Amjad Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Fucks sake! Woke up late today and came out of the house at 14:30, to see the garage door open and my MR2 alloys gone. Mum left house for work at 09:30, so it was during the day. Gonna go speak to neighbours now but builders down the road didn't see them, it must have been quick. I didn't hear anything either. Nothing else was taken thankfully but this has really pissed me off! There's been a recent bout of robberies in my area (which is supposed to be a nicer area!) by some europeans apparently. Needless to say I'll be keeping a deterrent close by from now on! Here's some pictures, the tyres are 195/50/15 Uniroyal Rainsport 2s. Guys if you see anything online or for sale or fitted to a car PLEASE let me know! 07534045005 If anyone is on an MR2 forum or anything could you keep an eye out or post it there too please? As they might be the ones in the market for these wheels and might see them pop up Thanks Amjad Quote
Mike_trx Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Thieving Pikey scum! That's really shit man, hope they turn up for you Edited March 25, 2013 by Mike_trx Quote

Danza V Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Bloody hell! You gone to police? Any CCTV in your area mate? All you hear these days is shit being stolen, makes me sick. I hope you find them! Quote
Asad Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 sorry to hear it bro, ask the local car peeps/garages....will take a few days for them to surface on the net keep an eye on the usual pikey sites gumtree/local buy and sell/facebook buy and sell etc Quote
Tyron Devine Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Horrible dirty cunts.. love to catch them in the act.. happily jump all over there face :@ Quote
Billy SR Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) fuck about man! ukso is going to have to set up our own ep army at this rate! Edited March 25, 2013 by Billy SR Quote
Amjad Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks guys, I'm not holding out much hope but they may turn up I guess. Police have opened up a case, gonna have a chat with the neighbours a bit later but I don't think they'd have seen anything as it must have been a quick in out job; none of my tools/jacks etc were taken thankfully. There's no CCTV on our road but it's quite busy most of the time. I'll be keeping an eye out online, but like I said if anyone sees anything please give me a shout! Quote
micky boy Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Sorry to hear dude hope you manage to get them back! Is there any scrap/weighing in places for metal in your area? Every tom dick and hary round my area are going mad for scrap!!! no one has a job so its the only way to make that exrta money! So it might be worth checking them type of places!

_shaun_ Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Personally sounds to well planed anyone been interested in the wheels and asked your location. Don't see anyone randomly breaking into the garage in the off chance they find something Quote
Burny Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Sorry to hear that dude, i dont trust nobody always keep my stuff padlocked up, even got CCTV cameras installed! Quote
Ryan-11 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Personally sounds to well planed anyone been interested in the wheels and asked your location. Don't see anyone randomly breaking into the garage in the off chance they find something ^^ Got to agree with that, sounds like whoever took them knew they were in the garage. Quote
Amjad Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 Hmm if you think that's the case then maybe they'd have seen my for sale thread saying the wheels were waiting to be collected :/No-one has asked specifics on my address and only a few local mates off here know where I liveAlso there is a scrap place here but they'll be shut now, would've thought they would sell on wheels that are in as new condition?

maddox710 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Aah that sucks dude, il keep a look down my way doubt they will make it this far but i certainly keep an eye out, tried ringing local scrappies see if theyve got any in if they have go down and have a butchers Quote
Amjad Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks! Yeah will give them a buzz tomorrow, good idea! Quote
Turbo Goose Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Thats not good mate! It's a shame some europeans come here and don't treat the country with respect at all. Fair few crimes down my end in the countryside committed by eastern europeans, some of them are proper organised as well Quote
AdamB Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Scum shit fuckers man, can't keep their hands to any property but their own.I'd go down to any local scrap metal places and take some pics with you, and just say that these wheels were robbed from your garage and if anyone comes in trying to weight em in then to let you know like.You do get pretty good money for weighing in a set of wheels, like £50 was the last set I weighed in. Couple of sets of wheels a week and you've made a nice healthy figure. Edited March 25, 2013 by AdamB Quote

Ep'd Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 CheckeBayGumtreeLocal carsMr2 owners clubBut if they are druggies or scum then they will go and weigh them in for few quid!Who knew they were in the garage / didn't they take anything else if not they came just for the alloys as they are heavy so it was not the easiest thing to steal someone must of known they are there and came specially for them?

pick1 Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 That's shite mate proper shite , I know it's not likely to Happen but hope u get em back dude nothing is safe anymore Quote
TurboTobz Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Damn they were nice wheels too, hope you get your own back Quote
