That PassionFord thread is absolutely shocking and just backs up completely why the Ford RS lot these days are 'generally' regarded as a bunch of thieving pikeys. Think I'm being slanderous here? I can tell you about several friedns with gorgeous Cossies who will NOT take them to the RS Show because everyone just starts robbing bits off each other's cars in the car park!!!!!

I can't believe that thread ran so long. I read all of it adn so many people on there have the intelligence of a pencil. They just closed their ears when someone gaev them honest truelegal advice. All they thought was 'damn it, free car, I'm having that because there's a loophole in the law'. So many seem blinkered and wont listen despite being told obvious things like keeper and owner are different things, the rights of title etc. Anyone can 'keep' a car, but only the previous owner can let you 'own' it UNLESS the coucil/dvla have placed notice onthe car and actually taken it away, at which time, legally the car becomes THEIR property at which point (say if it went to auction) you COULD buy it and OWN it legitamately.

I'm going to join the forum just to make my point. I'm just glad and pleased that the MR2 community here didnt jump on it the same way that bunch of gypsies did. I know a couple of people who've sold of Ford RS cars just because of the mentality of the types these days. Their words, not mine..."thugs!"

Its strange how a certain type of person seems to own those vehicles....im not saying all of them are dodgy but 90% ? Every MR2 meet ive been to i have never felt that my car might be in danger of having parts stolen from it or being damaged.

i just read a few pages, dunno what to make of it, i don't think he really should have taken the car bu then i suppose it's better than it being crushed, i totaslly disagree with him selling it though,

what a stupid mentality some of the people have on there ](*,)

if youre good at scanning text, I would recommend reading the whole thing. It does make interesting reading. At some points the thugs almost start to make them selves sound in the right. Still shocked at the thought of some poor guy looking for his Escort Cossie while these thugs drive around in the things/haev 8k sitting in their back pocket.

If you read on, there some real inconsistencies which made me raise one eyebrow. Dont think it was quite as they described somehow.

yeah, i think the guy had either purposelyey crashed it himself, or got somebody to do it, just to see if the police would get in contact with him, that way HE personally couldn't get done for breaking into it, and there is no way it was opportunists that done it, the thing would have at least needed a battery, AND no way it would have been joyriders, i doubt if somebody had really stolen it they would just abandon it, i think the guy has deffo done it himself [-X

Oh according to the guy, all the tyres were flat, it had been sitting for two and a half years, battery flat , moss growing on it. From the pics, cant see any moss, and how did thieves turn up, break in, smash a steering wheel clamp, change the battery, wire in a part loom to bypass the alarm as he tells us, adn change four wheels without ANYBODY noticing?????? He keeps telling us it was ona public road adjacent to houses.

Oh and its damn lucky it started without too much fuss adn drove fine after all that time!

Major major HMMMMMMMMMMMMM......

i didn't read the bit about it needing the alarm bypassed,

so these thieves went to ALL that trouble to just abandon it??? after it's sat there for years, it's just a coincidence that he'd applied for a log book in that time???

i have a good mind to go apply for the logbook for it myself, and get in touch with the guy and say it's my car!!!

just to teach the thieving **** a lesson!!!!

whats really scary is the fact that, minus them setting up the car, so many Ford boys condone what they did. Those who know the law are in the vast minority. Dont think Ill buy a Cossie anytime soon! Shame, Ill always haev such respect for the Ford RS marque, all of them such great cars. Shame the owner (generally speaking) are such thugs these days.

yeah i get the same impression with impreza owners, up to about the 98(ish) models, around my area it really is just chavs who own them, or drug dealers!!

My thoughts exactly !!

The story is a load of old poo, way too many coincidencies for my liking....why did it happen to get knicked the night before he was about to pick it up and it gets crashed. Im thinking it was either some sort of insurance scam or possibly some sort of ringing trick, No idea you would want to broadcast to the entire cossie world (if you owned one you would be in a club these days) that he had found a 'escosie' and claimed it and then sold it. He sold it pretty quick too and is still driving his seira cosworth round.....i mean why would you do that !!!

Back on topic a little..... if the police were made aware of the MR2 that has been dumped then the registered keepers and insured parties would be contacted and asked about the vehicle. Do you know if it is a privately owned car park ?
