Memories indeed... I had a nice set of 4 caps from a Lotus Esprit when I was around 10 years old. It was parked on the dealer's lot at night and I must have had one too many coke's and don't know what came over me. Can we change the names here to protect the guilty?

Thumbs down

Ours was stolen at the Bridgepointe shopping center in San Mateo, CA. The little brats even left their fingerprints on the brake dust.

Hey Dranon,
you can install some anti thief system wich one spit fire! <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" /> made in South Africa!!! ; As in Johannesburg there's (was?)to much danger while the red light f.ex. someone can stole your car by hold-up!.

Just kidding.

I had only 2 of mine stolen by kids from the school across the street from where I used to park for work.

It was a catholic school... sure makes me proud to be one

And they weren't even for a $$ car... they said FORD!!!!
