Hi all,
I came home last night to find my new gearbox for the corsa had been stolen from our back garden. now our garden is surrounded by 7ft fences, bushes and barb wire, so i know its not gone over a fence, there are drag marks to our gate, which has a lock on it, so whoevers taken it has a key. this doesnt bother me, as i'm 99.9% sure i know who it was. the reason for this post is, if anyone see's it, please let me know. its a black hammerite painted f18 with a 3.55 f/d ratio, and the 5th gear cover is pink. there is a decent reward for it. pics are in my w.i.p, clicky below.

cheers,

rob

[Stuart]

What kind of reward?


cue millions of people getting an F18 painting it and claiming its yours lol

[Ben]

No offence and im not taking the piss but has someone not taken this to wind you up as a joke?

TBH a F18 gearbox are not exactly rocking horse poo and only worth anything to a select group and even then not much!

Hope you get it back though.

[Edd]

P!ssed anyone off round your area lately ? :d

Hope you get it back tho

[Sloth]

the only people who know its there were me, our lass, and our landlord. you cant see into our garden at all. i know its only an f18, so its poo, but its the fact i was going to be fitting it all this weekend.:( i personally think its going to be weighed in. btw the reward is a crate of nelson mandella.:thumb:

[Stuart]

Draper will have an F18 round to you in a jiffy


Edd, I'd imagine the answer is "everyone" lol

[Ben]

Thats what i mean theres no massive value so its like its been done to wind you up.

[Sloth]

strangely i havent annoyed anyone. lol its not like you can jump over the gate, as its a passageway at the side of the house. i kinda think its our landlord, as his story keeps changing....;)

[blue_peg_16v]

i have an f16 here mate if needed

[Stuart]

perhaps he didnt want some stinking leaky gearbox in his back garden

[Sloth]

peg, that would be mint, what would you want for it?

stu, he lets our neighbour next door have stinking chickens....lol

[blue_peg_16v]

pm sent sloth

[Stuart]

stinking chickens are 'good' for soil... gearboxes arent :p Plus you cant get eggs out of a gearbox

[Sloth]

but a chicken cant handle a 2.0 8v strapped to it....lol

[Ben]

Perhaps the chickens ate the gearbox?

[Sloth]

tbh ive been tempted to eat one of the chickens. lol
btw, a major thanks to mr peg for offering a new box! roll on pvs...:d

[calibra-keith]

[mowgli]

sloth, i'm an old git & i know that i could get past the average panelled gate in seconds & remove a gearbox really easily.. is your fence the type with concrete posts by any chance????

[napalm_27]

and what did you tell him???

he said no after they had dragged it on the back and towed it away lol lol lol :p

Id say the same probs jipos wanting to weigh it in! I keep everything locked away me as i live in doncaster lol

[Mark]

Can't be very strong if they left drag marks to the gate, not exactly difficult to pick up an F18 and walk off with it, quicker and quieter too.

[Edd]

Haven't you been reporting people with undeclared engines round you way Sloth ?

Maybe someone came back for revenge lol

[napalm_27]

too true! if had the clutch arm attached it had a ready made handle!

[Sloth]

the fence hasnt been lifted, i checked that;)
the drag marks are what makes me think it was the landlord, as he's 77.....lol

either way i'm not happy. his loss, as it states in my lease, its his job to ensure security for the site, there fore he's gonna lose sme rent :d

upsetting your landlord/with-holding rent over a poxy gearbox you cant even prove he nicked ? recipe for homelessness ahoy lol

probably some skinny little koso then wanting to go bang the weigh in money in the roulette machines in bookies

[General Baxter]

i think hes more worried about the wind, that gearbox was stopping his house from blowing away,

how its coping with the little rain we had today ?

[Ben]
