Unhappy

Hi All,

After having to sell my Scoob back in October due to a new job and a company car I convinced my boss I should have a CTR. Order in Jan and arrived Friday 23rd Jan.

Well I came home from work on Thurday night, got out the car locked it and walked to my house when someone shouted "Oi Mate, give us your keys"

I turned around and there was some guy dressed in black, wearing a balaclava pointing something at me and another one standing behind him. "GIVE US YOUR KEYS" - so I chucked them over his head, got in the house and locked the door and called the Police.

Police were round within 5 minutes, but there has been no sign of it - only had 660 miles on it!

In summary -

Got the car Friday 23rd. Run in Sunday 25th. Nicked Thursday 29th.

If any one sees the car around please let me know although I don't rate my chances.

(Oh, and I hope the ***** that took it have a miserable life and die unhappy after suffering from leprosy or some other such disease)


Cheers,

An very unhappy Posh.

Sorry to hear that mate. No tracker / black jax aye? Make sure you do on the replacement.

Wise move 'handing' the keys over, after all its only a bloddy tin box on wheels.

Have you tried putting this up on a honda/ctr forum cos tpo be honest they're more likely to have noticed a brand new ctr than most scooby drivers.

Whens the new ctr arriving then?

Sorry - Honda Civic Type-R (CTR)

Oh - and when I told the Police I never had any bother with my Scoob, they said that's because they usually have trackers so the scum bags tend to leave them (not sure about the truth behind this though...)

ThePosh sorry to hear about this still you did the best thing no point fighting for a car it is not worth getting hurt for.

I have been thinking about getting one of these instead of a Scooby because of the theft problem maybe i should just stick with a 10 year old GTI

Sorry to hear it mate. You did the right thing.

Will take a while to get over it. Took me months to get bck into my scoob after I was held up at gun-point.

Keep your chin up.

Surely the best thing to do is to give them the keys and tell them it has a tracker in it, police helicopter will be tracking them in minutes..

..It ud put me off anyway
