A friend of mine has had her mini stolen last sunday from outside her house in Halesowen (midlands) can people please keep an eye out and if they see anything let me know (edwardpreston @hotmail.com).
Spread it around as many forums as you know please as well

Heres a pic of the car on the rollers a little while back



the week before these wheels were put on it, and theyre brand new, so cant be too many red minis around with them on

That's bad news. When something quite old and obscure such as the little Mini gets picnched it can often be for parts. For a so called enthusiast....

ive posted it on talkaudio.co.uk and i think the cars owner posted in on minifinity, if you could post it on any forums you know it'll be much appreciated, with the number of people on car forums if we spread word fast enough hopefully someone will have seen it somewhere.

I've stuck it in the stolen car forum over on Retro-Rides:

Hope it is returned undamaged!

I’m based in Halesowen and I will Definitely keep an eye out for it.

In fact I do believe that your friend must be my Mrs Parents next door neighbour – Small world isn’t it!

Hope she gets it back in one piece.

Alan.

Just put a link to this on Mini2.co.uk. I hope it can be returned to its owner soon.

i live in the county, and we have a Red Mini ourselves so often become an attraction for other Mini's. I love them so i will keep a good eye out. Guess ill have to take extra care in the Mini if they are being stolen around here furious

Yes - we are also based in the Midlands and Mini owners so will certainly keep a look out.

Best wishes and good luck with the search.

That's not good. Why couldn't they have taken someones BMW mini?

For what it's worth (miles away) I'll keep my eyes open.
