          dont get it?
          whats the point of going to all that trouble just to burn it?
          unless your going to burn someone in it?
          rare car so you would have thought it might be for parts or something
          bank raid?

          cant see it em going to all that trouble just for joy riding

          me thinks theres a bigger part to this picture

          sorry to hear bout this tho pal

            Just spoken to the police, they think its been involved in a RTA, which caused the car to catch fire.

            All abit sketchy at present.

                sad, sad day for the Rs2 family!

                I think the unanswered potential buyers were well involved, thats the way they work. The thiefs use the trader as a tool, find the exact car they want, find out what security it has so they know what they have to do/take and then get the address easy as that.

                They must have still been well prepared as all rs's have the immo in the ecu!

                Really worrying though as I also have to sell mine, and this is too close to home.

                    Shirish, really shocked and saddened to hear your news. You must be gutted.

                    I hope you've got a good insurance company behind you with deep pockets.

                    Isn't it amazing that pikey kids are still keen to nick, crash and burn a 12 year old car!!
                    I would have thought that new sports cars would be their priority...

                    In any case, lets hope the coppers have some luck with tracing on the numbers.

                          Best Bet is to make sure you have an expensive Clifford alarm or similliar......and make it clear in any advert that thieves will be shot

                          or// just that the car has great security and request a home landline telephone number from ALL buyers to make sure they are genuine

                          If they are they wont mind giving it....if they are thieving scum they will mind and will hang up mumbling

                          IMHO they will not bother to go after a top of the range Clifford protected car because it is a bridge too far for all but the very BEST theiving scum
