STOLEN - My Mk1 BLU 412Y
Details;
1982 Mk1 Golf GL in black and red
1500 auto model
Full brown interior
Porsche steering wheel
Coilovers
Stolen from Rainham in Kent. Being realistic the car is pretty standoutish, and a prety rare model, so I'd imagine it'll be broken for parts instead of being sold on whole.
Here's pics of how it looked;
The only saving grace I have is the fact I'd removed the alloys literally yesterday afternoon, so the car is on standard steels.
Any info, or if you see any parts for sale that resemble those on the car I'd be really grateful if you let me know.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Thanks
Scott

I expect though it will be broken for parts as you say :evil:
The anoying thing with this is that the people who take cars like this know their value and must be in the 'scene' in one way or another…. makes me angry!!!
I'll let you know if I see anything including on Ebay.

Just had the Police round. Turns out another car in my street, and a car in the adjoining street were stolen as well. Someone witnessed them attempting to break into another car too, and have given their description to the Police. Hopefully something will come of it.

Tell me about it dude. I had big plans for the car too. Stopped using it literally yesterday afternoon ready to take it off the road and give it a revamp - new wheels, seats, paint, engine etc. As with the wheels I'm only glad it got pinched before I poured all the money into it.

Most people in this club know this car because it was Steve and Wendys.
If, whoever nicked it does try to sell the parts then they'll have to be ever so careful. If they do realise it is a well known car they may try to destroy it / get rid of it.
If you haven't already it might be worth phoning scrap yards in your local area.
Scrap prices are quite high at the moment and the pikes will take anything.
I'm sure one of us would spot something if it appears as parts in the usual places.
I'll put the details up on the picture board at the AGM if you like.

Quick update - Me and a mate were coming back from climbing today, drove down a road a few streets away from mine and saw my golf sitting there in the road!!! All unlocked, windows open, engine still warm. Called the police who said they'd come out, recover it for forensics but I'd have to pay, or I could just drive it back myself. So ended up hotwiring it and taking it home.
They've knackered the dash to steal the radio (which cost me £9), and they've stolen my £2.99 sunglasses but that's it. There was about £600 worth of tools in the boot which they left, and the rest of the car appears undamaged.
Back at mine now, wheels removed, battery out etc. Good luck stealing it this time idiots!
Happy days
