Hi all,
I was sickened this morning to wake up and realise some useless scum piece of sh*t had stolen my E30 cab that I've own for 17 years off my driveway during the night.
These tw@ts would hate it to happen to them but more than happy to wreck other peoples lives.
After speaking to my neighbours it must have happened between 2 - 3am this morning.
The car was taken from my drive in Wokingham Berkshire.
Thanks to a lot of my friends its all over social media now so that should help.
This car means so much to me and I've just been in a mess all day and just not sure what to do with myself. Nothing I've ever owned means as much to me as this car, its been my pride and joy.
I had an agreed value on the car but the sentimental value to me far out ways the material value.
I've had a lot of happy memories in this car over the years including first dates with my long-term partner, just want it back.
If anyone is offered any parts or the car or even hear anything please get it touch.
I'm offering £1000 to anyone that has any info that will lead to it safe return.

Sorry to hear mate... i would be devastated and mine is a heap

The problem is now these cars arent up to modern anti theft and the parts are expensive so that makes them worth peoples time

I reallly hope you get it back...

Sorry to hear about this and i sincerely hope you get it back!

I dread this happening to me as like you my car holds many memories and huge sentimental value such as dating my now wife and both our sons being brought home from hospital after their birth.

The brass neck of them to take if from your drive way as well!

They are just low life scum.
I will never give up looking for it or parts. I built that car myself so I know ever inch of it.
I've always been into my classic cars but after this it just makes you feel it's not worth the hassle enjoying them because w@nkstains like this want to ruin that for you.
I have a few nasty people on the case now and 2 mates are in heavy biker clubs so they've put the word out.
It's just a matter of time before we get some names then they will get what's coming to them. Bunch of thieving c*nts!
Please pass on any leads or info you guys come accross

Nice one

Gutted for you, the scum that do this have no respect for themselves so find it impossible to appreciate it in others! Anyone who knowingly buys any bits from this vehicle wants processing for receiving stolen goods in short order!

They are just pieces of sh1t that don't have the talent or skill to build they're own cars.

Terrible news anyone's nightmare to be the victim of any theft. Have you any other photos? The above aren't visable to me. As said any sightings or parts forsale I'll soon notify. I hope you have it back on your drive as soon as.
