Hi All,

 

just to make you guys aware a bunch of cars including a lambo and a 997 Porsche got stolen from xtreme up in Dudley overnight. They don't really do Lotii, although they do have an Exige S in at the mo..... just in case you hear/see anything. The more people know about it the better....

Livewebcam of the showrooms looks very empty. I am sure they wouldn't have been driven away but put on lorries

 

They are starting to get them recovered now, some of the trackers sent out signals, the lambo was found in tamworth, they've got a porsche a scooby and an evo back and the Evo 400 has been seen caning it around skipping red lights etc....

 

not so pro after all....

wow, that is crazy. Very 'Gone in 60 Seconds'. I can't believe they got they out and away without being caught, must have taken them some planning. They obviously didn't plan enough though.

 

Glad they are tracking them down.

got most of them back now, it was on midlands today BBC1. they had been speeding around and then abandoning them. Their alarm system failed on their premises....

Nope, sold in Feb 2007.

 

Slouching around in a Rover 75 at the mo.

Does that mean you lost the bet with your missus Bob?

 

More details, looks like they left the Lotus behind!

Fifteen other cars also worth about £250,000 - mainly Mitsubishi Evolutions and one Lotus - were left untouched, as were computers, flat screen monitors and printers.

 

Mr Challis, who became the company's managing director just three months ago after a year as its sales director, said he was devastated by the break-in.

 

"They even stole our kettle, tea bags, coffee and sugar," he said. "The vehicles are insured together with the building and its contents."

a cunning plan Bob?

As cunning as a sly old fox in an R75 K series with a 160-190 sport Lotus lump .....

 

Maybe ... LOL

 

I got some new toys to play with too - OBDII diags and data logs and Laptop and ..... sniff Emerald maybe

 

Just playing about a bit.

 

Reckon I could fit Dobbos EX manifold piece of pee - engine is wrong way round on the R75 lol

 

Been playing with sensors and ECUS since my Jap adventures

 

This car is going to be a fun mobile

 

Watch this space - LOL

looking forward to hearing about this one.... "rover 75" and "fun" should never be used in the same sentence! :blush:
