Anyone had there green Vantage or db9 stolen?

[Mike Scott]

Guys,

I wanted to enquire if anyone has had a green vantage or db9 stolen recently?
The reason I ask is that I was driving through warrington (small village) between northamptonshire and olney and noticed a Aston Martin being stripped down and minus any plates.

I appreciate that this could be a innocent case of someone having work done to their pride and joy but it striked me as a little suspicions given that it was surrounded by a group of younger looking guys and outside a backstreet garage that I wouldn't expect to be working on a Aston Martin.

Pretty sure it was a green vantage but was travelling at speed so could have been a db9

This sounds disturbingly connected.

Info from article:

"Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Constable Anna Burrows at Notting Hill Police Station on 020 8246 0131 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 11."

Interesting, I might have to make a call. As mentioned it could be 100% genuine however the only reason I could see a car being stripped down as it is was for painting and I would be surprised if such a garage had paint shop on site.

Is this related to the thread posted by Vantagefan on Thursday?

Looks like the same report, Jockman.

However this works out, well spotted Mike, reports like yours are never a waste of time.

Think you might be referring to Tony Russell's post on 24th September George H.

The link attached to Vantagefan's post seems to be the same as the one I posted.

What did the police say?

Regardless of the colur of the car in the previous thread it's worth reporting.

Yes.

I can at least take solace in the fact we progressed further than the Scots

Or were you on about the football? England were equally dire at that last night.

[RichB]

Given the natue of this thread perhaps keep it on topic?

[Ice27]

You should definitely phone the local police and let them know!!!!!
They will follow it up with the DC in London if necessary.

Graham I am at my caravan in Snowdonia as we speak and there were a lot of happy faces in Llanberis when I went for my paper - good luck for the semis.

Rich - My best wishes for a favourable outcome to the car theft. Smilies are difficult on the iPhone.

Can't see the boys/girls in blue doing anything about it till Monday, by which time the DB9 will be on it's way to Harwich (in several boxes).

Nice. We'll see if you're still as flippant if this ever happens to your car.
