[NovaLad]

[simonr1]

c**ts

[Jack]

Where was it nicked from, what time, any parts worth mentioning?

Thats really crap mate. Was a great car :(

[kevster]

it was there a 8.30pm lastnight , parked outside my front door , westsussex , fewbits on the car like btb manafold, things like that

thanks kevin

[Dar]

Gutted for you mate. I will keep my eyes and ears open. I hope you get it back in one piece.

[smcgsi16v]

Gutted for you, will keep an eye out.

[Riggy]

gutted kev , hope you get it back without to much damage

[hendrix]

ahhh another minter. that sucks :( Hope you get it back in one piece unlike me (twice).
Chances are though being a valver it will be stripped by now :(
Makes me wonder if (unfortunately) this site has something to do with it, not members on here but 'visitors' who come look at the site, see these nice cars and then the cars dissappear, probably not but it was just a thought so no one have a go at me!

[Ernie]

Thats **** Kev.Hope you get it back.

[GRUNT 16V]

What A ****ter !!

[Steve]

Sorry to hear it mate, hope it gets recovered.

I'll keep my eyes and ears open around kent for you.

[5T1G]

Where bouts in sussex you from, PM me if you like. I live round this way too so will keep an eye out. I heard there was some sort of operation going down along the coast, littlehampton, worthing, goring that way.

[Adam]

Thats fookin ****e news mate :(

I agree with Hendrix tho. About people just visiting the site(getting the address from window stickers etc), and then looking in project threads to know every last detail of a certain car.
Maybe its time the Projects forum was moved to Club members section only.

[Markyc]

i'll ave a ring round for you kev im down ur way i do no certein people who were always offereing me nicked parts n cars!! turned them down out of princibles!!

[michael squeak]

t***s !!! tidy car that m8 aswell, hope you get it back fella,

[Austin_Nova16]

Savage news matey!

I shall keep my eyes peeled around the area.
Any suspicions or anything?

spk soon!

[novamadman]

sorry to hear that kev. im in northern ireland my nova was stolen on tuesday morning at 5.30 only i was lucky enough that i heard it reving away and alerted police straight away - fair play to them they blocked the road 5 miles away although they had to ram the back of it to get it stopped the two occupents ran but were caught shortly after

its so hateful because they tried to take my white nova in january only the window was frosted up and it was so cold the engine wouldnt heat up enough for them to get away, we heard them ran out and caught them although they drove away after a bit of a scuffle with me and my dad

they are absolut vermin, no respect for others property or effort you might have put in to your car,

words cant describe them i hope you get your car back in one piece kev and the gypsys ba5tards are caught

[goldengraham]

i have to agree with hendrix and lltn as anyone can view the nice specs people have on there pride and joy

i hope you get the car back without damage, fingers crossed for you.

[nova ian]

Thats terrible mate, Can't imagine how ****e you must feel.

I agree with what a few others have said about project threads being for club members only.

Hope you get it back, and the person/people who stole it are caught

[nova.joe]

boooo thats sh!t.


hopefully youll get it back unharmed..


Good luck.

[JSeymour]

unlucky mate, il keep my ears peeled like everyne else

[Iain]

That sucks mate, hope you get it back and in one piece.

Agreed with everybody else about the WIP section. Leave a comment here in the relevant forum. (http://www.pngclub.com/forum/showthread.php?p=755807)

[Lee]

Thats fookin ****e news mate :(

I agree with Hendrix tho. About people just visiting the site(getting the address from window stickers etc),

Not sure i follow you? How do you get an address from a window sticker?

Im not sure the site is responsible for these thefts, unfortunately Nova's are just easy to steal. Simple as that. Most of the thieving scum will be local to you and know whats in your car as they will have seen it about / probably looked at it before.

[hendrix]

I think he means the web address mate

[kevster]

the address on your profile i think thats what they mean !!!

[kevster]

which i have now removed !! i think others should as well ,
thanks for your coments i hope i do get her back ?!!!!!!

i spent some much time and money on the car its gutting !!!

No one can see the address on your profile apart from Admin.

Good luck getting tickets next year as im fecked if im ringing around for them!


