1 of 4! I didn't think it was that rare. I read on another forum that there was armed Gardai at the entrance to the estate as Bertie Ahern lives there too.

Poor guy. I've had my car broken into numerous times before. Thank god they never managed to steal it OR burn it out for that matter. But it makes you feel insecure afterwards.

To whoever done this, their balls + a bench vice. It's the final solution.

While a feel for the guy can ask a genuine question, what does he expect? A car like that will be a huge magnet for trouble, anywhere in the country. Anyone who buys a car like that can expect grief, it is a pity, but a fact of life.

Yeah, the guys who did this are dead right. I'm never going to get a nice car like that, sure your only tempting the poor underprivileged car robbers, in fact your getting them in to trouble.

Cop on Stevie Dakota. The owner has every right to buy what car he likes.

Stevie Dakota

Steady Lightening, did I say the criminals were right? Of course he has the right to buy whatever he likes, but he has to be cognisent of the potential consequences. I know quite a guy who declined a BMW 6 series convertable because he didn't want the grief that may come his and his families way at 3am.

As I said, its a fact of life. Scumbags will always come for these cars.

JohnCleary

I wouldn't sleep at ngiht owning those cars, knowing they were on a public road.

You need to be able to garage those puppies - It's a sad state, but true (imho)

What's the story with the special edition EVO? Higher spec or something?

Lord Nikon

Some questions have popped into my head...

Why take the evo when the Rs4 is clearly the better of the two.
Why is the Audi parked there, of all places?

LOL was waiting for someone to say it. I await the PC brigade response "RS4 should have been clamped" :pac:

Where they on duty ? Where were they when this happened ?

Most VAG cars have a good immobiliser system, basically pointless trying to rob one unless you have the keys.

Yeah, I got all excited there... Didn't mean to sound so smart. The car didn't have the ECU in place, they got frustrated and burnt it out.

"if I can't have it, neither can you" Stupid cnuts wouldn't even be able to drive a car like that properly.

If caught they should be tied by their ankels and wrists to the back of two cars facing opposite directions and let the owner and another drive off very slowly. When they eventually split, what's left should be driven around whatever sh!t hole estate they came from, for all their mates to see.

+1.

Unfortunately this is part and parcel of owning good and rare cars. I feel gutted for those poor cars just looking at them, so you can only imagine how bad it must be for the owner.

Welcome to Ireland, land of céad míle fáilte and lovely people:mad::rolleyes:!

It's time that cars had their own blackbox and CCTV system so that the cnuts that did this are caught.

For those who were enquiring, the Evo 6 Extreme was a limited edition model of the Evo 6. They made 50 of them. So far as I've seen they were available with 2 colour schemes. One was white car with red spoiler, side skirts, and front splitters, and the other was silver car with black spoiler, skirts and splitters. It had Extreme decals on the wings. The normal Evo 6 had around 276bhp, the Extreme had 350bhp, lightened, full 4 point racing harnass, different bucket seats that are kind of rally style, and larger brembo brakes with the ABS removed to give a more direct feel.
I longed after one for years! Never saw one. They seemed to escape much public attention. Not as "famous" if you like as the Impreza 22B was, despite that being made for the Jap market only, and 424 of them.
So, ya... insurance is not much of a replacement for that car!
I think we need to go the way of England where the driveway is a retractable lift.

Holy sh!t?? Are you serious?? Was it in Beresford/The Copse????

Rowley Birkin QC

As terrible as it is lads, and it is absolutely sh!te, I can't see the Guards giving this any more attention than a Micra and a Corsa being burned out. It's a pity but probably true.

But his one is an Evo 6 Extreme RS450, I thought even more rare? Can't remember where I read it now!:o

EDIT: ahh, the 450 is not bhp, but the torque figure.

seems mad that knacks can gain access to an estate and set fire to 2 or 3 cars as easily as this...

was there not security gates?

cars like this need to be garaged from our scumbag society.

E92

All performance cars need their own digital CCTV system(one that is very good at resisting fire obviuosly) that can clearly and readily identify individuals that are up to this sort of behaviour.

I'm normally the last person to encourage nanny state-ism but on this occasion it really is needed.


You see the trouble for the the guy with the lovely Evo, RS4 and the 205 GTi is that nobody did the "lethal" offence of speeding, so our nutter Government/RSA etc will do SFA about these type of crimes while the "real killers" who go over the speed limit must be hunted down night and day with speed cameras, lower speed limits etc:mad::rolleyes:.

I agree, lets look at the bigger picture here. If a criminal gets caught setting fire to a car, he probally won't go to jail, previous offences or not.
They catch me speeding, no NCT or no tax they take my car away from me.
(not quite but you get the picture).
