Stealing a part restored car doesn't make any sense unless you strip it for parts........but depending how much has been done, some of the parts won't be worth having.

This will be in pieces by now and probably sold before it was nicked just like Land Rovers.

TBH how much was the owner in love with his car if it had been out of commission since 2015 ? The whole thing stinks to me.

The garages insurance would have covered this car anyway.

Three years rebuild? What’s wrong with that?

It was accident damage and most normal customers would expect 6 months for a Morgan repair not 3 years.

So judgemental based on so few facts.

I often wonder why you feel it necessary to post so many times each day but refrain from passing judgement.

I know how I'd feel if I had my car nicked then read on a German Morgan forum that I'd done it myself.

Something like this seems to sound most logical in this strange situaton(but no german TV Show like this). Perhaps friends want to help or something like this.

But as I wrote: It sounds very strange..


I hope this is the right english discription.

I did not want to judge, only give an infomation from the german FB site!

It took my Dad 10 years to rebuild his 4/4, delay of 6 years whilst he nursed my mum through what proved to be terminal cancer and my brother for 2 years after stroke at the tragically early age of 33. Got there in the end though,which is all that counts

Hope the Plus 8 is found and the perps are brought to book!
