Got back from work today to find it missing from Purley/Kenley driveway, must have gone at some point overnight on 24th Feb or day of 25th Feb.

More info and pictures tomorrow.

MGC, so straight six.
British racing green.
I inherited it from my much missed grandparents, so massive sentimental value.
Engine had BMW fuel injectors & microsquirt ECU, probably the only fuel injected MGC in the UK. I can identify every individual component in the whole car.
I personally retrimmed the car in black leather with white piping.
At least 1000GBP reward for information leading to its return. This car is pretty much a unicorn, I can't believe it will disappear. If anyone can help me please get in contact asap.

Nick, sorry to hear this. Be sure to contact the MGCC, MGOC and issue on social media/Facebook type sites. Collectively, there are a good number of MG folk out there who'll keep eyes open and ears to the ground for you + if they try to 'ring' the C and sell on to a dealer/through auction, they will be aware of the car; the good ones will notify the police.

ps post as many pics as possible [not including VIN details]
