Sorry to hear that, but take small consolation that they didn't mess up paint or bodywork in the process.

Agreed. Small consolation though, I know. Like you, I wish I could catch punks like this in the act. There's nothing quite as satisfying as administering a good whipping when it's called for....

At least no bodywork damage is a slight consolation.

A 'good whipping' - there's some moderates around here!

Keep an eye on eBay for the next few days. It may well appear.

Glad you've still got your sense of humour about it. (Working in Solihull has nothing to do with that

Hope it wasn't an XK8 owner with delusions of grandeur.
Look for an XK8 with an "R" badge on it, then put nails in his tyres when he isn't looking ( jus kiddin )
