eddyramrod Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 What a bummer! I've just seen this on FB, hope it turns up intact. The penalties for offences like this need raising to Dirty Harry levels. EssDeeWon, Shite Ron and Wack 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lesapandre Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Sorry to see. Why wd these everyday classic cars be nicked? Parts, ring-a-ding or just for the hell of it? I know how terrible it is and how bad it feels - I had my Landcruiser stolen - I got it back luckily. I now put chains through the wheels. I will keep an eye out for these.

Dick Longbridge Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Were they stolen from the roadside? There must be someone with CCTV nearby that picked up something of the theft. Bastids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierraman Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Shitehawks. No disrespect to Rover 214 owners but it’s probably not been nicked to flog on and ring which leads me to think some pond life has joyridden it, hopefully it’ll be found in a lay-by or something not burnt out.

wuvvum Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 When Trigger's Astra was nicked off his drive it was joyriders who still thought it was 1992. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMC Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Strange both now stolen. Perhaps stored together but it sounds as if they were taken on different days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobdisk Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Oh shit, not more nicked. Hope they are found soon. Perhaps thats what they wanted my trailer for ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately unless the cctv is broadcast quality (shows unmistakable numberplates and faces), police are not interested, they said. If you find any, put it up on as many forums as you can.

tommytwo Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I dont think youcan be too hard on plod for not taking car theft seriuosly, its down to the courts and the soft senences they give out.. The cops get very annoyed when that happens, and it happens frequently. My brother owned a Triunph 1300 in the seventies, stolen by a 17 year old. He wrecked it by turning into a one way street and hitting a coach head on, the car was written off. Comes the court day and the guy asks for 66 other offences to be dealt with at the same time. The sentence? 6 months probation. No fine. Things have not changed very much in the intervening years, soft sentences are still the rule rather than the exception. I sincerely hope that both cars will soon be recovered and undamaged. Also, the missing trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
