That's both me and the car. I parked up my car on Wednesday evening and then got a call from Plod this morning telling me that the car has been stripped of the front seats.
If anyone sees a car with a pair of tan bucket seats that really shouldn't have them please let me, or Plod, know
Am going to drown my sorrows now
Thanks

I'd parked it in Richmond on a main road that is overlooked by lots of retirement flats. You'd have thought that if anyone were going to call the police when the alarm went off it would be the wrinklies
Here's the "before" shot
will work out uploading the "after" version

That has to be someone who really knows what they are doing, possibly stolen to order?
Any other damage or missing parts to the rest of the car?

Agreed, can't be many cabs with that interior colour.

They took the seats, gear knob, surround and interion light
They trashed the drivers door panel and some of the instrument stalks
Oddly they left all the Euros I keep in the arm rest for the toll roads to Le Mans and they also seem not to like my taste in music as they left a big pile of CDs

Peasant scum deserve to crash and burn, sorry to see that, i'd be gutted too, along with...vengeful !!!
Well, they all say about the power of the web, why not post the info on
Facebook to all your mates, see if it spreads, maybe, dare i say it, bit on
YouTube, offer a slight reward and see if someone grasses the bast*rds, gotta be worth trying, never seen that colour on an RS so it should be obvious.

Doesn't look like it, though they did have trouble getting it into gear when driving it on to the low loader.
The fingerprint dust is going to be a bugger to clean off

fingers crossed for you, lets hope it's noted fairly widespread so people take notice.
