well lets all keep our eyes peeled for a set of 9x16 borbets A ,which look in mint condition which could bring a lead in and what type of interior did it have mate and any other spec which is noticable. And lets hope we catch these w***kers.

As the car in the PH ad is not that far away wouldn't it be worth a look?
Putting an ad up for a car not yet acquired is a clever way to throw people off the scent?
Or even a call to see what spec it has. All the best fella.

And even with a garage, nothing is safe.

I know a fella who returned from holidays, he went into his garage to check his immaculate escort cossie and when he opened the door, the only thing to be seen was an empty garage.

Hope you get your cab back fella!

gives you an awesome break to get something with a real chassis. People who steal convertibles are just as gay as the owners

What a first class arsehole. Maybe too much wine on Christmas day.

Think he needs to sort out his unreliable status first before attempting humour.

Maybe he'll come back on and apologise, other than that you would expect the mods to deal with him.

I was in the middle of doing just that. Last thing I'd expect is to see a stupid comment in a sensitive thread like this. Not good at all :evil:

Barx - 1st warning citing baiting. No more silly one off comments please, especially without apology.

Back on topic please.

Ive been surfing ,and learnt that these cars are stolen by UK gangs(one gang caught Dec 2010) and end up in Cyprus or warmer climes where RHD is normal,with altered vins.I even read about an Audi parked up that was attached some device ,like a tracker ,to establish a
pattern of the owner movements prior to theft.
Some sort of movement detector,remote from the cars electronics with a very loud alarm,might work.Any boffins out there....
Im really sorry to learn about these thefts,and hope you guys get fair compensation or
find the cars.
