Paul Whiffin Posted November 3, 2004 Author Share Posted November 3, 2004 Your right, a week earlier I had 11 cars there, when they hit I had 3 cars sitting there so it couldn't have been a lot worse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 I cannot believe that the police have the car back, and the useless scrote had the keys, but YOU get charged for the storage and moving of the car. That should be sent to the little fecker that stole the fecking thing, i.e. or little Kosovan friend Ben.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Brilliant news Paul, well chuffed for you buddy. I was told that I had to pay the charges and then when it came to it and I arrived at the pound they didn't charge me anything. If they don't mention it again, don't mention it!!! DO NOT USE ANY FORM OF CAR CLEARNER TO GET RID OF THE FORENSIC DUST. products have wax in them which will only seal it in. Use washing up liquid on any affected areas and then when you are sure it has all gone then use the normal car products. Worth checking with the police whether the car will be registered Stolen recovered or not. Good luck and great news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Originally posted by Snowman Worth checking with the police whether the car will be registered Stolen recovered or not. I thought they only got recorded stolen/recovered if the insurance companies have paid out for it and the police find it in a useable condition. Therefore allowing the insurance company to sell it on as stolen recovered. Ben.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 That might be the case. I was told my car would be registered as stolen recovered. when we had our house burgled the police knew my car sat in the drive way had been stolen before but the HPI check that the chap who bout my car came up clean!!! Just a thought. when I sold mine I was completely honest about its history from the start, so probably could have got more for it if I hadn't mentioned it! who knows!

Paul Whiffin Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 Just been to see the car, needs new door trims where they ripped the shitty speakers out of it, new stereo where they ripped the fronts off the shitty units that were in there, new steering lock/column stalks/column surround, stereo dashboard surround, and they nicked the bloody air flow meter! Why did they nick the air flow meter? Strange. Gotta go on a parts finding mission now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulfurn Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 ARGH! Fucking wankers. Great news to hear that youve got the car back though, albeit a bit damaged. Really hope that you can fix her back up and get her on the road again. Regarding the theiving cunts - make 'em bleed mate. Really bleed.

Paul Whiffin Posted November 4, 2004 Author Share Posted November 4, 2004 Yeah, I'll get it sorted and back up to scratch, its only minor stuff really, could have been a lot worse, not a scratch on the outside of the car at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted November 5, 2004 Share Posted November 5, 2004 A result at last. Pleased for you Paul. Sounds like a bunch of lowlifes trying to step up, by nick car to nick bit in the privacy of a lock up, but still flogging crap parts at meets and pubs. Any real car thieves would have shift the car days ago. My guess the air flow meter was nicked for a 200SX, an essential mod when you plug in bigger injectors, turbo and remapping. My son has one for his car, but before you ask, put on recently, but before yours was nicked. £150 stinks, it is your car. If the legal system can’t get that back off the scum bag for you, I am sure your business partner can find a use for his tools. A tenner a tooth should do it, that would leave him speech less.

Paul Whiffin Posted November 5, 2004 Author Share Posted November 5, 2004 I think they must of nicked the afm as it had an HKS filter attached to it, there probably going to bolt it on there Micra or something, dirty low life scum bags.
