Looks lovely - very sad news though.

I hope it comes back in one piece.

[garycox]

I think it looks weird, the front end proportions are all wrong, and that dashboard is disgustingly hideous obviously.

 

Still, hope it gets returned!

[andrew e]

I hope it returns in one piece

[Wilko220]

I hope the thieves' eyes bleed when they see the dashboard...

 

Good luck in getting it back obvs.

[FredTransit]

have passed this on, hope it gets found in one piece

[RedSparrow]

I think it's a bloody awful thing but I hope the lad gets it back.

[Skizzer]

I wonder if it was nicked for its engine by a gang of unscrupulous Metro/Maestro owners? They'll be gutted when they find out it's a Vauxhall lump.

 

Good luck getting it back, obviously.

[Spiny Norman]

What we think of the way the owner has modified his car is irrelevant - it's someone's pride & joy and I hope that A) it gets returned intact, and that the cunts who stole it get peeled and rolled in chilli powder.

maybe the theives have no taste

 

 

if i had a cherished classic car, often stolen, and easy to sell with no I D, I would not leave it on my driveway

[RedSparrow]

Recovered, innit.

Lucky boy.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

That's wonderful news, and it's nice to know that everyone's efforts spreading the word do some good.

 

Maybe time for him to consider one of those tracking solutions I mentioned in the security thread.

[Spiny Norman]

Good to hear he got it back virtually undamaged. Also that it was as a result from a tip off from someone who'd seen one of these threads on t'interwebz.

FANTASTIC NEWS! I thought it would be in bits bt now!
