Hi,

A friend of a friend had his R34 GTR stolen yesterday from his house in Livingston ( Just outside of Edinburgh ).

It was found this morning in surrey however as the police went to find the person and arrest them, another guy managed to drive away in it

Please keep you're eyes peeled.

The car was seen using 'R90 SKY' plates which are fake.

pretty bad news.
shame seeing cars like this getting swiped but i guess it is the nature of not keeping them garaged.

also, Robbie Grindlay is a crap photographer.

Ugh this makes me sick. Dirty thieving scumbags!

I hope the car and valuables are recovered and the thieves are caught ASAP.

Well, car has been found in one piece.

Apparently it was found but not recovered. By the time the police turned up it had disappeared again, according to what I've seen on Facebook anyway.

That was true this morning but police have it now

At least it's been found in one piece. Scumbags nicked a mint Datsun 260z in Dublin last winter. They took the wheels off and burnt the rest of it.

Haha , Robbie isn't a photographer, he works in his dads café next door to our bike shop! That's his Corsa in the back which is now a 64 plate Astra VXR

Not surprising from the scumbags over here. Ultimately why my Evo currently doesn't live in this country.

Good to see they got it back ok. Still love these even though I do think they look dated now!

EDIT: Snap

Only twenty in the country? That's never right?

slick rick · 12 Dec 2014 at 17:44

There used to one that I would see quite often around by me with the reg V5PEC which was pretty cool.

Have not seen it for ages now.

Who keeps 150k worth of jewelry and cash in their house?

Woburn Road, Sutton - lovely place that is.

A lot of my old clients came from that area. They must be branching out again.
