Yea I work part time in a car performance shop that mainly deals with Honda’s we often get lads in that we have never seen before trying to sell us parts, you can spot the genuine lads from the Scum quite easily the Scum are politely told to F**K OFF. Will keep an eye for ya just in case they decide to send some parts over the water. But heres hoping you get it back in one peice

It'll have to be sold for parts as unless they get it over the water it'll be found out if they try and sell it and people will ask questions as to why they have it etc!!
It ain't just a joy ride its been planned. When I sell a car I always make sure I'm not on my own as anything can happen if a couple of lads turn up - as we now know!
I hope you find your car in one piece mate. Insurance is a pain as they won't pay out on a stolen car for 4 weeks or so!
Just over a month ago we were having some building work done on a project next door and some guy dressed in a workmans Hi Vis jacket walked down the drive (only way in or out), found the keys to a brand new transit van, got in and drove off!!! WTF!?! I live in a really nice small village too, blatently my village has been a target the last few months.
Other bad story - I had my car (RS Turbo) up for sale on a friends forecourt in North Wales when I started uni, thus didn't have the car insured and wasn't insured on the garage policy!! :roll:
Anyway engine was pulled out of it overnight?!? and I was left with the bill! so I ended up just scrapping it!!
Final story - my old MD bought a sweet BMW 635 CSI back in the day. He had it for a week and it was stolen, completely disappeared from the face of the earth until about 2 years ago. It was found speeding in Germany?! Didn't know you could speed there lol!!
Anyway good luck Woolz, if you need any advice when you get it back gimme a shout. Dave at steels (no pun intended) helped me out alot with replacement locks. I think I'm the only person with two official keys

I fear that the engine might be sold to an unsuspecting Elise/Exige owner as they seem to be in huge demand.
there seems to be a huge increase in "stole-to-order" high performance cars. a thread on a forum over this side of the pond saw a poor chap lose his EK9 CTR and find out that about 8 high performance cars (including evo's etc) were stolen in the republic, uk plates stuck on them and then boated over to britain. as bizarre as it may sound, woolz's car might be part of a bigger scheme. nasty stuff... human trash that does this...
sorry 2hear tht mate, its not nice when it happens, most likely it is stolen 2order and will b shipped overseas.
Im from N Ireland and i remember last year there must ave been a steal 2order list cause in 1 nite bout 10 high performance cars were stole from r area and never found, every thing from scoobys, evo, etc
Hope u get ur car back mate

Woolz, any news chap?
yes but the scum could have broken into his home and taken the keys. that kind of thing is on a major increase apparantly because of how sofisticated alarms etc are getting. it's just easier for the human trash to break in and take your keys. :evil: ( which is the perfect opportunity to skull them with a maglite torch and *pretend* it fell off the shelf that was over their head )
