Sorry to see ANYONE's car stolen, even if it is a sacred glittermobile, rebuilt burnout and "the thief done the owner a big favour and I am sure not too many tears are being wept......"

Hope this and the others get found and returned, and the thieves die a very painful and slow death.

fooking hell that is a very nice cab,sorry to hear some c..t has made off with it.

this must be organized if so many are being targeted,the only way to stop em is
as mr moore says hidden switch to pump an two abus grannit motorbike chains
round the front and back susp onto ground anchors .

takes time to lock up but the only way to get em off is a petrol steel cutter an
will make a lot of noise. :(
its the work of a "maniac"

Thieving dickheads, sorry to hear about your beautiful M3 being stolen. Police will be useless I'm sure as my car was stolen back around 8th december and I've yet to hear anything!

It's probs in bits by now sadly :( Hope it turns up whole

i had a vw passat stolen i no its no m3, the police were useless, i had done my homework (checking scrapyards and breakers yard) and found the shell of car after 3 weeks in a breakers yard, most of it was missing the chassis no was cut through the reason why i knew it was mine because i had my initials engraved in one corner of windscreen (sander practice for me), the police wernt called but we dealt with the matter privately.

its worth making some time and looking around breakers, scrapyard etc, and i really hope the you find those bastards and give them whats cuming to them, i hate thieves and liers!!!

Hi Guys,

i would like to thank everyone for their input with this thread and would like to tell you that yes the police are no good and cannot be bothered in ref to a stolen car.

A new bit of evidence we have seen is that when the thieves eventually got the car on the road we have seen cctv footage of them pushing the car down the road using a vauxhall zafira and you feel sick when you see the video not nice at all.

We think we will not see this car again but just another plea that if you see anything ref this car please do not hesitate to call the number on the thread.

8O If thats how they were treating it then it will probably end up in bits no doubt :(

Lovely looking M3 but i seriously wouldn't or couldn't leave one parked on the road, it would HAVE to be locked up out of view in a garage as i wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it as the inevitable would eventually happen in this day of age and scumbags.

Seems like this is definitely a trend, as I have I have just returned to London from a 3 month trip abroad, to find out that my Hardtop & light grey, heated front seats & interior have been stolen from my G Reg E30 Cabrio.

The car was covered at the back of my block of flats. Seems they came in the middle of the night... however, although there was exterior damage, the car was not stolen, & is still pretty much intact. Hopefully I can buy it back from the insurance co. & begin to restore it.

I would appreciate any suggestions on how I can get the best value from the insurers - as it was not insured as a 'classic car'.

Cheers!

Talk to Beemerlad, or PM him. He's an insurance guru. Good luck.
