Have we moved on from banger racers to rally boys being the villains of the piece?

I'm pretty confident no-one has ever said that ALL banger boys are wrong'uns or villains. Personally, scumbag thieves without respect for other people's possessions are scumbags - whatever their hobby.
I think it would be safe to say that this car is likely to have been nicked by someone involved in a car 'scene' somewhere and it saddens me to think that they're amongst us.

Sad times. I would expect mk2's are stolen for 3 reasons: 1) to replace a rally shell 2) part out 3) ring All 3 have 1 thing in common, theiving scum bags

The difference here is that no one knows who is likely to of done this, unlike the recent case of banger racers stealing cortinas, even the banger community are admitting that it's members of their community doing it There's probably more of a chance of this escort being stolen to be rung and sold on with the use of dodgy ebay ringing kits than anything else tbh.

Hi, There is some comfort in that the Escorts are being stolen (albeit for profit) to be cherished or desired. The Cortinas,s are being stolen to be destroyed, which to me just seems mindless.

Colin Seriously do you really think there is? why not ask some of the poor sods who have had their cars nicked to be ringed or stripped for parts rather than raced & ask their opinion.

Hi, I'm not saying it's a good thing. In retrospect 'comfort' was the wrong word 'understandable' would be a better one. Colin

when my car got nicked, if id found the scrote who nicked it along with the car, whatever reason he gave me for nicking it there would be no understanding from me at all. I would fail to see any positivity comming from their activity.

That's my point exactly there is no justification for nicking a car be it for racing stripping ringing or just plain joy riding & I cannot imagine anyone that had a car stolen would see it any differently either.
