Didn't want my second post in the forum to be this but unfortunately it's happened. My white 1991 mazda MX5 has just been stolen, at about 21:45 from West Jesmond in Newcastle. Police have already been round and it's been picked up on a few ANPR cameras, last seen on the A69 having also been seen on the A1. Pictures:     If anybody sees it, spots it on ebay or anything, please let me know ASAP. Any information will be very much appreciated. |

I'm not completely useless, I can be used as a bad example.

What worthless thieving pond scum. The damage looks pretty comprehensive, is it written off or are you going to save it?

According to Police it was actually found by a member of the public, who'd heard shouting/screaming and gone to have a look, to find my empty, damaged car with nobody in it. It'd had an arguement with a roadside barrier I think.
Suspect it's a write-off. My phone has been playing up so I've missed a call from the insurers' inspectors who've taken a look at it, but it's only a grands' worth of car and there's more than a grand's worth of damage.
I'm looking for a newer (non-MX5) car now to replace it and suspect anything salvagable from the MX5 I'll just sell, but I'm not staying away from MX5s forever, maybe a few years down the line I'll get one again.

Well, if you do accept the insurer's pay-out you might be able to buy the car back quite cheaply and sell the parts on etc. Or you could get something like an MGB and put the Mazda engine in it! ;D

gosh that looks wrecked. have you considered buying it back cheap and using the parts to install into a kit car (they are becoming a popular donor car, now that there are a lot of rotten ones selling for cheap) www.roadrunnerracing.net/the-roadrunner-sr2.html |
