Default Reward offered....

As you may have read, a customer car was stolen from us today as detailed in this thread: http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=509836

I want to make it clear, that if someone steals a customer car in our posession, they steal from me, and I WILL NOT tolerate it. I offered a reward for information leading to the recovery of the car. I am still offering a reward for information leading to the culprits being subjected to justice.

You may well know the people involved, they most certainly are from the extended Birmingham area. They have a knowledge of Subarus and japanese cars in general, and I believe they planned a visit to Zen, posing as legitimate customers, as it's not the sort of place you just stumble accross. They might go to your local Subaru meet, partake in your local street races, they might like to boast down the pub of how they nearly managed to get away with it, they might even be your 'mate'.

The car in question is my favourite Impreza, and it is our most cherished and unique customer car belonging to one of our most faithful and nicest customers.

There is £1000 cash waiting for the right information, and there is no time limit on this reward. Anonymity can be arrange but delivery of the reward will of course depend on the validity of the information.

Bloody Hell ... thats not good news - I hope you can extract some justice with this reward.

I always thought it was very difficult to steal these cars unless there were menaces involved - I hope all your staff are ok?

Not much more I can say, I pass my regards to you in your quest for information.
