Ok I have an update............today I got a call from old club subber he musta been driving between Welly and levin. He noticed a cop had pulled up a van which was towing a car......the car was mostly covered but he saw the mags and a bit of the car sticking out and recognised it straight away.............so he pulls over to chat with the cop who's by now run the plates (yes the dumb f***s still had the original plates on it). Turns out it's my car but he couldn't tell me what condition it was in or whether anything was missing cause it was covered

The cop called me to confirm it was my car but he was going on his donut break so wouldn't be able to take a good look at it until tomorrow. he did say something about the bonnet and boot missing. Couldn't tell me anything else 'cept they had charged the driver with receiving stolen goods. They wana keep the car till early next week to fingerprint it

So tomorrow I mite cruze up the line to see what state the old girl's in........I'm dreading it but happy she's been found

Thanks to everyone for your support and keeping a look out for me.................I'll post up what I find when I see the old girl

i wish clubsub had a like button

-thats fantastic news, fingers crossed theres not too much missing but im sure the clubsubbers will band together and help sort it!!

[ClubSub Mum]

Awesome that they have caught someone. Hope the car is in good condition still. Keep us posted.

The cop called me to confirm it was my car but he was off home so it'll be tomorrow before he gets round to checking it out.........he did say something about the bonnet and boot missing.

Heck yes!

If it's not engine-less I'm sure insurance will reimburse you for repairs and then go after the filthy monkeys for the cost?

A better-than-most turn of events though!

*internet high 5"

yus!

[madmike]

Awesome news Joe!!!

Hopefully not too much is missing..

I think when you find out how she is you need to post up a "required parts list"

Anything i can donate to the widturkey repair appeal just let me know.

[mattapo]

Awesome they got it back and charged someone

[rokn3rd]

* great success!

[wildturkey]

so looks like me and a few lads will be cruzn to Levin to suss it out tomorrow.............will take pics

[T.Rev]

Good spotting..hope its intact/ish

[Fizzy Toucan]

Awesome News!

[DacerX]

thank god it was found, mine was never recovered so its good to see that sometimes good things do happen

[Guest]

Well done . im f'n happy for you ! ! yes please take pics

[calibre]

Glad to hear its been recovered mate, but I can't understand why this keeps happening from that stadium!? my brother in law had his mint worked V7 Sti taken from there a while back (of course never seen again) and its still going on so frequently...!? are there not cameras getting these f***s when they enter/leave?

[wildturkey]

no cameras in the stadium carpark

[wildturkey]

so I saw the RS today and it was a bit of a mess..................especially inside. But...........i think it's all fixable over time. The engine (minus some bolt on parts) was still there along with all the shocks, mags, 4 pots, K brace, aftermarket sway bar and links.

they had swapped the front seats out for sum shittas and the inside trim was mostly gone. A few of the door cards were gone and of course the door locks were munted. The boot was missing along with the rear speakers and parcel tray and the rear strut brace. The 2 front guards were gone along with the front bumper, headlights etc......also a few dents and scratches

check it out...

[Bazza-NZ]

Was your turbo still there?

I'm sure that over time you can fix it all up, If there is anything you need, PM or text me and i'll have a look through my stuff for you. I don't have many BC parts left anymore.

[gazzy2000]

wicked, you'll fix it up no worries, get yourself a GPS tracker this time yea?

[wrx_lou]

Pricks. Good you got it back though.

[subout]

they taken the turbo and replaced it with a VF10 and a crap as exhaust

[Fizzy Toucan]

Did they say what was happening to the pricks who took it?

[YVNE]

I dont really get it- why would they replace bits? I thought theyd strip what they needed and leave the rest? Awesome on the find though joe, will be plenty of people here more than willing to help ya out.

That sucks big time indeed. I hope insurance might be able to cover some of it? otherwise im sure us clubsuber could help out

[Stoffa]

just remember if the insurance company want to right it off you get first option to buy it back, not sure if they normally deregister when that happens, but I guess your wanting it back on the road so you can always strike a deal with whoever your dealing with at the company. they're usually open to that.
