Thanks guys. They broke 2 padlocks, a gate, drugged both my dogs aswell. Couldn't come at much worse time either, was supposed to be driving it down to LM. stole it without keys & no smashed windows.
Fark me! Organised crime! Really sorry to hear it, enjoyed seeing it at the pubclubs. Its not the most inconspicous vehicle though, i hope it comes across me, but i never saw it around before this happened and i live in Southampton too!

Does it have a tracker installed?

Hope your dogs are ok!

Mate gutted for you, was it outside your house? It is a problem at the moment but mainly north of the county. Audis are the favourite but your M6 is an odd choice as it is so obvious with the wheels, splitter etc. Trust me mate if I see it out and about I will make sure they dont keep it for long!! ANPR and current police pursuit tactics have certainly made the life of a car theif a much harder job.

Keep your chin up mate, what goes around comes around and karma will have its way im sure.

Of note it probably wont be on the same plates, so if anyone sees a blue M6 with black wheels I would say thats worth a 999 call.

I have sent an email round my office mate so all the guys will be on the look out. Intel like that can sometimes take a while to get around so that should speed things up.

Awful news, so sorry to hear. Hope the police can recover it and it's not damaged etc.

I work on the Southampton uni science park (Chilworth science park) a big group of piekeys have just arrived and set up camp next to the Merck building. They have been coming and going all day with a variety of shiny high end German cars. I've not seen that one, but it might be worth having a look.

s recently arrived back beside Bmth spur rd too. I'll keep my eyes and ears peeled. The thing with these cars is they tend to disappear very quickly inti shipping containers or underground storage. Got my M5 on lockdown I tell thee.

Real sorry about your dogs, I hope they weren't too stressed out by it. It'd be the dog issue the pissed me off the most if I'm honest.

Defo worth garaging it, and if you haven't got one may be worth getting one of those lockable posts on the driveway.

Dunno why it wont let me say s! I'll change that to Gypo's.

The car is often garaged but with the house move............ For now its securely stored and under my close protection.

Will keep my eyes peeled, its pretty bloody distinctive, so should stick out fairly well.
Best of luck for it being recovered safe and well.

Christ! How the hell did they manage to take this without you or anyone else hearing?? Does make you think it must have been HIAB'd!? Also, it sounds pretty well planned out as others have already said! Going to the extent of drugging dogs...jeez!!!

Best of luck! I will be keeping my eyes peeled for you! I very much doubt it'll be driven around though.

They tend to push the car away from the house before lifting it or starting it. I hope it turns up, sadly I'd imagine all the easily saleable bits will have been stripped, crated and shipped east by now, anything easily recognisable will have been cubed and sold for scrap. They're nothing if not efficient, I just hope the insurance cough up with not too much fuss.
