My car was stolen from Wokingham Berkshire between 7pm and 6am on the night of Sunday 28th April.

F276 RPA Lachs silver 325i touring lowered 40mm on 15" BBS with Grey leather comfort interior. Very nice up together standard looking car not your usual rot box.

Any info or if you hear of some parts matching the description let me know.

I will try and get pictures up in the next day or so.

Sorry to hear about this, seems Tourings aren't safe anymore either.
Glad I keep mine insured, even though it hasn't seen a road for 2 years :roll:
Hope it gets returned, though doubtless, vermin will probably have stripped it by now.
Makes me sick scum just helping themselves to whatever they what :x :x

Thanks to jimmyspeed for finding the car. Unfortunately burnt out but at least I know the outcome.
Would love another one but this has put me off for now.

P1ss take! why steal a car just to boot it around and then set a match to it.

Hope who ever stole it stripped its goodies for profit atleast, hate seeing cars being stolen to give some scum bags a bit of fun for 30mins and then set alight.

Eh? You think it's ok for scum to make a profit fencing stolen parts from someones pride and joy?? :? Get a grip!

I hope they ended up with 3rd degree burns the c**ts!!!!

Everything was still on the car. It had been thrashed around the woods before crashing in to a tree backwards and then burnt out. I'm hoping the LSD might still be salvageable.
If anyone wants to upload a photo I have one as I can't put them on here.

:roll: oops my bad

I ment its sometimes better not to find the car at all and hope its still out their somewhere rather than find it down the road burnt to a crisp.

Its really disheartening to find something you have spent hours of blood, sweat & tears on set alight by someone who wanted nothing but cheap thrills at some one elses expense. If this happened to me i'd probably not purchase another e30 but if my e30 went MIA and was never found again i'd find it easier replacing it.

IMO :)

This was honestly the best car I have ever owned, and kept for more than 5 minutes I put hours of work into it. Hopefully this will encourage a few of you to buy the best security you can afford. I only wish I did rather than making sure the mechanicals were perfect.
