Oh sound man cheers lads means a lot

Yeah I put quite a bit of time and cash into it. Not as much as most of you lot but I had it like I wanted it anyway.

The insurance is what worries me. Too much hassle than I can be dealing with

Would'nt be a bad thing if it was just burned out somewhere by now tbh.

Tbh I doubt it will be the same for you now, even if they do find it. when some kids/local low life tried to steal my SJ (from my drive) it spoilt the hobby, its still not the same even now. luckily for me a neighbour disturbed them and I got to keep it. It's just such a shame, I'll keep my eyes open up this end.

It was taken about 2 years ago and I got it back. Cost me about £250 to change the locks and fit a new steering column. Including the fee from the recovery firm. Then I decided to have it half restored and it spent 6 months in the bodyshop. New arches and sills and a respray.

So iv enjoyed it for just over a year. I don't want to go through all the trouble again really. If I get it back its my instinct to fix it up again but I'd rather not now.

Yeah I understand that. These people have no regard for others.

My mate had a disco stolen. It had his baby seat in it and everything. What does that say about their personality
