Stolen in Aberdeen: BMW 335i - H9WSR

[didelydoo]

Have any of the car forums posted up a list of names and addresses of the likely culprits? The more folk who are aware of who it is, the more likely something may...happen.

that rs4 seen racing with a rav 4.

helicopter now confirmed to be searching over aberdeen city (mastrict / northfield)so they are stepping up to the challenge, at last

Hope they chop the bds hands off!

Wow, just read this whole thread, seems your local police force need to get their priorities right.

I'm glad I live in a good area and car is garaged, but when I'm not using the car on a daily basis I make mechanical amendments so that the car can not be driven if the worst were to happen.

Hope all comes good in the end to all involved.

Happy to catch speeders and people drunk in down that is all. I had a tv stolen, knew who it was, after interviewing them the police officer said they said i had given it to them and they werent going any further.

Didn't even know Grampian Police had use of a helicopter or is it just an oilfield one with spotters inside?

Poor lads car will be ragged beyond belief by now, wouldn't be surprised if it has run out of petrol and been dumped. What gets me with all these sightings on Facebook etc, are these people actually phoning in the whereabouts of it or just posting about it! I'm sure the police would happily take a few hints as to where it is!

[BorkFactor]

I didn't realise Grampian Police had a chopper? Any news on the RS4?

[RossD860]

RS4 has been torched. Just saw a pic on FB. Absolute little b******s

[Ray meerkat]

Mother little

[Shandy81]

Are the BIB doing anything to combat this problem, or is it really just too much for them to be bothered about!?!

I know it's been said before, but they know who they are.

[Yanayaya]

I can't believe that. They torched it, GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
What a nonsense something has just got to be done about this it's getting crazy.
I can only sympathise with the owner, such a good car gone to waste for a joyride from some chavs.

How much longer until a vigilante mob take matters into their own hands?

Surely the police must do something more to tackle this epidemic?

Agreed, I read on someone's FB comment that their car got nicked and their son beat up the thief and now he's up in court for assault.
Whilst I don't openly condone his actions, I hope he gets admonished or the case does not make it through court.

I condone it 1000%, if these little thieving scrote fkers want to play at being big boys then they need to accept the consequences

The sooner a vigilante mob get hold of at least one of them the better, i am not a violent person but i would not think twice about really really hurting these individuals to cause them permanent disability

[Rog B]

Well I think I know who stole it after a bit of digging, I have contacted the owner with the names, however they are 2 steps ahead of me and have the same names already. Will not be posted on here.

The thing is Aberdeen is (or at least was, until very recently) a very nice area with great insurance premiums and many nice cars are garaged. This is a relatively new thing and I just don't think the police can cope with it.

I genuinely hope some real harm comes to the thieves. Ok, it's their families who will really suffer but let's be honest here - these little ****s are not the result of high quality parenting are they?

You would hope sooner rather than later but if this did happen they would be locked up and the key thrown away well before the scum doing this get picked up!

At least the press (if you can call the EE press) has run a story on it.

If that was my RS4 I'd be delighted it was torched.
I wouldn't want it back after they ranted it.

That's fine so long as it's a completely run-of-the-mill car like an Audi which you could very easily replace like for like with insurance money. Not so good if your car isn't a (admittedly big engined) eurobox which is somewhat harder to replace regardless of the money aspects. Even rarer mainstream cars which had lots of options etc are very hard to replace like for like. Find a car of the same spec and it won't be as well maintained etc.

Far better the thieves die in their next attempt. Hopefully the next one they steal will catch fire whilst they're in it.
