Help Please

[Rory]

A friend of mine has had her car stolen recently, I only found out today, its a Bright red Celica, Reg: GR53 LKG

This isn't the actual car but its the closest pic I could find:

Was stolen from FX leisure (I think thats in Lowton) and It could be anywhere in the northwest, maybe even further afield by now, but hopefully not, any help in finding the car is appreciated, drop us a pm if its spotted anywhere, i'll be checkin here regularly

Gutted to hear of vehicle theft, as always...

[Rory]

almost a week ago unfortunately Jamie, so I know theres little chance of it turning up, as it probably has false plates on now

[TUFF1]

keep an eye out for you mate

[Chris.S]

Did they steal it with the keys as its difficult to steal these toyotas without a key

[Rory]

yes, the owner was in the gym and managed to leave her locker key out for some reason, whats more, when she noticed the keys were gone, the car was still there, and she asked if one of the staff could stay with the car for a few mins while she changed into more appropriate clothes, and they wouldn't help, and when she got changed, the car had gone

That's shocking :tsktsk:

I think a stern talking to the management of that gym is in order!

[PCIronmike]

Some scumbag from the gym sounds like , I'm in Folkestone , don't suppose it'll come this far but whoknows ? keep a look out for you nr the Dover docks n area .

How sickening... I think I would've left whatever clothes I had on, on. Thong or no thong!

It's a shame, but I can understand why they wouldn't want to do this, they aren't paid to be security guards so makes sense they wouldn't want to take on the car thief.................

Yep I'd have been out there however dressed and perhaps try to persuade someone else to block the car in - but obviously retrospect is a wonderful and pointless thing........

I know how it feels to get your car stolen, I was lucky to get mine back, hopefully it turns up but if it's been a while I guess the chances are worse :shutit:

[Rory]

been almost 2 weeks now, they've given up, insurance are paying out apparently

[TUFF1]

Wow thats quick of the insurance it sometimes takes about 4 weeks before they pay out, its a shame really but i wouldnt have the car back after some scumbag been screwing it around they never run right after that.

Just a small observational note. That's what I love about this club, people pull together to help everyone out. It's a really good community spirit. Just a small observation :)

[Rory]

Yeh I agree, cheers very much for all those who said they'd keep a look out.

Update:

Car has been found, in ST Helens, with its original plates still on, don't know about any damage or whether its been used for any jobs, but its recovered now and being checked for forensic evidence now

good news,and no-one got hurt :winky:

[Rory]

It was just dumped, there was already a suspect from the gym from the time it was stolen, so hopefully they can be linked to it
