Big Supes Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 There's some complete scumbags out there. I feel for the owner. I hope he gets it back in the same condition of finds a worthy replacement. Where about was it stolen from? I can't view the Facebook links. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 FB says Manchester area. With Supras being worth £100,000 in bits I cannot imagine it'll be seen again in one piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wile e coyote Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Be careful guys they are worth a lot now and not all owners have decent alarms or trackers fitted i know mine is 14 years old and when it goes back together it will be getting the latest fitted one that you can shut the car down by an app so even if they took the keys you can at least stop it in its tracks hope owner is fully insured Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon_RD Posted May 26, 2022 Author Share Posted May 26, 2022 Good news, Chris's car has been found. Its with the police, and appears undamaged 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 i don't know if that's good news or not. If my car was taken I'd probably prefer it stayed taken. I doubt its been found with the keys and they know where he lives. I doubt its adhered to all the speed limits while its been away. Any valuables will have been taken and they won't be worth placing an insurance claim against. i wonder if it was found by the police, I doubt that to. When I had a stolen recovered car it was only 'found' by the police because a resident complained about where it was parked. How I wish it had stayed taken, changing locks is expensive on a car.

Big Supes Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Good news. Great to hear it's undamaged. Personally, I'd scrutinise the car and if there was any signs of damage or potential damage I'd claim and use it as an excuse to refresh the engine, maybe go forged.
