  1. Flippin Nora have not been on here for months as I was stuck in saudi and the mother inlaw passed away and lots of other stuff leaving the Supra event on the backburner. Wish i had known earlier. PM'd regarding parts. Thanks Russ
  2. Hey no problem, I would not suspect any of my fellow genuine Supra enthusiasts. If the Tank costs less than £4000 for the day, then maybe I should rent it to remove the garage shutters and new locks rather than paying for a Court Order, Baliffs and Solicitor to try and enter the property to remove any remaining parts. This offer comes very close to the top of the list with anti - unfriendly colleagues offering a full scale search and recovery operation for a small fee and my Frontier forces offering a hound and hunt exercise if I can get the thieving individuals into the KSA dersert. All would be very entertaining.
  3. Good Day Folks (Well Maybe not) Just got off the phone to the police, this gets even crazier. My case is 1 of 12 being reported against Hyper S&R. Trading Standards are now involved putting a case together including Theft, Fraud and deception scam. Form an orderly que! What a wonderful world it is; time to emigrate me thinks. Im surrounded by wanabe terrorist crazy people, 900km from the nearest 1 camel town and I get less hassle and feel less threatened here then when Im home. Oh well at least the Sun is shining and it was chicken for dinner. Keep you posted. Regards Russ
  4. No idea unfortuantely. I would be searching if I was back in the UK. I have been informed Cheques as low as £60.00 have been bouncing, so any financial come back will be £0. I have to put a theft report into the police for all the new & old parts, so who knows who they will pursue. Once I have serial numbers hopefully they may track the parts down. Just all be aware some one selling a very cheap BC Stroker kit and Brand new V160 6 Speed box. I will publish the Serial Numbers once known so you guys can avoid buying stolen goods and even assist in the prosecution of the thieves.
  5. Ok Folks heres the latest - BAD BAD News Im afraid, feel sick to the stomach at the moment. Car was recovered last night; missing engine and gearbox. None legitimate individuals would not allow my engine (on stand and gear box) to be removed. New Parts including 3.4L stroker kit, studs, bearings, mounts and new brand new V160 box remove already to God knows where. About £25000 out of pocket now which makes working in the Saudi desert in 70MPH winds taste slightly more bitter. Contacted Insolvency Soilicitor today; spoke to police; baliffs and the courts. My only options at the moment are Insurance claim for theft (No claims bonus goodbye) or Court Order to enter the property on the off chance my remaining parts are still there; costing around £4000. So as you can all see this would have been less painful if I had dropped my trousers and bent over. Unfortunately the law is on the side of the Crooks and oportinistic buggers who took my parts and my new Public Enemey No.1 Mr Paul Roberts, Owner & Director of Hyper Sports and Racing. I really hope my loss is going to help someone in future avoid the Crooks and Mr Roberts Thank you all for you offers of assistance and advise. I really hope this gets sorted soon and I can carry on enjoying the Supra and the great folks associated with the club. Will let you all know the final outcome. Take care. Best Regards to all. Russ
  6. A real big and sincere thanks to all that have offered help and advice. I may need someone to look at the car to see what parts are missing, in the boot etc. or even go to hyper to recovered boxed parts (pulleys, turbo, hoses etc) if I can gain further access through the key holder. I will keep you all informed tomorrow once it's recovered. Best Regards Russ
  7. There is a slim possibility my Block and BC Stroker kit is with a company that Machines the blocks for Hyper. Does anyone know who Hyper used for block boring / CNC machining? A rough name could help, cant be that many CNC Engine machining companies in the North West.
  8. The only information I have is the keys have been passed to a part time employee who is providong access for recovery of cars. Ive just been lucky I found a company who had transported other cars and previously my car to Hyper who can do a swift recovery. No sign of going bump. Im going to loose a hell of a lot of trust with garages now. Going to loose a hell of alot of money too, £10500 in parts and the engine Plus turbo. May have to right it off at this rate. Will know the true story tomorrow once recovered and assessed missing parts. At leasts its sunny in Saudi. Might have to bring a camel back.
  9. It looks like the engine and new parts are missing, presumed stolen. Can the Police get involved then? Maybe a call to Citizens advice is needed. Hopefully getting the car recovered tonight. Fingers crossed in good shape.
  10. Trying that at the moment. Calling them back in 15 minutes. Also just found a company who have recovered 2 cars from there yesterday, they are hopefully going to do the recovery if they can get access. Thank you for all your support so far.
  11. Can the Police help is these matters? Unfortunately no local family.
