Stolen Van
« on: September 17, 2014, 07:02:20 am »
Morning all.

Just got up and found somebody has stolen my van, (nice of them isn't it. to put me out of business).

It's a white Mercedes Sprinter 311 CDI high roof medium wheel base REG Number MT04 XXA - no sign writing on it.

It has a Hydarmaster Maxxe 470 built in along with all the usual tanks - hose reals - wands - hand/upholstery tools ect ect.

Please keep a eye out for it and report to the police if seen,  it has been stolen from Leigh-on-sea in Essex.

Mob: 07801 140474

Thank You.
The Old Man of Essex

That's bad news Tony,

A real bad feeling when the realisation kicks in, I had my van and equipment stolen a number of years ago.

As for the police , worse than useless , arrived 7 hours later , said " we have just drove down the road ,but not seen any thing"   as if !!
they even said probably gypsys , their is a camp a few miles away but no point in looking it will be stripped down by now .

Feel for you, hope they find it .

Sorry to hear Tony, hope you had insurance for van and equipment. Spend some time on driving around your area as a lot of vehicle thief's are left to see if there is a tracker fitted. Also if you have a local face book page put-on there. Unfortunately this part of Essex is being hammered with vehicle thefts.

Will monitor eBay... Those bits and pieces will no doubt be on there.
Fingers crossed your insurance pays out

also check out  gumtree and local sales pages on facebook.

Or hopefully they have crashed the van and have burnt to death :)

I used to have a heavy motorbike chain that went round the clutch pedal and through the steering wheel.
