If plod asked the question perhaps they have some info on someone in the local garage that may help? Obviously if you asked they'd not tell you who it was or where they work but one never knows could be of assistance as garages get visited by all sorts of sh1te. I remember one guy around chesterfield who would ride round the garages looking for a motor to nick to order, call into the garage speak to the mechanic and find out where the car lived before going round a couple of weeks later and nicking it.
Barsteward got his comeuppance in the form of 5years sentence, out in 2 1/2 when he proved a model prisoner, got locked up shortly after for GUESS WHAT another motor.

Something I forgot to mention....
The police have said that if it is recovered they will be sending me a bill for £105.00. This was quoted at me just as I was reporting it stolen. Talk about double wammy. Fcking disgusting. Police aint worth a ****.

Your insurance would cover that cost anyway. The Police use recovery companies who would charge them and in turn they charge you. Its no drama to you at all and is normal. Just send the bill to your insurance company.

In my experience you won't want the car back unless it has been recovered within a very few hours due to Tracker or somesuch. The vandals will have thrashed the living daylights out of it.
Your best bet now is for plod to find it torched or wrecked ASAP as that helps get the insurance claim underway pronto tonto, otherwise it can take a while as the insurers wait until they are reasonably sure it won't be found and will then argue over how much it wasn't worth!

Your thoughts mirror my feelings. If it hasn't been stripped it will have been shagged to death. There’s no way I want it back.
Done the dreaded insurance phone call this morning. Some of the questions I was asked were a definite attempt to wriggle out of paying. ******* insurance companies are as bad as the criminals in my eyes. My advice is to understand that insurance companies are not there to provide the service of insurance, only to make money. When something like this happens there's a long queue of people waiting to **** you over, the criminals are just the first!
