lucasdemoley Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Crikey thats quite a lot of damage, feel sorry for you dude. Atleast he left you something to twat him with if he comes back eh?!! As its basicly been decided that its a glazier van, it might be worth looking in the yellow pages and seeing how many operate in your area, as if its only one or two companys it will be a company van so might be worth ringing them up and asking, or alternativly if theyr local just popping to their wearhouse and seeing if the van is there. I also doubt alot of places will sell those/fit the side bits to the van, so you might be able to ask like a supplier/ local cheap bodywork place if theyve had any vans in wih that kinda damage. Depends how much you wanna find the person i guess. As per cctv, I know it ca be a huge bietch to get a look at the video. I had my car broken into at a cinema, over £1k of stuff taken and i was parked right by a cctv camera and they wouldnt even look at the footage (the cinema) and police didnt care. I also had my car broken into at the university carpark, I saw the footage with them getting into my car and the car they turned up in ect, again police didnt even take a look. I hope you get it sorted buddy without too much cost/hastle to yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to get a reply to this question from Kranz or Class One. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowland Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Bit of a long shot but if you have part of his indicator then you may have one or more identifying marks that can be used to narrow down maker and model for the van. Add that to the white colour and it being fitted as a glaziers van and you may well have enough to identify it, if it is from the local area. What I can't tell you is where to go to translate any marks in the glass into the info you need.... As I said it's a long shot (and I haven't read all the way through the thread so apologies if this isn't relevant). Hope you get it all sorted out.

MrRalphMan Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 Engineer has just been. All hangs on the price of the suspension components. He is going to be talking to the garage on Monday regarding the price of the parts. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