Im gutted for you Kevster, its devestating when something of yours is stolen, but blaming the site is a tad naive IMO. Unless you phisically make public your address, its no more at risk being on here as it is from the crack heads who live locally to you im afraid.

lol, no sweat matey, wasnt annoyed at you, you have your car stolen! Id be ranting like a mofo right now if mine went walkies!

Best thing is to spam the hell out of all vaux forums. LOTNSR's was lucky(ish) and got his shell back, you might be lucky too. Chin up and all that.

[kevster]

yeah i will dude !!!!!!

[Novadaftman]

I think he means the web address mate

but why would they look at the web site sticker on the window when they would be on the site mate you know what a mean.

i don't think its got anything to do with anyone on this site i agree with lee novas are just easy to steal and thats that if you have a nova you just need to be careful and that the steps needed to protect it mines is cameraed up so i can see if anyone is near mine and i also record it at night on my dvd recorder so just in case i am sleeping and they try i always have something to catch them and being dvd i can enhance to great detail you know.

i also have other methods aswell just incase they try and get smart so mines is well protected from the B***ards..

Sorry mate hope you get it back but the more time its gone the less likely it in one piece mate sorry but true. do what others have done and plaster pics of your motor all over the net to get the word out you never no you might get lucky. good luck

[vaughanmc]

Hopefully you get it back mate - In one piece would be ideal :)

[Dave.]

gutted for you kev.. hope you get it back in 1 piece

[coochiSR]

Like i said when y arung me, as soon as i hear/see anything i'll let you know!!! Hope you get it back fella!

[Spudly]

Truly gutted for ya bud, i wish you the best of luck on her safe return, also posted link on justopelvauxhall for ya.

Need as many eyes and ears anywhere looking out for ya!

[Philsutton]

Thats sad news, its about time this country had some vigilantes to blow away drug dealers and general penises of society

[gazz]

kev really gutted to hear about this.
i will liten out for any parts that are going for sale...
hope it gets returned ...

thieving pikey ****s i hate them...all so they can take there drugs.:mad:

[Mike]

Kev, truly gutted for you mate!! But seroiusly, do what i did, spam the feckery out of every car site ever, tell all your mate, check ebay for all your parts and if needs be, get onto the local paper and make the stolen parts virtually un-sellable :thumb:

[Martin]

gutted mate,. hope it gets home safe

[scott.parker]

Dude thats well ****!

I know a mate of mine sold his old SR when some nobba broke into it, he said it just felt wrong that someone had been in and meesed things up, he felt uncomfy in the car from that day on till he sold it.

Shame as your car is so nice, hope it comes back fine.

Scott

[tom_beverley]

Funking terrible news Kev, hope you get her back ok. You can't leave anything for 5 minutes now, even outside your own house the tw@ts!

[JOV]

Its up on JOV already. Hope you get it back fella

[xShEpx]

what a bastrad

was it not far sale?

have you gone through the people who got in touch? any randoms that asked lots of questions and didnt amount to anything

check for people asking about alarms and stuff, and maybe check i.p. addresses to see if they live near you,

long shot, but ive known of people getting caught this way b4


hope you get it back mate, having a car stolen is really gutting :(

[Ste L]

[kevster]

[Bubba]

[lee02]

[Jim Mcrae]

That sucks mate:( I hate these people scum of the earth, makes me glad i live in the middle of the country, all the best hope you get the car back and find out what cnut did it.

[kevster]

still no sine of her .
really am stating to lose my cool now , makeing me think wether to bother with the blue nova nothings safe .
the jyj was well belled up to :(

[carls nova sri]

if i was you i would start looking around for a tracker. after so many peoples novas on here have been going missing im thinking of getting one

[Dave.]

go round the local recovery firms kev.. because i work at one i know somwtimes it can tale upto a week or even 2 to find out who owns it.. run round all the recovery places and try the local dibble station too matey :thumb:

[RJM25R]

tracker-get one. ?250 quid well spent

[kevster]

tracker-get one. ?250 quid well spent

i will be havein one of these on the blue nova :thumb:

[Nick]

Snap-off steering wheels are also a nice idea !

