79, much appreciated.

Flappysocks, yes it's a right bummer alright, who knows where it will end up and what will happen to it. After all the work we've collectively put into it too

E-mails working fine AFAIK.

a 325i sport with rear drums thought they were all disc?

a 325i sport with rear drums thought they were all disc?

Where does it say anything about drums?

[Speedtouch]

Que? The car had disc rear brakes, though I replaced the handbrake shoes in the internal drum part!

[hennared323i]

I'm over Sandwich way, I'll keep my eyes peeled fella

[sam325is]

[Alex]

[cliffybabe]

[Gortour]

: : :

Hunt the b'stard down and kill him...

Sorry for your loss Maurice. Hope you find it (whole) and get it back OK.

Best of luck.

[Grrrmachine]

I've spread the word around Birchington (where my family are) so if a car like that drives along the Canterbury Road it should get noticed. Have you phoned Reclamet or the Universal Salvage Auctions to see if it's made an appearance there?

[Rosc0PColtrane]

Good luck in recovering it, my fingers and toes are crossed.

[maxfield]

A lot of cars round here are going missing, not your usual Fiesta, Nova etc

Good luck in finding it dude!

[Steve-E30]

Will pass the word around east sussex mate , Had a call from the guy who had his evo stolen last year , Some may remember the thrad , We got the car back in 1 piece and the guy went to prison for his offences , Hes now back out and already scammed a skyline like he did to my mate , Bastards the lot of them
Will pass the word about and fingers crossed for you mate

[78dude]

Feeling sorry for you dude!
Its horrible that you cant keep your motor alone and some one have stoled it...

[jim-bob]

scum, sorry for your loss,

[gareth]

shhiiiit dude, you must feel awful right now i've never had a car nicked but a bike and 2 stereo installs have gone walkies in my time. it's a horrible feeling

i'll keep an eye out round this way

[Speedtouch]

Thanks for the comments peeps. It is a grim thing to happen, not to mention inconvenient.

I e-mailed the details to Reclamet earlier today and toured around some likely haunts locally including a gypo encampment , but no sign of her as yet. It's the first car I've had stolen in some 20 years of driving so that's good going I suppose, but goes to show the popularity of the E30 - beef up your security folks!

The only saving grace is there was hardly any fuel in the tank. Is it possible to reclaim the tax without the tax disc?

[eko]

Gutted for you Maurice and fingers crossed it turns up soon
Maybe out of order saying this but lets hope its not one of the 26k members on here who has nicked it to strip of its goodies

Good luck mate!

I've asked a mate to have a look around Zen in Sandwich tomorrow. Off to check Copart (formaly universal) now

[Speedtouch]

Thanks hennared323i I've sent Copart an e-mail with details of the car.
