breaks my fking heart having to write this...

My car has been stolen from outside my house in Reading some time between 6:30pm and 2am last night. The battery is st so it'll probably get stuck wherever its been left. Any info etc. would be greatly appreciated, can't really offer a reward but I'll shower you with love and affection.

It's super recognisable from the brown colour and the fact it's a 30 year old Austin Mini. Reg B335 EDA.

Someone please give my car back it's Christmas frown
Anyone else have a problem with this page?

Although it doesnt mention the v5(i don't even know if tractors have one) is there anything that this could be used for that wasnt slightly dodgy? Are you likely to get anything useful?

Are we looking at the same car - the front suspension is pure MK1/2 Escort as used by the Dutton Melos. The bodywork's Dutton......

OK so it says Rover and actually has an Essex V6 fitted, but it's a Q reg - I can't see any issues here.

I agree. In that form and presumably with the engine change not recorded I think getting this correctly registered will be a very expensive proposition. The days of simply reporting the changes have long gone. I doubt the veracity of the explanation. Best avoided IMO. I cannot see any Dutton in there. That will be the problem I suspect.

Quite right it has been on before. Definitely not kosher an unregistered NG body kit on a supposed Ditton underpinnings. In the abscence of photos who knows.? I would definitely avoid. A genuine NG (I have one) would fetch considerably more but the underpinnings would be Marina or possibly MG a fair few MG B GT's went this way it can be a very worthwhile build. A few photos would help. Currently there are none. I can understand why.

Bircham Norfolk?

My neck of the woods and colleagues in the Norfolk Constabulary have been alerted to it. cop

Here's one for the legal bods. Obviously if the identity is used on a stolen vehicle the person who sold it is an accessory to the theft after the fact, but if the identity is used as advertised to bypass the IVA and the vehicle fails on the open road killing the occupants and/or a third party will the seller of this identity be an accessory to manslaughter? scratchchin

I've asked and will let you know.

The number plate "A5 SNN" is for sale without a retention certificate. Is he that daft as to cover the kit car log book but try to sell the plate?

Reported. But I doubt it will do any good. I reported it when it was listed before
