Locost on hold!
Everthing was going slowly but smoothly and the chassis was starting to take shape and i had finally decided what engine to go for then!!!!!!
Some BARSTARD nicked my calibra 4x4 turbo that i was slowly putting right!
Now i have no car and no cash to buy engine for locost as the money intended for that has to cover my excess and other bits and pieces!
Worst thing is knowing i had to young kids in the house and i didnt hear them take the car which is alarmed! They could have easily been in the house!
BARSTARDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They want a car! Work for it!

Sorry to hear about this mate,
Look on the bright side, one day they might nick one and crash and burn.
Let's hope it's soon!
Cheers
Chris
Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

Unlucky mate- hope you get it back- you never know!
My friends car was nicked the other week while he was out. They broke in the back of the house, grabbed the car keys sitting there, went through the
house helping themselves to the the DVD (but nothing else in the house ) went out the front and drove off in his car.
When he got back later his suspicions were first raised by finding his car a few hundred yards down the road from his house!
The thieves had driven off in it, and it had broken down.....
Can you imagine the look on the bastards faces as their quick gettaway came to nothing!
Anyway condolences on the car- can you not carry on with the chassis and sorting any other 'cheap' bits until you get the donor engine etc?
Cheers,
James

Stolen cars
I had my Clio diesel stolen 2 years ago. What you don't realise is that it costs a fortune in insurance premium. I pay to insure my no claims now,
plus replacing the motor etc. There is a case on text this morning where a teenager in a stolen Mondeo has suffered serious head injuries during a
police chase on Hessle road, Hull. Who do you feel sorry for? They will probably get sued and the taxman will be paying to keep him for the rest of
his life. The car owner will noy even get a mention.
yours, Pete.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

My condolences Gremlin. I've had it done to me a couple of time, cut of their hands & tatoo their crimes on their forheads. At least then we would
know who they are!

Sorry but shooting is far to quick and the waste of a good bullet (they should be saved for politicians).
