Stolen OSF "s...

[Mr.Sumo]

...or are people taking advantage of the situation ....?

 

There seems to be in recent times a number of OSF "s stolen .

 

Without wishing to cast dispersions on anybody from anywhere within the U.K , do you think there maybe an element within the OSF community that might think ...mmm...i could make a couple of quid here or am i just being cynical.......

 

Discuss.......................

 

 

( The only reason i ask , is i was approached recently and asked " did i want to lose my Escort ? "....... )

was it your wife who suggested it? lol

 

i think there is always an element of 'insurance jobs' out there. If people get tight for cash then its an easy way to offload a project.

 

But in the same respect its also 100% likely that it could be stolen legitimately.

Ain"t that the truth Rick

[Mrs O/H/C]

i think in this economic climate.. there are lots of people looking at ways to get hold of extra cash ... depends if you can live with yourself being so dishonest

[mk1super]

Have to say Sumo thats a scary thought i mean insurance folks could take the stand point of not giving agreed value etc

Speaking from personal experiance i believe it was someone i know in general or from on any site that knows me or my garage.

 

But it does make me mad,

its proper wrong what is happening, but i feel like myself true osf owners know what their cars mean to them so hopefully they would have more respect and not steal someone else's osf.
