Nothing yet, I think it is long gone. There is a chance that Sony may be able to track the Playstation that they also took, but it seems that this is a final hope! Fingers crossed the insurance pay up quickly.

Quick update - amazingly the car has been found, hidden in an Industrial Estate in Thurmaston in Leicester, 10 days after it was stolen. The police think that they were letting it cool off for a while to see if it was fitted with a tracker etc before moving it on.

 

Now trying to get things moving, although it's trick as there are no keys or immobilizer fobs! It needs to be taken to a dealer now and have the immobilizer removed and a new one fitted along with new locks, plus any other work that needs to be completed to repair damage etc. No idea what condition it is in at present.

 

Thanks all for keeping your eyes peeled!

It's just a complete shit you'll have to pay recovery, impound and for the f'ing locks etc to be changed.

 

Glad it was found, shame you'll have to pick up the tab.

Its about time someone bombed Leicester, i hate the frikin place..

 

Good result that its been found.

 

Are the police taking finger prints etc?

 

Is your insurance company covering the repair? Id get it repaired and then ask for it to be inspected by a Lotus professional.

Yes they will take the prints while impounded £ £ £ after recovery £ £ £ then the insurance company will have it collect £ £ £ to have it transported to the dealer to have new locks fitted £ £ £ as it is still very robbable because the thieves still have the keys making it uninsurable. Lucky though you'll be insured with protected no claims.....phew! NOPE, while you are protected for the Exige.....your insurance will rocket on your wife's car, your race car or any other car you are named on.
