Post by Citroening »

Seems pretty real or a massive wind up! lol

Apparently every car forum in the land is out looking for it,

plus, again, apparently the police,(their helicopters/cars etc have seen it/been following it),

it's been crashed, etc etc...well if it's been crashed..they've found it?? !

My first thoughts were it'd be quicksmart into a lockup in 1000 bits..it would have to be,it's far too distinctive.

anything else is either amazing luck/balls (by the joyriders?), or amazing incompetance if it has been seen/chased!

Surely it wouldn't have a massive fuel tank? Should be a fairly self-limiting exercise...

Personally I'm not too bothered by its theft; would be more put out if a Citroën were stolen!

Well I'm very pleased to say it has been found! :D :D Link.

It really is amazing the amount of support and amount of people that went out to look for it even into the early hours of the morning!

Thats exellent news, 50k+ worth of car saved from the scum that nicked it.Glad the guy got it back, would have broken my heart to loose that sort of car, i really thought it would be in bxes withing 3 hours and gone, thankfully they were not that bright.

amazed me they had the front to nick it from the pd, then drive a drift spec car with no plates or road legality up the M1 in broad daylight :shock:.

Well, to be honest, they had to be a bit on the challanged side to even comtemplate nicking such a conspicuous car...

It's called hiding in plain sight Dean.... Plod would never expect such a flash motor to be actually nicked...

I'm surprised they managed to catch them at all :shock:

I suppose they've got to park and fill up with white lightning sometime :lol:
