    STOLEN S2 Nothelle AVANT

    Hello, could I ask everyone to please be on the lookout for my beloved S2 Nothelle Avant which was stolen from my home address in Epping Essex on 05/09/07, details are:
    K580FUW S2 Nothelle Avant
    Volcano Metallic Black/grey with roof bars
    119487 miles with usual peeling speedo
    Full black leather interior with wood trim
    sunroof and aircon
    Full Milltec Stainless exhaust with twin pipes
    8x17 Nothelle Alloys with 235/40/17 Contisports
    Alpine tape head with 6 cd changer in boot
    New Audi rad (with small repair due to holing it putting it in four days before it was stolen)
    Airflow six speed gearknob.
    She was in VERY good condition (as new inside)
    I realise I am unlikely to see her again (I had her six years) but would welcome any sightings or offers of parts etc. I will pay a good reward for recovery or conviction.
    Hope you can all help. Just for the info of anyone in the area, she was most likely stolen by persons connected to the MOT garage she had been at four days before, as the owner was the only other person on this planet who knew about the battery cutout which was needed to start her....(Kiethan motors Epping).
    Fingers crossed Any messages to this site please.

    Sorry to hear about the theft, I know how it feels to lose a beloved S2

    Of course, there is still hope that you'll have her back. With such a rare car and a tight community it would be hard to sell such a beast without someone here coming across the ad and recognising the car... I just hope they don't try and break her - any engines that come up on the 'bay, will have enquiries for the engine number within minutes I'm sure! I hope you have all the details to hand so we can help where we can!

    Good luck,

    Ross

        Idea!

        Why dont insurance companies give out free Trackers? Its in their interest isnt it!

        Sorry for the loss, expensive or not still screws up your life if its your only wheels.

            Export of nicked cars seems to be the new thing.

              if its a avant chances are it wont get exported but used for a ram raid or another robbery.

                  Unfortunately would make a good getaway car, have you been back to see the garage since and took some mates along? Sorry to hear about it I don't know what I would do in the situation if it was mine and as rare as that.

                    That is baad news - surely thats been stolen to order - someone in the know has picked that car out for sure - for parts or export or lord knows what. What a nightmare.

                    As someone else said - make sure you have engine and VIN number to hand - they are on your V5 book and the Audi service schedule (if that wasn't in your car).

                        Good point Eric - those brakes are unusual - isn't there a Nothelle badge on the steering wheel as well ?

                        There must be other Nothelle indicators that you would know about. Couldn't hurt to share those here if it helps someone spot it on 'innocent parts' of some description.

                        That funky ink which can embed codes onto car parts wouyld be great huh ??

                              Very true, Jases old Nothelle was stolen from a hotel when the prior owner had it and used in a robbery IIRC
                              It was the cover story for one of the Audi driver magazines, just cant find it at the moment
