levered the lock and stripped the interior then tried the boot lock and jammed the lock closed, went straight for my car and did not touch the other drift/track cars in the yard

That sounds like someone who knows what you do, been keping a eye on you too.
If they've stripped the interior, they knew they had time on their side.
It happened to me, ba5tards stripped my whole house and left me with just my 3 piece suite in the house and nothing else.

Sorry to hear that Jason. I'm maybe being thick but I assume it's the track car that had fixed bits stolen from it as opposed to bits lying in the back of your V8 that were pinched from the street ?

I ended up taking Rav's manifold inside the other night as I was anxious someone decided to rob my daily that night and I'd be a monkey down.

I'll keep my eyes peeled on Ebay and other websites. But you wanna get yourself checking some other forums, are anyone else you know in the area that does the same kind of thing as you with track cars.


Because if they knew what they were after and they new they had time on there side, like Rav said...Then I bet you know them too, might not be someone close but its a bit fishy.

Jason - any joy with the cops? :mad:

Amazing how nobody has any faith in the police anymore.

Ill keep my eyes open as well - look like pretty specialised stuff though - somebody would need to be into that scene.

I've now got the location of the yard, give me a phone Jason and I'll ask the dodgy characters I know from there. I grew up in that town so have a unique insight.....

You've my sympathy - I was woken at 4am today by some scrotes with replica pistols trying to get into our garage who'd gone to the trouble beforehand of cutting the tyre valves of any vehicle I could have made it out to the road with.

It seems the season has started, again. Hope your stuff turns up.

Probably just coincidence that this seller is relatively near to you but hey, you never know.

So sorry to hear about your lost mate The Police emm what police they are only good at catching people going over the speed limit. your going to have to do most of the work yourself and with some help from us keeping our eyes open and our ears to the ground.
These arsewipes are more than likey to ly low for a while or put it in aonther off roader or maybe it was stolen to order..Anyway i do hope you get all of your gear back soon..

Sorry to hear this mate.

Don't wish to piss on your parade but I would think your gear will more probably be used in the thief or someone he knows car, rather than going for sale.

Sounds as if they knew that, that stuff was already in your car. Might be that they've seen it at some meets or something like that.

The Internet can be a bad thing sometimes especially if people quite innocently say things about their car's or others car's.

Given where it was stole they left a lot of OEM stuff which was worth more and easier to sell untouched I guess it was stolen to be used or they already had a buyer setup.
