The latest police word was that scrap metal dealers do this sort of thing.
It'll be heartbreaking to see my GTR being scrapped for a couple of hundred pounds. Maybe it's worthwhile looking for it int he local scrap yards, made a list of the scrap yards in the surrounding areas. I will have to go searching for it door to door. I can't be relying on the police to find my car.

No way... not this kind of car to scrap surely?
Someone know what it is... if you just want to nick car to scrap you surely will pick a Mondeo as it will have more metal in them.

Agreed, hard to believe that a car of the spec of yours Nigel was just stolen to be melted down. I think they knew what they were stealing... Really really hope you get it back fella and i hope these people get what they deserve in the end. I know what im wishing upon them right now.

Don't believe scrap dealers would nick a high value car like this. Much easier to pick up old Mondeos as said.
No, the car is either for export or parts. Parts we'll spot. ![]() Even photos of proud new owners in other countries are easily seen nowadays! So I am sure it won't just disappear. It might just take a while to surface.

Nigel, words & other people like me can't express or begin to know how your feeling. Many years ago I had a full on track-spec car get stolen & it was like losing a limb so I can empathise. Its all over ebay mate & I've personally added it to many of the forums I'm on as well so we can only hope.
Please feel free to add my name to the lynch mob when we find these people as well.

Posted on our Facebook thread mate. We have quite a big community in the drift scene around Europe so let's hope some of our friends might have seen it. If it leaves uk and into Europe some of our business clients we deal with will see it as they deal with alot of skyline stuff in their countries. I will send them all an email as well tomorrow morning when im back on my work computer so they are aware of it for you mate. Hopefully we can catch those scum.

Shared on FB too. I really hope this gets found and the culprits caught. There appears to have been a fair few Skylines stolen just recently- not good.
