A friend needs your help.....

on Sunday morning at 3 am there house was broken into in Basingstoke, Hants and the keys for the Scooby were taken which enabled them to take the car.

Can you help find this car?

the number plate is RJ51 XVU and is blue in colour and has modded head lights.

if you see it anywhere please email me or call the Police direct as it should be on there system by now.

Please try and help as this car was their pride and joy.

(moderator - please hold this for a week or so, Thanx)

Presumably it's a bugeye, but is it a WRX, WRX STi, STi Prodrive, non-turbo, etc.?

Hope he finds it - I'll keep my eyes peeled, but would help to know the model to look out for!

There is another website specifically for reporting cars that have been stolen lest any member of the public sees them out and about....

I think it's twoc.com

i.e. Taken WithOut Consent!

Try that!

Sorry to hear of this and best of luck recovering it.

I can't believe it. I thought that sh*t only happened up north, not in the town where I live!!

Where exactly was this?

I'll def keep an eye out for the car, but I imagine sadly its probably long gone now.

I will keep my eyes peeled for you, 2 scoobs stolen from surry turned up in Feltham last month. I work for a recovery company and had to recover both cars. Both classics though. It seams that a couple of local twocers have taken a fancy to them,so i hope its not them again.

On a seperate note though,i had my N/S/F door glass smashed just before christmas.....The odd thing though....Nothing missing????? I have tinted side windows,and would appear that they held up for long enough to put them off thankfully. Hope its not someone trying to size my car to find alarm type etc

I swear, subarus should come with two rotweilers in the back seat as standard, and a snake which comes out of the seat in a flap where the crotch is usually positioned. What a set of muppets, dont know what they get out of it?!?!? These problems arent being dealt with firm enough by the law i swear, if they upped the punishment for people who did this im sure it would soon stop. gud luck with the find mate, sorry to hear.

Bad news - everyone's nightmare.

I've posted a link on imprezasport.net to spread the word.

Do you want it back or, like me, would you want paying out to start again?

I shall try and get a pic of the car but as you can imagine they are well and truely P***ed at the moment!

As well as nicking the keys for the car they also nicked a purse and wallet and also another set of keys for a van.

They live off kingsclere road, however that all i can say! (i'm sure you understand why)

but i think it is most probably in about 1000 bits by now being sold over the internet.....

do your bit fellas

dont buy second hand parts unless they are being sold by the owner (easy to find out with a few open questions, like "is that spoiler supposed to have parts of the boot still attatched to it?)


if people dont buy the parts they will only nick your car for joy riding or bank jobs (cuts the reasons by a third!)

that old thing about "subaru's are bank robbers choice for jobs" how factual is that? , we all know plod likes to take a "special" intrest in the scoob so surely the theiving scum would be better of in something a little less obvious?




plus the understeer/piston slap/petrol smell/tramlining/bland interior/crap tereo/loud exhaust/mpg/engine warning light flashing all the time would make a getaway ,well.............. just horrible.

(last part is to try and put the ***** off)

If they took the keys then there is a high chance its long gone, easy to sell on and'or to ring as there will be no break in marks. A few years back i was followed home (didnt know it at the time) they waited until the one night i didnt out my car in the garage and came back to tea leaf it. They knew what they were doing and a neighbour said she saw a plain white recovery truck waiting at the bottom of the road. The police said it would have been to order and put on the truck and taken far far away. Luckly they missed cutting one wire on my alarm and it went off. They must have really wanted my type r as there were 2 locked and alarmed cars parked behind it that they would have to move to roll mine out.

These w4nkers will go to any lengths.

If they do get it back it wont be a nice as they left it.

Bump.

I now know of several people that have had cars stolen using the original keys, hide your keys or take them to bed with you, thieves need shooting!

Not the bestest of advice, i myself leave my keys hanging up in plain view, reason for this is the car is replaceable, my wife and children are not, so if fookwit wants to break into my house and nick the car there is no need for him to attack/scare them to get the keys, there right in front of him and the quicker he is out of the house the safer it would be for my family.


thieves need shooting!
Now that i agree with
