White FTO on back of truck

[mark]

Spotted a white one with after market alloys on the back of a tow truck on the M50 the other day. Didn't look crashed.

It was probably mine. I found out it was recovered in ballyfermott the other day. It was nicked last Wed night/ Thurs morning.

ah jes, sorry man. What condition is it in

Not sure yet I'm collecting it later. I'l keep ya posted. But they hit the womans car across the road when they reversed out of the drive way. So there will definately be some. I'l just be surprised if that is all that is wrong. I'm just hoping I get bits and pieces I had in it back. My tools for a start. I'm lost without them I've a few nicksers to do and could do without having to replace them. About a grands worth in all with meters, drills etc.

Yeah I saw a silver BMW being towed as well. My dads car was nicked a few months ago and written off but most of his stuff was still left in it. The scumbags usually just want cash so fingers crossed for you that your tools will still be there.

They left my multimeter, 2 scewdrivers and a few dry-lining boxes, everything else was gone. I'm well pissed off I reckon the car might be a right off. There's damage to the back bumper and wings both sides, both alloys on passenger side are buckled, the bonet doesn't close properly didn't get a good look as it was dark, I'm guessing there is prob damage to the front as well.
The ignition is all ripped out, all the plastic covers are gone from the steering wheel, the steering seems to be affected aswell although that might be just because the buckles in the alloys. The DVD player was ripped out but the sub and amp were still in the back.
The insurance assesor will look at the damage tomorrow and see where we go from there. If I was to guess I think the repair costs woud be more than the value of the car.

Really sorry to hear that man, that really sucks. Hope things work out for you in the long run. Try and rise above it no matter how hard it is as things will work out.

Cheers man. It is sad to see her in that condition. I wouldn't mind but I thought it would be ok. The guy on the phone from the towing company said it was driveable, so I was expecting it to be in relitively good condition.
