STOLEN: Red Honda CRX

blastman

Hi all

My red Honda CRX (not the Del Sol convertible model) was stolen from the side of my house in Balbriggan last night. It's not driveable at the moment so someone had to tow it away. It's a fairly unusual car and pretty distinctive looking (very low, white 5-spoke wheels). Reg is 90 D 56284. If you saw this being towed or on the back of a lorry anytime after 1 a.m. today, please let me know.

Any info appreciated

Sorry to hear man - will keep it in mind.

roughly where in balbriggan was it removed from? (obv dont publish your address!!) sorry to hear that will keep an eye out. did you have a chassis number or anything like that?

blastman

Skerries Road side, Morphéus, I'll have to check the log book when I get home for the chassis number.

Jaysus blastman thats a bitch. Will keep an ear out. Hopefully you get it back.

Did you check that the council or similar didn't tow it? It's just that you mention that it's not driving and I am guessing (maybe wrongly) that it's been sitting there a while? You mentioned that it's down the side of your house?
If not hope you get it back.. Any ideas why somebody might want it?
Any shops or premises nearby leading out of balbriggan that might have CCTV cameras outside that might be of use?

Yeah agree with Homer. Try the Apple garage near the motorway for cameras and I am sure the banks and Eurospar have C.C.T.V cameras.

Hope you get your car back.

It's not a standard CRX, that's the only reason I can think of that anyone would go to the bother. I haven't been able to find out for sure yet that the council didn't take it, but it's been there for a while and as far as I know none of the neighbours had any issues with it. Have spoken to the local Super about it, hoping to hear back from him tomorrow.

Thanks, China!

I really doubt they would have been out on a covert mission at 1am.

Is there anyone here from around Gormanston that might have seen the car in the area last weekend or early this week? I was told it had been seen in the area but when I checked out the location I was given there was no sign of it, just wondering if anyone else might have spotted it.

Might be no harm to stake out Gormo beach a few evenings/nights?

Will keep my eye out. I go walking around the area a fair bit. The hubbie works in Balbriggan so I've asked him to keep his eye out as well.

I spotted a white one in Julianstown recently (I'm nearly sure it was a CRX). It was parked in a driveway so I didn't see the registration. I remembered this thread so just thought I'd mention it. PM me for more exact directions if you think it's worth checking out.

No info, but I feel your pain. 2 years I had a car parked up, in Balbriggan as well, that I was working on repairing myself. Came home from work and it was gone. It wasn't driving so it must have been towed as well.

I know this isn't any help to you but it should be a warning to anyone else reading this.
