Stolen Coupe (Inky R300 EDS) Watford, Herts

Stolen Coupe (Inky R300 EDS) Watford, Herts - 17/01/2019 14:53

A very close friend has had his Inky Coupe go missing from outside his house in Watford Hertfordshire.

The registration if helpful is R300 EDS

It had no battery in it and a pretty annoying water leak meaning he only drove it a couple of hundred miles per year.

It was taken in broad daylight from a public parking area on a small residential estate.

Chassis # ZFA175000P0P48915

If anyone notices a sudden rush of Inky parts please get in touch or indeed is offered the car as a donor or project.

Many thanks

It's also been reported on the fiat /Alfa section on PH.
Someone mentioned it out of mot or road tax and asked could the council have removed it.

It was out of MOT (not tax) yes - but not on a grab list we could find out about with the council

John Snijder reported on the Dutch club's Facebook page that he too has had a coupe stolen in the last couple of days. I suspect someone is turning them into spares there too.

Someone on the Alfa forum had their GTV stolen (towed away) from High Barnet about a month ago, pretty close to Watford.

They have CCTV footage of it being towed by a white lorry (open back style Ford Transit) reg. "NA06 S R Y".

Sadly this kind of theft is quite common, if not towed then lifted onto the back of a low loader. Broad daylight too, as that kind of arrangement attract more attention at night time.

Hopefully it has been reported to the cops. I would be thinking any neighbours with CCTV and what ANPR cameras exist in the area for starters but MV theft along with theft from MV are not attended by some forces these days.


The other thing you can find from reporting it is if it has been seized by the council etc

Oh blimey!, that’s bad fellas. Sorry to hear about these thefts. I thought I’d inform you guys & girls that I had my number plates stolen either last night or today from my Coupe. I reckon it was done today to be honest as I reckon I’d have noticed it when I returned home from work last night.
