Shocking picture to see but its good to hear you're back in a VX so soon.

 

Just a side note though in terms of finding the culprits It may be worth your time to have a browse over youtube/facebook/twitter or even posting a thread on pistonheads to see if anything has seen anything similar.

This strikes me as the kind of crime that the idiotic culprit would film themselves committing and post all over social media

I also have only just seen this, bloody hell what a waste. Just what do the little bastards get out of that. Let's hope in the future a pride and joy belonging to them gets trashed and they can think back to how you felt. Police had any luck yet ?

They don't seem to care much. In fact they haven't even bothered their Arse questioning the witnesses. I live in a low crime area but the fact that there had been 4 fires in the past 2 months doesn't seem to Bother them.

Only just seen this, gutted for your last car mate, I cant say how angry i am at little s&*%s that do that to someones pride and joy. Good to see how responsive CCI are tho (Iv been with them nearly 5 years now). Glad you have replaced it :-) Ryans car (Now yours) is a good car, pretty quick from the few track days Iv done with him. I hope it gets some more good track work now, im sure it will :-)

Quite deplorable really, if you live in the wrong area then the police can't be bothered, they want to be paid but don't want to work! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-29053978
