Marks Sri that was stolen has been recovered

Police just called me.

They acted on a tip off from a member of the public and raided an address in Neath Crescent, Bletchley, Milton Keynes.

It was with 2 other stolen vehicles.

The good news is that the damage is minimal and that mine was the only stolen vehicle the towccers hadn\'t started to strip. So K\'s alloys etc are all still on the car.

Should get the car back from SOCO on Monday/Tuesday. Bummer is I have to pay a Â£105 release fee to CDBrammel where the stolen/recovered cars are stored.

Police have the \'suspects\' in custody and will be taking statement from me later today.

And yes I will have my day in court to see the fcuking twoccers go down.

Update.

Spoken to CDBrammell

Alloys are gone. has 4 steelies in their place held on with 2 bolts each wheel.

All door locks are fubared

Steering column smashed to bits.

Stereo/Cd changer gone. (Dash has basically been ripped out)

All stuff in the boot, lewis\'s toys, Sub/Amp, Lexus lights are gone.

Has had a tin of grey paint splashed all over the new bonnett/wings I had put on the car.

The policeman I spoke to earlier got it all wrong. Mine was one of the cars that was stripped.

I am going to look at it tonight.

Don\'t think i\'ll be having it back.

Ok here are the pics taken at the storage yard. SOCO had still not been to \'print\' the car so couldn\'t get too close! Think I will be cutting losses, have a project in the pipeline re new car (for SPL or Streetbass comps) and hopefully pick it up this weekend. Was considering getting Sri back and doing the work and selling it but haven\'t really got the time. If anyone wants it for the engine etc, talk to me, release fee is Â£105 notes.

Engine Bay, Complete Air box assy has been removed.

My new bonnett, scratched and paint spill damaged.

Wing mirror and door damaged (passenger)

Not very clear pic, but cherrybomb exhaust is gone and also on right hand side, fuel pump (i think) is hanging down, all pipes cut.

Stereo and cd changer ripped out (cd Changer was screwed into glove box)

This is how they got into the car!

The twoccers TAG maybe? Mindless graffitti on roof of car

Still not sure Si. Will be seeing (and hearing) the golf this weekend at PVS DBDrag event, so will make a decision then, if I take it, I will be delivered on Monday!

Thinking of getting corsa back and stripping it out and walling that for SPL/Streetbass comps, as a project.

Will talk to you more tomorrow night!

Interesting Adam... car is in a yard in Milton Keynes.. what does the golf need doing to it?

Ok collected car today. (Well, actually had it delivered @ cost of Â£30) The release fee from the storeage yard was Â£105, should have been more as SOCO fingerprinted the car on Monday, but as the garage lost my phone numbers, they couldn\'t infom me it was ready for collection, therefore, they couldn\'t charge me the storage fee of Â£15 per day! Still not happy that I had to shell out Â£135 to get it back though.

Slightly worse than I thought, Petrol tank is actually missing and not just empty like i thought!, whole exhaust up to maifold join has been taken and not just the backbox like thought!!

Pics are in here

golf needs a starter motor
a general tidy up
and the interior re-fitting as it was taken out to be a track car but alas my plans have changed
