Hi all, I hope this is ok, didn't see anything about stolen car posts in the T&Cs! Apologies if it's against the rules.

My Capri was stolen last night (Monday 15th May) from the Worsley area of Salford.

Very distinctive car - Black with white stripes, 15" revolution 5-spokes (on new uniroyal tyres I only had fitted on Friday), big bore exhaust, no badges on the back, yellow recaro front seats and yellow GL back seats and cards. 2.9 cossie BOA under the bonnet, you'll hear it a mile off (see pic).

If anyone offers you any spares or a black shell in generally decent condition (bit of bubbling by the rear arches), please let me know! I'm going round as many spares brokers, garages and clubs as I can!

Best wishes,

Sam

Gutted for you and not least as I assume it has been an everyday car as the position you parked in constantly changed. It is a busy road, surely someone must have seen something? Fingers crossed for you.

Great car. Scumbags.
I hope you get it back okay and they get a good shoeing in the process.

Tyres fitted on Friday - stolen on the Monday.
Would be my first surveillance job.

Update: Car spotted early Tuesday morning in Ormskirk, so likely somewhere round the Southport area if it's not yet in a shipping container.

There's been an amazing amount of help, support and spreading the news around forums and social media, thanks everyone!

Good luck. Hopefully a PH'er will spot it. I wish the culprits a good leathering btw.
