Well here are the 1st images of the recovered GTI. It's looking pretty sorry for itselft at the moment. One of the alloys has taken a serious battering whilst the front and back bumpers both need attention. The inside looks like the scum were living in the car! The CD changer was full of ripped CD's. Worst of all is the 2K5 miles they've put on the clock. The rear pipes tell the story!! I'll post some better photos when the car finally comes back and is hopefully closer to "A1" condition!!

Need bigger pics.  Sounds like the police need to tap into petrol station forecourt cameras for stolen car, number plate recognition as they must have put petrol in it several times to do that many miles.

i'm pretty sure they'd put some fake plates on so its not on the anpr camera's.  afterall it has done 2.5k miles.  - i bet they've been up and down the uk.

mines black also- only a few weeks ago saw a black pimped out mark 4 snooping around, outside.  i'm also vigilant but my house is pretty un-private so plenty of eyes and ears.
like i said b4 ' the gti is no1 crooks choice'
black is the choice colour for crooks as its stealthy, doesn't draws as much attention as a white one. and the design of the mark 6 gti is very subtle.  practical too- well u do need enough space for your crook mates and the plasma tv.....

btw is it a 5 door?  
this is going to 'f' up your gti experience.  damn car is worst than second hand.  very unfair.  i feel for ya.  mine has been thru a crash(not my fault) and i'm lucky its back to almost new.  
you can get it back to nearly new but u can't turn back the mileage.

Yeah definately a new wheel. It was in the boot of the car when I went over to see it. Thanks Mr insurance man. I think it'll be new bumpers too (see rear driver side)

Have you checked the oil level?
They can use quite a bit of oil over 2,500 miles.

The other bits can be replaced and cleaned up.
My interior looks like an Afghan village after just one wet and muddy dog walk.

Took this Golf GT 2.0D I'm driving around to the dealer for a service today. There's a new black 5 dr GTI in there and white 3 dr, Lucky buggers! So that'll be 3 or 4 black uns running round locally! Tell me they are still quite rare? I don't see many GTI's on my travels at all, let alone the black variety.
