Well, the GTI was found in Bradford (Cloned with a 57 plate from Manchester). I went over to SOS to hand over the spare key.

It looked like it had been involved in a few other incidents as there were holes in the boot - like someone had been at it with an pickaxe

Luckily my insurance (Highway) paid out after 6 days.

The Police found forensic evidence in my car and know the scumbag who was in it (surname Hindle for those in Bradford)

The police have charged him but it seems like he'll just get done for handling stolen goods

He is wanted for burglries in Leeds too so hopefully the police can get him for those.

Glad to hear you got it back mate!

Looking at a piece of kit in Makro at the moment, its a gps tracking kit for £130.

It can be used at any point and it will text you the precise location of your car whenever and wherever >.<

Cant link it I'm afraid as the Makro website does not let you search for products etc.

I have a Makro around the corner from me, had a look and I have to admit it looks like a solid bit of kit to have, do you have a makro near you at all?

I know its on one of the mails they send out so I'll keep looking
