...OK Ralle, I will ask the owner tomorrow - I only have a business number for him. ;)

...I'm sorry Ralle he tells me they are all broken where they knocked the grille and lights out. :cry:

He tells me a low loader and a vehicle were stolen plus at least 4 cars cut up for scrap. The Visa GTi and a 1.9 BX GTi 4x4 have suffered the least damage having had their roofs cut off, bonnets a boot lids removed. With no keys or documentation available they cleared the building of anything they could sell plus all scrap metal including the buildings copper water pipes. The cars will go to the scrappy next week unless anyone wants to buy them for spares. I have contact details if you want them :?: :( :(

...the owner has sent me some photos plus his permission to publish - sorry the quality is not good due to all the building's electrics having been stripped by the thieves:

OMG :shock: that looks terrible, i can imagine that the owner did cry when he saw this for the first time.
This is no theft but demolish off property, makes me sad to see this. :x :x :( :( :cry:

That is such a shame to see them cars like that, and the GTi too. :cry: :cry:

Still, if we spot any GTi headlights on eBay... :!:
