Nice one dude, Ive thrown it up on FDUK too

Who in their right mind would steal something so obviously traceable? I mean it\'s not exactly subtle like just stealing an average jap car, it\'s plastered in sponsorship and aftermarket parts, not exactly the easiest car to fob-off as "No it\'s not mine, I\'m driving it back to my mates"

Wishing you at Japspeed all the luck to get it back in one piece though!

Its utter madness

The problem is, without plates the police will have a hard time picking it up on ANPR or anything similar

Surely they will pull it over for not having any plates at all

I very much doubt the people who stole that would be silly enough to drive it on the road. It is probably an organised thing which means its probably in a lorry and likely already out of the country. Then it\'ll be stripped. It\'s either that or some dumb ass teenagers thought it\'d be a fun joy ride. Now realise how much trouble they\'ll be in so its either hidden or burnt out. Those are usually the harsh realities of theft these days. If the .......s can\'t have it then no one can attitude

Lots of high spec Jap drift cars seem to be getting stolen lately, it\'s disturbing that the cars being stolen are all quite high profile competition cars...

carlbrainiac · June 12, 2011, 01:11:41 AM

My guess would be they target the high spec cars because they are worth more when stripped and after market parts are difficult to trace.

Sorry just realised Im sounding like a professional theif lol. Im not at all. Its just I work with bikes as in Push cycles. And its the same with those. Most common thefts are either cheap rubbish bikes usually by teenages for a laugh. Or High end bikes with good parts to sell on. Same sort of thing really.

Then it\'s probably on a private freighter by now at one of the docks, just a shame the people taking that video didn\'t get the drivers face

Rung up Kent police - Nothing immediately obvious on their systems of a chase.

Ive made a full report to them of the description of the vehicle and circumstance

Also made a note of the video and some vague timeframes - its been broadcast over all the kent regional police radios and their traffic channels

Anyone has any updates form them call them on their non emergency number

Cad reference - 12-0736
