Paulus3476 Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 If you ask them - they'd tell you it's to remove any physical forensic evidence, but in truth, it's because they're just scum and don't like people having nice things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smwebb1993 Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 Things like this makes me thankful that I decided to put a cobra alarm system on my car, might even putting a tracker on it aswell I hope his insurance pays out otherwise that will be another kick in the teeth, I hope who ever did it gets run over by a gen 5 celica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewpot Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 F***wits that'll be full of reasons why its someone else's fault, bad upbringing, nothing to do round here etc etc. , and know doubt the insurance company will be difficult Think I'll start using my old disklock.

Briano Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 as this is very sad. I would just like to play devils advocate, its not uncommon up here for someone's car to be found burnt out as an insurance job I only mention this as I have seen the car for sale recently 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulus3476 Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 So, should we be celebrating that our cars have just gone up in value, now that they're that bit rarer now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulus3476 Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 If it was on facebook - then I'm not worried, as I don't use it. If it was on a mainstream site, then I am worried, I check them daily - especially for white ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 (edited) This happened to me a few years back ....just bought a BMW 320 - mainly as me and the Mrs just had our little girl and needed a bigger car. Had the car 10 days and it was stolen from Glasgow Green Football park, a day before my birthday. Guy had been waiting to see what teams arrived and in what cars, he found out the name of my football team, and went to the changing rooms and said he needed in to get his shin pads.....went through loads of peoples pockets, took phones, money and my car key. I got an update to stay they had found someone in possession of my key, only for the following day to receive a call to say they found the car torched in Shettleston....Said they had found who stole the car - it wasn't the guy found with the key. Three attempts were made to take it to court, he never showed for any of them and I had wasted three days off work, Ironically I have got a citation for another court date in February....three and a half years after it happened, I see it being a farce again. I won't even go into the hassle I had with the insurance company as well as Arnold Clark who tried to back out of their Gap Insurance Policy they sold me.

ams Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 I had 6 cars stolen from storage last year - all uninsured, that made me feel sick for a good few days.. Blimey mate / what were they? Did you ever get them back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulus3476 Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 No, they were never recovered - weighed in for scrap probabl. There was a widebody celica supra, Lancia montecarlo spyder, 2 fulvia 1600 HF, a sunbeam talbot Alpine, and a bmw 2002 tii - plus all my heavy workshop equipment, shotblasters, folders, an english wheel, and welding/cutting tools. It was a bad day ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
