doubt it lol
I too was wondering what has happened...
read through this, Id be going down and not even telling the c*nt and if my car was sitting there just picking it up there and then, If you arranging it i grantee you get phoned the next day, " sorry i was busy last night"
update:
after a legnthy police investigation, and finally finding that he'd moved and had put everything in his wifes maiden name, that the car had been left at this guys premises, and that the companies co owner had disposed of it. :(
having contacted this guy today i have been given the name of the guy who took it, i will be contacting him tomorrow. also the police officer dealing with this has told me if this guy has scrapped the car, technically he has handled and disposed of stolen goods, as it has been logged as stolen for the past 4 months, so he will face charges. im now down to hoping there is something left, as apparently this guy has a thing for classic cars. or of getting some money back via the courts. fingers crossed.
50p bet that you'll be out of the country when it gets to court, if at all....
yeah, that had crossed my mind....
what kind of car was it
Can't believe some of the stuff I'm reading in this.
If you value anything that is legally yours then act like it.
Possession is nine tenths of the law for good reason.
I would have been round there after 3 weeks & then every other day after that wanting to know WTF is up so if nothing else they get so pissed off with me they hand it back without any work carried out.
mate, ive been waiting since pretty much the beginning of the thread for the cops to investigate it all. it was the fact they found where he was living that meant i actually got to speak to him today.
its ok saying possesion is 9/10ths etc, but due to the timescale involved he could have claimed the car was now his, due to the length of time he had it. its all good hassling someone but this guy is the type to scrap the ****er and tell me to go **** myself.
Rob, I'm not trying to say anything but this tale does seem to be getting taller all the time mate.....
dod, british policing method need to be seen to be believed.... if they were paid on results, they have been bankrupt decades ago......
i had something nicked, & reported it. a fingerprint girl came round, but found nothing, withing 24hrs i'd found the item, & rang the police. within another day, an officer came round.. then, i found out later, he went on 6 weeks leave, but as it was his case, nothing was done till he got back!!!!!!!
dod, i think the basic gist is, its long fooking gone, but im trying to hold out hope.
Re: holiday, same thing happend to me when my white Nova disappeared. I though fcuk it went a bit vigalante & got better results!Quote:

he's moved to the notts area after it all went tits oop for him. costly mistake on my part to trust someone. live and learn.
mate id go to the pigs and say what has happend hopefully you get the car back mate! or at least get him f*cked over before he can do it to any one else!
wudgey the cops are already involved.
just called the tyre place, not good news. apparently they were told to store it for 4 weeks then crush it, so sadly its now tin cans. :cry: and yes, the cops have been informed and given all the info etc, so they can sort this ****ing ****ter of a mess out.
if anyone knows of one forsale, please pm me.
r.i.p ykh 393 s :cry:
Just out of interest, if you are moving to Aus, why are you trying to find another one???
maybe he wants to show the aussies what rust is
to take with me. they never imported them, and ive wanted one since being 5. its a sentimental thing lee.
there was a holden version, wasn't there??
nope. they went from the victor fe transcontinental (their holden torana) straight to the carlton (holden commodore) no cavalier, and their holden commodore or carlton got a 5.0 ltr v8....
i know the corsa is a holden barina and i know they didnt import nova's my mate is putting his saphy coworth back to standard and mooving out there for a few years if not for good he's spent a year over there a few years back and wants to go again!!Quote:
