Wow, thanks Nick. When life deals you a crappy hand its always good to remember you have great friends around.

Thats a long list. I kind of forgot. I'll miss it. My life is inundated with 911s, so don't feel too bad for me.

Tell you what, I would build that car again if I had the time and patience. It was fantastic.

Hopefully you'll be fully covered by insurance if that makes a bad thing decent. I'm curious how they got in, defeated your locks etc. (I'm a locksmith)

So sorry to hear this. Hope they catch those dirtbags, but as someone mentioned, they're likely being prepped for shipping out of the country.

Being an engineer, and over thinking many things:

The potential crooks probably use this fourm to scope out cars. They are somewhat smart, as the parts are probably going overseas. I know in Asia these cars are prized and cherished.

To me, its a sad day when someone steals from you because you lose two things:
1) Trust in people
2) Always have that uneasy feeling that you have been violated.

I wish you the best, and pray that you get your stuff back!

Maz, so sorry to hear of that terrible theft. Will circulate the list of upgrades / parts to others in Europe. In case the cars head over the pond.

I'll also watch out here in Dubai as some stolen cars have ended up here in the past.

Dam dude - that's one crap new years present.
Sound like an inside job for sure - so keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
I hope that the cars are found. Or that they where taken by some TV crew like overhaulin.
Regards
Ken

Vincent Vega once said,

"What's more chicken**** than ****ing with a man's automobile? I mean, don't fxxx with another man's vehicle."

Sorry to hear it. Even though they are "only cars" it still feels like a personal loss and violation when someone comes to your home and takes your things.

Sorry to hear about it. Curious as to what locks, alarms, etc were defeated to gain access to your shop and knowledge of where the keys were kept for the vehicles.

Hope the insurance company treats you fairly.

OMG... this is horrible. So sorry to hear. Hopefully your insurance will cover all the RS mods you had on the car.
