My Surf was stolen last night

[corsetts]

So please be aware people. Just because they're old and have little real World value, they are of huge value to the scumbags who will nick them in order to steal high value caravans and plant etc.

Blue Surf, reg M521 AAR stolen from Sittingbourne, Kent, just in case anyone is offered something

[smurfL6]

scum......

[stormforce]

Bl00dy scum.Hope you get it back

[tonupteabag]

B##tards! Hopefully you either get it returned without any damage or they catch whoever stole it!

[corsetts]

Cheers all, I very much doubt I'll see it again and I'm not even sure I'd want it back after they've abused it.

Great shame though, I've never, ever kept a car longer than 18 Months before. But, I would've had the surf 5 Years come December, it was just perfect for everything I asked of it

[Balllsy]

dam ba$tards. Will keep my eyes peeled.

Is it the light blue over grey or navy blue ?

[corsetts]

Cheers fella, I imagine it's just a smoldering heap by now but here's a quick couple of pics

[corsetts]

They don't actually show the colour that well but it was the deep Midnight Blue colour

[Balllsy]

OK, will keep 'em peeled.

[Mark7081]

Sorry to hear that fella.

My fingers are crossed they will make a mistake and get caught. I would imagine it is still in one piece somewhere, as you said, these are nicked for towing so probably won't have been wragged around a council estate and torched immediately afterwards.

Got my eyes open up here for ya.

[Surf01]

Did you have an alarm system or immobiliser on the vehicle?

[Diezel Weazel]

Fecking tealeaf's ......
Hope ya get ya Truck back all in one piece soon Chris...
I got em peeled around here !!

this deserves a "BUMP"

11+ Years of Surfs .... n Faultless to a " T " is my Yota

[corsetts]

Cheers all

No, it didn't have any security on it. It did have a Thatcham 1 alarm/immobiliser on it when I bought it, which was handy as Direct line wouldn't insure it without.

It started playing up after a while though and when I switched insurers I had it removed. Benefit of hindsight eh?...


Seriously though, do take it as a warning to secure your car if you can. I've always assumed that being such a solid old lump it would be quite difficult to nick. But, I'm a very light sleeper, the bedroom windows were open and the truck was parked about 50 yards from the house when they popped the window, (presumably) smashed the barrel off and had it away, I didn't hear a thing

EDIT: Just had the phone call, it was found burned out last night.
