Condolences cheif, this remids me of a scene in two hands where pando cathes up with the guy who stole his coupe, then it cuts to a scene of said car theif sinking underwater with an engine block chained to his ankles still alive.

A fate i'd like to see all theives endure.

Sorry for the loss, but just a warning, be prepared to cop a hard time from the insurance company, they see this thing happen all the time and a lot of the time it is by the cars owner trying to make a claim. because of this they will normally give an owner the 3rd degree about every little fact and how it occured and how it happened with out keys etc etc.

Hopefully this does not happen to you.

had it happen to a guy I knew years ago, turned out he did organise a guy to steal his car and destroy it like yours, the owner had a good aliby etc and they eventually found him out.
He lost his job as he worked in finance, he could not get any insurance for anything else at the time (not sure if that is still the case) he got charged by the cops, he had to pay the finance company and he had no car left.

That's got to be the worst feeling mate. The sort of people that purportrate this sort of crime don't deserve to be a part of our society. To take someones pride and joy and destroy for fun doesn't sit well with me or i'm sure other members of this forum/community.

Look to the future mate and if you go down the finance route for your next car make sure you purchase the gap insurance, as you now know anything can happen. Good luck mate.

yeah, i copped a bit of grief from them today, but like i told them, they probably did do a bit of joyriding in it, i parked the car at 8.30 and it was discovered around 1.am. so anytime between there they could have done so. i dont know what was taken, as everything that was left was burned to a crisp. there was money, a watch, shoes, clothes...etc etc. but insurance mob already asked if i have the key-yes, i do. so they started asking me questions etc etc about what i was up to and all that. after they where satisfied, they let me know that in two weeks, eveyrthing should be fine for the payout.

That's a most angering thing to have happened to you.

Here's hoping things go better for you in the near future.

Yes it's unfortunate that it looks like you were only covered for market value, Sometimes the extra $$$ for agreed value can be worth it when something like this happens.

Anyways champ look at this as only a slight bump in your life, Maybe with the payout you could go to a bank and refinance with a personal loan which would include 3.5k you owe and you might be in another FORD before you know it.

Iggypoppin' · 03-04-2010, 09:07 PM

thanks for the kind words guys, its all going to work out(eventually) but for now im in a financial s*****storm and there no end in sight till much further in the year. so, for now, i think im going to go and get lashed. alcohol will be the only thing consoling me tonight! thanks again, everyone.

Jim Goose · 03-04-2010, 09:08 PM

Sorry to hear about the car mate. Thats gotta hurt and i can imagine your anger too.

I truely dont understand the mentality of thieves!
To steal it then set it on fire just for kicks?
What the frig is wrong with this morons?

I too would assume a BA would be difficult to steal too.
Considering no keys were used how did they get past the smart lock/ key?
Your not supposed to be able to start it without a key.

If there is a way to bypass the system then everyone needs to know and Ford should maybe be asked about it?

Feathers · 03-04-2010, 09:09 PM

Sorry to hear that dude. Seeing your car in that state is awful.

Nikked · 03-04-2010, 09:25 PM

F***in lowlives, scum of the earth. I would not regret hurting people who do this.

cosmo20btt · 03-04-2010, 09:27 PM

I am so sorry to here what happened to your car, I just hope something good will happen for you around the corner.

Bmobile · 03-04-2010, 09:31 PM

This is a very very sad state of affairs for you. It would be much like losing a loved one, but life goes on. Do the best you can with what you got and continue this journey called life.... there will be much sader days to come for all of us eventually, but one would hope these theives would envetually get the worst of it.

Wally · 03-04-2010, 09:31 PM

Often wonder if thieves put as much effort into a legitimate job as they do working at being criminals, they might do pretty well.

I know how you feel Iggypoppin', that car was an expression of you, like a painting is to and artist. Drink won't get you out of the doldrums though.

vik351 · 03-04-2010, 09:41 PM

Drink won't get you out of the doldrums though.

But it will help tonight...

I would wanna kill...!!!

First car theft,you got hung till dead...

vik...wonder how many thefts there would be after that...???

mick fab · 03-04-2010, 09:43 PM

Thought for the day. bring back capital punishment !

**ebxr8240** · 03-04-2010, 09:58 PM

Sorry for you.. At times like this it would be nice not to have a swear filter...
You'll come back stronger and better for it...
Which you cannot say to the jealous knuckle draggers that stole it...

robert65 · 03-04-2010, 10:00 PM

what scum, hope they get what's coming to them, these people do not respect or understand how much we put into our cars or maybe they just do not care bastards.

FG XR · 03-04-2010, 10:15 PM

how did they steal it? di they steal the keys from your mates house or what?

I can't remember that scene out of two hands.... was there more than one version??

TURBOTAXI · 03-04-2010, 10:49 PM

Mate, nothing is going to make things better in the short term, hope things start to look up for you bloke.

GS608 · 03-04-2010, 10:56 PM

wow mate that really does suck, how the ******** did they get past smartlock?
lets hope you get some unexpected good luck in the next few weeks man

Iggypoppin' · 03-04-2010, 10:57 PM

well, i didnt drink too hard tonight, despite the temptation to do so. just not feeling it. i instead worked out the financial side of things...im going to be approx 4200 dollars in the red, which will take me around 4 months to pay down entirely....not too bad i guess but then i'd rather have a car.

there is a slight problem i may have had with my car, and that is that the rear door did not lock at all. easy access+ ability to start and your away. but according to the insurer i am still covered so its ok.

i am going to retire to bed and movies and hopefully ill wake up to find this was a nightmare..worst luck..
