gus the bus Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Thieving barstewards hope you find the car and not in bits! I'll keep me eyes peeled! Gus
mystery machine Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 That's pish mate I'll certainly keep my eyes peeled, and I'll take a closer look at anything I see parked up that looks like your motor. Hope you get things sorted soon, whether that means actually getting the car back, or getting hold of a nice replacement with the insurance money.
colin_ross Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Gutted for you mate. I pass that way every day and will defo keep an eye out.
mctwistuk Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 gutted mate. hope you get it back soon.

Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 thanks guys you all know as well as i do that it'll be in bits though. Gutted
scoobzie Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 (edited) in all honesty m8 it might well be parked up some were just keep a open mined look at the boy who had the skyline stolen it was parked up in a underground carpark 2 miles from his house did the car have any security on it Edited September 22, 2008 by scoobzie
mystery machine Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 you all know as well as i do that it'll be in bits though.It's always a possibility that it has been stolen to be broken down. Sickening, considering the work you've put into it.Still, if you're resigned to that, one comfort you can draw is from thinking about what you might replace it with. It's the inconvenience (paperwork, telephone calls) etc that piss me off about this kind of thing.
Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 It'll probably definetley come to nothing, but i've been on the phone and i'm going a drive just now Replace it? i put in an offer for a 250k house today! I'll be replacing it with a pair of running shoes
corsa Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 One of our private clients owns the BP garage at South Street, i will ask him in the morning to check the CCTV in case they came back up that way. Will update in the morning. Davie.

I'll be replacing it with a pair of running shoes C'mon mate, you don't mean to tell us you were depending on a car insurance payout to help fund your new house purchase? Your car insurance should cover you for a replacement motor, no...?Must be a nice house, BTW...
Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 No, i wasn't bargaining on insurance money to put towards a house, but i just spent 2k on the car that i won't get back, and they'll no doubt offer me **** money for my car, i'll not be able to replace my car to something of that standard with the money they'll offer me, and if i get given a wedge, tbh i'll probably end up having more important things to spend it on than a nice car, seeing as between us, me and my gf currently have a stolen scoob, a shogun, 2 106's and a merc horse lorry! Apparently it was spotted just after 7 in kilsyth tonight though, with 3 guys in it, updated the police and we'll see what happens
Guest Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Oh, and Davie, that'd be ace, if you could ask him/her to have a look. Much appreciated
J.C. Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 Flucking Cr4p My Impreza was parked less than a mile along the road at my work today, and my mate was at a course at the GTG training centre, not that that helps you at all. Hope it turns up John

scoobymark Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 gutted for ya m8, the barstewards got mine last year and it was also seen for a few days / weeks after, then it totally disapeared. good chance it will be the same milton scumbags that stole mine, worth cruising around the milton / possil area. don't hold your breathe for the police to do much as i am still wating on my wallet (thrown from my car) to be returned. I suppose 14months for some dna testing is about standard will keep a look out as iam fae kilsyth area. mark
Subarstar Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Sorry to hear about your car buddy, looks like a really nice example. Let's hope the cops get a hold of these scumbags and lock 'em up.
Guest Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 Cheers guys, the car had no security fitted. When i bought it, it was in dire need of tyres, suspension and a clutch. I got it back on friday there from getting the clutch done, and i'd done the other stuff. When i got paid in 2 weeks it was going for an alarm. That'll teach me. Took a drive about the Milton area on Monday night, didn't see anything, but i swear, if i catch the guy that done it, it won't be pretty. I've been promised its not in any of the "japanese" garages in glasgow, a couple of people are still trying to find out a few things for me though. The thing that's annoying me most, is the steering wheel. That was my Sparco steering wheel i've had in several cars, that my mother bought me a few christmas's ago, and i love it to bits. I can go replace it, but that's not the point. Got the house, in case any ones interested. Been an expensive week for me!
