My 86 has been found!!!
It was parked up in a residential cul-de-sac 7 miles from my house!!!
It was called in by a member of the public! Facebook ftw!!
I am not allowed to see it until forensics have finished with it.
I have just delivered the other key to the recovery company that is holding it.
The police tell me there are 'no visible signs of damage'.
I reserve judgement on that as their assessment of what constitutes damage may be different from mine.
The spare key is still out there so IF i accept it back I shall have to get the locks reprogrammed and a new key issued.
But I am experiencing a little relief!
It'll be up for insurance renewal at the end of the month.
I will be changing insurers, I'm sure.
Yep it is a bit shitty...there was obviously a reason this insurer was far cheaper than the rest.
Yes I was insured for theft, but how many thefts are recovered? Not many. I can't say i blame them for wanting to record it if they pay out. yes I think it's a bit shitty but rather take the 2k hit now than a >2k hit if/when I come to sell, assuming I can sell.
