Well at least they had the good manners to nick it in the old-fashioned way instead of entering my house and demanding the keys with menaces. Now that WOULD have been traumatic.

Thanks for all the kind wishes, everybody.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your drill.

I say this since it seems you've already come to terms with the loss of the car

I hope you've enough personel belongings cover to replace the drill (and you've got the receipt).

A seven year old car is only a car, but a brand new top-of-the-range Makita is a right pose on site.

I was sorry to read this Bob. I know that you loved that drill..... If I were you Id look for a New Age 'Wagon as a replacement. I love Classics; but later cars are better.....

something that will either cheer you up or depress you further

'Oh Makita you will never know anything about my home
Ill never know how good it feels to hold you
Makita I need you so
Oh Makita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Makita youll never know'

.....

I agree, the Classic is a far prettier car. On the plus side though, New Age cars are better built with way better interior trim and greatly improved NVH. Perhaps of more importance though is their far greater reliability. Evn if you bought a 'mint' 51 registered (in Mica Red; IM had a car park full of them left over) Classic 'Wagon then you cant be sure that it will last; with a New Age car reliability is far less of an issue.

f you have contents away from home cover on your home insurance then the drill should be covered.....

NVH?

I'm never having a modern scoob. I might consider a type 25 0r Spec C if I had the money, but otherwise it's classics all the way.

Noise, Vibration & Harshness.

It'll be 51-registered in Mica Red then. You can get one of the second (over-priced) production of P1s on a 51 registration too.....

There are other people that do this more than me, but thanks for the laugh... I've got the image stuck in my mind now, of a disgruntled illiterate ramraider muttering about me under his breath while he fills my scoob up with ****.

Sorry to hear about your unfortunate incident Bubba. Hopefully you won't get the car back, after as someone has already said it's been 'raped'. Hope the insurance gets sorted without delay too.

The bib should be on the lookout for colour-blind thieves. Obviously they don't know its green otherwise they'd have left it well alone.

Hope you get your drill back!

There's some terrible green prejudice going on in this thread.

I wonder why I'm taking the loss of the scoob so well...

really sorry you've had the car nicked Bubba... will keep a look out up here in Durham, but not sure if it'd make it this far up?

as for price... I was thinking about trading mine in the other day... needs some work doing on it... I was offered £3500 for her... my00 with 94k on the clock.
decided to keep her now tho... and spend the dosh on getting her sorted!

hope you get the outcome you want with the car mate!

just tagging onto the end of this thread...what with one of our sox crew having her scoob nicked over the last few days, it is just becoming too common....I know its not the time or place, but never seen your scoob in the flesh until now and I like the standard look

hope it all gets sorted one way or another, one way is the thieving gits come of badly, the other way is your insurance pay out in full and you get another one even better than the first..sorry cant offer anymore than that
