my A8 stolen
 
had my A8 taken from me today.a$$holes hijacked my mom as she was leaving the house.luckily she is fine but now im without my car.
last week friday someone set off the house alarm and tampered with the gate and about a month ago at a shopping centre some guys where taking photos of the polo we have,then on this weekend which just past we heard that a black polo same as our was stolen at a school near us.so i suspect the polo was the target but ended up with the A8.

Gutted for you mate, glad to hear the old girl's ok though.

Glad to here the folk are OK, but gutted about the A8. My guess is the photos of your Polo will be used to clone it with the stolen one

Still, its RHD isnt it, might be exported over here... cant hurt posting some details.

Glad no one was harmed...

Sorry to here the A8 has been stolen, but glad your mom is not hurt.
Feckin scum should be hung by the short & curlies until they stop breathing.

Sadly I've hear of this happening a number of times in SA

Aaaaarghh.... Really sad news Mate. There are so few of these vehicles
around in our parts I get really ****ed when I hear of this.

There was an S8 stolen a few months ago in East London... only used for a robbery
and then abandoned after being used as a 4 x 4.

The unfortunate part is that it is probably already over the border in Zim or Botswana by now.

I really hope you are lucky and recover her.

Most importantly Glad you mom was not harmed.

Know 2 guys that left SA after similar incidents, armed raids on cars and houses.. Glad to hear no one was hurt at least.

Sorry to hear that, but as has been said its good that your Mum is OK, the car can be replaced, but you only have one Mum:D

not sure if this might help.but if it ever gets sold to some drug lord or who ever in some other country, they wont be able to get parts for its as i had my brother get it flagged as stolen on audi's datatbase.
