Glad to hear they arrested someone, hope they don't get let off! Hope the car is ok.

[TimE-J]

good to hear the cars found, hope theres no real damage

[RustyNut]

Glad you got it back and hope it's in good order still? Lawrence weston is right next to where i live so i reckon it was your motor i heard the other night. It's a real hot spot for ragging nicked motors round here and you can tell by the way they're being driven that they've been robbed.

We know why the police have so much interest in the car now, have a look at this

Anyway, he should be getting it back in the next couple of days.

****! Man thats weird seeing that article and them stating the audi when everyone on here knew it was missing!

[Acidburn]

Really not good to see, its bad that someone died over this

[audiman]

that is NOT cool.

There is a some CCTV of the robbers on sky news now, have a look here. It doesn't help a lot as they are all wearing masks.

Thought I'd update this (sorry to those who have already seen it on Audifans). 4 People got sent to prision, each for around 8 years. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-12192579

I have finally got the car back today

I've put a new lock barrel in so it's secure but there is some damage to the plate around the handle as well as some damage to the door where they have tried to lever the plate off. I'm going to fill the damage to the door as soon as I get a chance and I think a new lock plate will be my best option. The Ignition barrel is very well smashed so I'll have to replace the steering wheel lock part.

I have managed to put the ignition on and all seems fine, I haven't managed to start it as I can't see how to turn the ignition far enough with a screwdriver!

[Acidburn]

I "may" have a spare handle/lockplate etc i'll have a look, had a couple in black a while ago, if so i'll post them down.

Glad you got it back, whats your plans for it?