I have a 2nd car that i might have to sell soon, because every night i go to bed worrying about wether it's still going to be there in the morning.

Really sorry to hear this bad news. Hope you get it back ! Good luck.

*Also posted on a local site (Bunch of us that do trackdays) It's in the lancashire area so i hope that helps cover a bit more of the uk*

[Mike]

Snap-Off steering wheel boss, ?39 delivered from Los Angeles ;)

[mowgli]

In my experience, keep looking close to home, pester the police, talk to local radio phone in shows(the sort that old folk listen to, they are very nosey, & notice things).

as for security devices, make your own immobiliser, all commercial ones can be bypassed way too easily. if you take the right relay out, the car won't work. It saved my old one from a sustained 6 week long theft attempt, because some idiot at the local garage had told his mates how fast it went.

[mov3d]

Bummer, i just sent you you a PM about buying this:(

Never mind, i hope it turns up.

[novahotrod]

fu**in w****rs mate hope u get it back soon

[just vaux trev]

been watching the thread any news yet bud

[kevster]

no news mate , shes gone ! not happy at all ,
i will have to get my finger out and do the blue one now !!
but its had when you lose so much money :(

[gazz]

feel so sorry for you mate.its totally gut renching when it hapens to you.

[ReeceH]

****ing **** that like! i always worry about this sort of thing too. like another lad said, make your own immoboliser. wether its, fuel pump on a hidden switch, take the plug lead off the coil, remove a certain relay, unplug the ecu and take it inside your house with you,ect....

Or just buy a Snap-off wheel :thumb:

[scott.parker]

OK OK Mike we got it you bought a Snap-off wheel! lol lol

[Mike]

OK OK Mike we got it you bought a Snap-off wheel! lol lol

lol lol

Well, what im saying is, why feck around with all these little niggle switches & associated shizzle :thumb:

[burgo]

lol lol

Well, what im saying is, why feck around with all these little niggle switches & associated shizzle :thumb:because if someone wants your car they will case it and see it has a snap off steering wheel and therefore bring there own steering wheel to put on

[Jack]

Or hock up the front wheels and tow it away lol

[Teggy]

i think tracker sounds the best idea lol

shame that nova was sooooooo nice

[womble sri]

bad one matey ill keep a look out but doubt it will turn up this way! was it all insured and did it have a proper alarm? probably kids joyriding as novas are targeted

[Ash]

Didn't even no about this till RJ mentioned it. Right ****er :( It was (hopefully still is) the ideal looking nova.

Instead of a snap-off steering wheel, how about something that snaps-off something from the thief....

Failing that THIS (http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-6902779649280024914&q=car+flame+thrower+africa&total=1&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0)will do

[ReeceH]

Or just buy a Snap-off wheel :thumb:
buy....... lol

you could unplug your ecu for free lol

[L33 LEG]

gutted mate, hope you get it back in one piece.

such a nice nova, yours was the car that insired me to get my car looking like it is

[Dave.]

any news kev?

[Lee-170]

jelousy it 2 blame and its a s***er probly lil chavs really anoys me

[just vaux trev]

no news mate , shes gone ! not happy at all ,
i will have to get my finger out and do the blue one now !!
but its had when you lose so much money :(

i know i had a mint silk violet gsi a few years back still never seen one as tidy
and some *mack head nicked it and wraped it round a post went to see it next day at recovery place and near cryed when i saw the state it was in
thats why im building a rep now want it as close to as pos 1st thing i did
when i got this one was phone clifford and second day i had it had clifford fitted
there is always hope, but just hope you dnt find it in the same state mine was
good luck, hope the blue one goes well:thumb:

[Spudly]

[LEWI007]

Its the same with our neighbours in my street...they know who done mine over but wont say anything. Gutted for you mate

[kevster]

when or should i say if i get my hands on them i will ' well you know .

i will show them how i feel about it

[kevster]

f ing wan***S

[adam c]

absolutely gutted for you.some little barstewards tried knicking mine on saturday night(even though it had a big dislock and a handbrake and gear lever lock on it)they popped the lock and damaged the door,rumaged inside and only nicked the cig lighter:confused: hope they get what they deserve!;)

[dave.gsi]

fcuking c*nts.

