my mates car stolen - as below

My car stolen from Stannington in Sheffield last night. It was on Stannington Road. This happened between the hours of 10.30PM on the 10/6/08 and 5.30AM 11/06/08. Rought guestimation of around 1.00AM as noises of a engine was heard ticking over around this time from people who lived where the car was. The car will have most likely been taken on a trailor or low loader as it would not start (hence why it was there)

Im not in any belief that the car will be seen again, but theres always the slim chance.

My guesses will be that it is going to be broken for bits. So if people could keep a eye out for anything which may seem like it has come off of the car, could they please let me know. Here is a list of things which are most likely to turn up :-

- Astra GSi front and rear bumpers in black
- 17" snowflake vauxhall alloy wheels in graphite grey with parada spec2 tyres
- Complete Z20LET engine with a dark red metalic rocker cover
- DTA S80 Pro engine management
- FMIC with S/S pipe work to fit a Astra GSi
- Tubular manifold
- GT28 turbo with a T3 exhaust housing
- Miltek exhaust system with a decat and down pipe
- Full Astra GSi interior (half leather recaro's)
- Blitz ID III boost controller (silver)
- JVC KD AVX33Headunit
- 308mm Astra GSi brake setup with black calipers
- Innovate LC-1 wideband with XD16 gauge
- Spax RSX coilovers

Think thats about it for parts the may stand out a little.

Couple of pics of the car :-

The person/people that did this need stringing up! I hate people that have to pinch off other people! It makes my blood really really boil! I tell you sumet if some one did that to my car Id be on the hunt looking for the scum that did it! Hope he finds who did it!

By the way nice motor!

yeah hes happy he thinks the fact that it was on nearly every car forum on the net helped he thinks it scared them off as it turned up just round corner from where it was stolen just sat there.

hes on about a custom loom for it now and better clutch so can up boost some more

Hi sorry to hear about you friends misfortune but glad he has got it back in one peice well kind of anyway !! If I was him I would get a tracker fitted then he will get it back quicker and should lower his insurance as well. I have a Smartrack system fitted on my car and the good thing is it can be moved to your next car,all you have to pay is a bit of labour to swap it over. Ive had great service from smartrack and the dealer who fitted it. Check out there website for your nearest dealer !!!
