Just found out a Friend of mine has had there mini van project stolen :(

Wast Taken from the Herefordshire Area on 30th July. Can only assume it was taken on a trailer as it is pretty much just a shell.

Hopefully whoever took it is as stupid as the guys that took the japspeed scoob. As these are pretty rare now, especially in this condition. So if it goes up for sale it will stick out like a sore thumb :)

Keep an eye out

W8nkers!

ill defo keep an eye out pal

That looks Lush, i'd scrap doing my polo up to have something like that!

Will keep an eye out mate

its a very odd thing to steal, just a bare shell unless they already have a buyer they will have a hard time trying to shift it unnoticed and not many parts to sell on or much weight for scrap.

hope it gets returned to its rightful owner and the idiots that stole it punished.

I really don't know why someone would steal a shell of one of these. Like B-shaw said it can't possibly sell without it sticking out, only an enthusiast would buy it so chances are they'll know it's been stolen and it won't be worth enough in scrap because they are so small.

Some real idiots out there.

may be hard to sell as a shell but if they had a rotten one it wouldnt be so hard to shift built up....

Its either going to end up in another country or it was stolen for there own use.

I cant see why you would steal a shell otherwise.

Sad though, when you follow the buildthread of something then it gets stolen

Had a certain honda engine waiting to go in it too i think :(

vtec engine in a mini = WIN!

but as its bin stolen that really fucking sucks!!! I'm guessing it was in some sort of unit which means someones probly had there eye onit a while

Can't say i know many in the Mini circle round me but as Gloucestershire is next to Herefordshire it might end up here................

My mates got a clubman with a C20XE in they are awesome but I agree with you Toby on its fate!

Was it not secured properley?

I feel gutted for your mate. Will keep an eye out in Cardiff.

Ahh gutted, i love old mini vans!.. i'll keep an eye out :)

already spread all over fb. good luck to the chap!!!!! fucking tosspots!

il try and get hold of a guy i knew,hes big into minis,restores them and sells on,also big into the mini shows

used to work with him back when i had a mini,and he knows lots of people involved in that marque

haven't seen him for a while but will try to contact him,so he can hear and see anything regarding this van

Keep an eye out down by me. Doubtful anyone will be seeing it on the road anytime soon though, and if it is, will be resprayed. Fucking sucks balls. I blame the looters!