^^ i had the same thing to me a few years ago. got in by bending the door back, all they could nick was the harness pads and fcuking floor mats! must say the disklock is without doubt the best thing ive ever bought, cost me ?85 when i was 18. its been on every car ive ever owned and out of all of them, 3 have been broken into, but none have ever been stolen. your average tithead car thief hasnt got a clue how to get it off.

i remember the last time it hapened, i came out in the morning to go to work and my gsi had its door wide open. there was a few cd's missing and two big fcuk off footprints either side of the disklock on the dashboard. the steering wheel was as bent as dale winton but the disklock was still attached. the pikey b.astards must have had both legs on the dash ragging the disklock but it never gave in. without it i'm pretty sure my car would have been missing in the morning :mad:

[Mike]

^ there well easy to get around, cut them in half with a blow torch

[Dave.]

use what ive got, a big 5mm chain lol

[BongMong]

Unlucky.. pretty sick infact..

just out of interest, what security did it have?

[dave.gsi]

^ there well easy to get around, cut them in half with a blow torch

....checklist for stealing cars...

1.large screwdriver

2.gloves

3.blowtorch (!)

how many people go stealing cars with a mobile blowtorch?!........none

and even if they did happen to drag around a mobile torch and a couple of gas bottles the noise/light and time it would take would alert the whole street lol

[Mike]

how many people go stealing cars with a mobile blowtorch?!........none

:tard: you obviously have no idea what happened to my SR.......

P.S. Google "Peizo Torch" ;) there the size of a Lynx can :P

[dave.gsi]

well im guessing by that it was cut off with a blowtorch:wtf:

all i can say to that is it sure as hell wasnt an oppertunist theif who took it, which is the case with 99% of car theft.

i just think youve been pretty fcking unlucky!

Twice in fact he has..

[Martin]

Still not found?


a mates vxr was stolen the other nite..


looks like a few cars are been stolen to order..

[novaboy_1985]

Hi mate, Thats harsh whats happened. I live in crawley, west sussex so i will keep my eyes peeled, i'll also spread the word around. Any news, u'll know. Regards, Adam

[Kev Turbo]

U think it cud be someone who came to view the car while it was for sale, they might have wanted to find there way around it then come back amd steal it??

Anyway gutted for you as was a really good example.

[Stanley]

My mate had his 106GTi broken into.

They used a high powered drill and drilled the drivers lock. Such minimal damage but still got in and took the CD Player etc. Lots of ??? worth.

Gutted to hear about the Nova like. Thats Major pants.

I remain optimistic though. I reckon youl get it back.

[kevster]

noone looked at her :(

[kevster]

its been over 2 weeks now :(

i get so bored now when its dry outside .

[Spudly]

Thats sooo bad that youve not seen or heard anything by now, have you tried bashing the heads of the local chavs surely they might have seen or know something about it?

[d171jvf]

still not heard anything! shame pal, looked lovely, even considered buying it before this thread popped up.

anything been settled with the insurance or anything yet? i suppose if you get the payout it could only lead to bigger and better things?

[kevster]

just to say still no sine , but thanks for the coments and help

[Adam]

Not looking good :(

[kevster]

Not looking good :(

nope i give up im reallly thinking about just getting rid of every think even the blue one:(

[carls nova sri]

don't do that your letting them beat you now

[DTR-DEVIL]

Aww man, saw this on PistonHeads little while ago, lovely car mate! Hope u get it back!

[sr_nova_joe]

good luck with the search m8,thats crap news wot *******s

[Spudly]

Nooo dont give up mate as then you will end up with nothing if you give in to the "if i have something shiny then it will just get stolen" philosophy, keep on with your blue one mate but just make sure its secured to the floor or something like that so it cant even be towed or dragged away!!

[djdommyp]

sorry to hear about your loss mate but Dont give up , You will only regret it otherwise just when u start with the blue one do all the security aspects first :) , Good luck with trying to find i mate !!

[kevster]

still no sine not even of bits :(
