I've just had one of my sets of wheels stolen! :tard:

There they were piled up outside the house, next to my mountain bike and a set of saab wheels.

The Skoda wheels were locked together in a pile with the bathroom radiator leant against them.

So the wire was cut to get them loose of my lockdown stake and the lock was taken with the wheels but the bike and saab wheels were left!

Bloody typical - they could have had any of the other stuff and I wouldnt care!

If its Pikeys - why not take it all - all good scrap!

SO must be someone after skoda wheels - coz the tyres were crap.

Ah well :rolleyes:

Insurance company cant replace them from their approved garages (No shit!)


So its down to getting quotes - I could just get some of the owners club or is this one of those time we get an upgrade!

Nah - Insurance have wriggled out!

£40 per tyre and £18 per rim! :shock: They reckon Skoda were selling Alloy wheels in 2001 for £18 each!

The rapid is slow - waiting for parts. They are being shipped over as we speak (I hope)

This year should be good Chris!

:rofl: I can just see that happening.

I fitted macrolon to my old shed windows in the old house. The shed was made of bricks. I took Gill out to show her how strong the plastic was. I took a swing with a club hammer and the fucker bounced back and hit me in the shoulder :omgrofl:

If they come back again it'll have to be "plastic" took nearly a week to get back on the road and the parts supplier I used swears he can't find another window.I had to have a new one.I
used parts gateway which put me in touch with half a dozen ldv specialists only one came through.

i've cut a template just in case.

scumbags steal the strangest things,serves me right for not making the dog sleep in the van.
