My Car Car Stolen Last Night

?117 is right for recovering it, i work at a recovery place. We dont make the charges the police set them up, its ?105 call-out fee and ?12 a day parking. these charges are this high because of the people who's car we impound and dont cough up, we also have to pay to scrap the cars. i know its unfair but thats the great british roads/driving laws. i have also been on the receiving end of these charges before i started at the recovery firm, i had to pay a weeks parking (at ?18) because the police werent sure who took the car !?!

although if you picked the car up within a day id drop the ?12 charge

I thought the same thing when I saw the pics of the wires, but Im glad you got the car back in pretty much one piece Ste.

she will be sorted at weekend thank to MandyRacers slection of broken nova's on his drive :lol:

aye the solex stuff is "good" for non picking etc but they arent that strong.

am glad that there wasnt to much damage mate. where did the police find it?

lew

was found pushed half way down the road it was taken on...

due to moving house temporarly, they knocked on my old house, which is in the process of being gutted etc, and go no answer, they toed the car for that reason.

they couldn't get the car started, had no ecu in it, bet they felt proper gutted, that they couldn't steal a nova lol lol

glad too hear you got it back ste

you didnt have to pay anything to get the car back the recovery try and con you when i had my bike stolen i went to pick it up after from recovery they saiid ?120 so we wasnt happy about it so we told police and police says they have tried doing this with people to rip you off you shouldnt have to pay anything when its been stolen have a word with the police and try and get ur money back

normally people claim it back of the insurance company but obviously for ?117 its not worth it, if recovery operators worked for free then we'd all shut down then you'd be f**ked when you break down !!

just imagine if your car was stolen and found, the police couldn't get it towed away because there were no recovery operators anymore so the next night the pikeys came back and torched it, you'd wish you had the option to pay ?117 !!
