STOLEN - 4.3.09, from Bristol South

[Buddy]

My Series 1 Mazda, in Maya gold, with colour co-ordinated wheel trims and TWR racing bodykit.  Stolen from Coronation Road in Bristol.

Reg: KAR 390Y

Please, anyone in the Bristol area (or anywhere else for that matter) who sees this car, please call Bristol police on 0845 456 7000.  Crime ref is: 27491/09.

I know there are a few first gens in Bristol, and a few third gens too, so if anybody does see it, please do call the police.  It will be the only Series 1 in Maya Gold with a TWR racing bodykit in Bristol, and they probably STILL won\'t find it.

Any assistance gratefully received as I am truly hacked off.

Many thanks, Mary

You should let Dep-o magazine know as they have a stolen section, I think Retro rides do as well?

Can you give any details about the interior colour, milage etc, mods etc?  That way if it turns up for sale somewhere the details might give it away.

Really sorry to hear about this

Seriously Very Sorry to hear this Mary. Do you want to put the VIN up on this Forum in case it appears in a breakers or e bay. Is that a good thing?
This car was on the MRC calendar 2009? Very small in a collage though?
All eyes peeled up here and on e bay.

Also posted now on the Ex....le site and also on the Irish Rotary Club Site

Hi guys, sorry for the delay in replying, I wanted to check with the insurers whether I should put up the VIN number.  They said not, as car can then be cloned.  All greek to me, but nonetheless.  

I am trying to find any photos, but had not taken any myself (had kept meaning to).  It was down at Tim\'s for a while waiting on an engine, so he knows what it looks like too and I know he\'s keeping an eye out.

TWR racing bodykit -nice spoiler, low and not naff looking, but with a gap, not like the solid rubber spoilers.  Back bumper end was shaped underneath the car and front end had lowered bumper, but not over low.  sides had \'side step\' trim which looked like the ones I saw on an Elford which was for sale on ebay recently.  The whole thing, including the wheel trims was Maya gold, bodykit, everything.  It had a solid sunroof, again gold, not clear.  Registration is very distinctive - KAR 390Y.  All my friends used to spot it in Bristol and say they had seen it.  I\'ll eat my hat if there is another one like it - I\'ve seen a couple of Maya golds on ebay, but not with the bodykit or the colour coded wheel trims.  As mentioned before, please keep your eyes out.  My chances of coming up with another car the same are nil I would imagine.

Does anyone have a scan of the photo of it on the calendar? Or Clive, if you read this, could you send me a copy of the photo?  Any help would be much appreciated,
