Came to use the car yesterday only to find that some theiving little ****** has made off with the rear spoiler from my STi.

The car was in covered, private parking away from & unseen from the road so either someone has seen where I live & decided they want to releive me of my hard earned property or some opportunist has come across the car & the spolier is now destined for Ebay....

What's frustrating is that it's taken over 24 hours & 6 phone calls to the police to actually get someone out to check for fingerprints & I'm still waiting for someone to come & take a statement....

Gotta decide now which replacement spoiler to spend more hard earned cash on & fit, either like for like STi 5, or something different. In the meantime if any one sees or is offered a STi 5 spoiler in white in the South Woodham Ferrers / Chelmsford area.................

how much do you want for either spoiler

Izzy

Cheers for the sentiments guys.

I kinda think it may well end up on "a certain well known auction site", but even if you do have suspicions how do you prove anything without there being any decernable markings, let alone getting it back.....

I've a few things going on at the mo so I'll wait a week or two before sorting a replacement.

I hope it is not another scooby owner As they should no better. BUT if it was a dirty little bast@rd that stole it lets hope we find out who it is and make there sh*ty little life not worth living for...

Sorry to hear about your bad news bud and will keep my ear to the ground for you...

How did they get it off without damaging yoor boot??

Look out for a white corsa or saxo driving about with a huge rear wing!!!

Izzy

I guess I was lucky - would want to say the thieving scote was "careful" - the wing was pulled off, breaking the plastic retaining clips.

Yup. Eyes open for "unusual" car / wing combinations....

Cheers guys. I hope too that it wasnt another Scooby owner........ More likely to end up grafted onto some Escort or other, or flogged on that well know auction site.......

Izzy

Well, the police arrived yesterday evening to look at the crime, take a statement & start investigating. I must say that they were apologestic for the delay in attending, & dispite the aparent lack of evidence they did take the whole matter seriously.

The PC's view was that as the wing had been "removed" relatively "carefully" without causing much apparent damage, it had been stolen to order - either locally or for someone wanting one elsewhere. I'd hate to think that a fellow "enthusiast" would stoop to such things, but in the world we live in I guess it's a real possibility & let's not kid ourselves that ownership of a particular make of car does not make a law biding citizen......
