Sorry to here this, it has been known for trucks to be nicked and used for various purposes. We borrowed a cargo onec and didn't know it had been used till we returned it and the owner noticed the stabilsing legs had been put down and not put all the way back up, also the hiab wasn't in the same place. The wierd thing was it was locked up and in apparently the same place. I hope you get your truck back.

Yes m8 it is or was, I had it off him a few months back now, the signwriting was painted on hece why i never removed it, so at least it won't be a 5 minute job to get rid of it, plus as you know the colour is a very distinctive one off, i'm waiting for him to email me some pics through so i can get them up.

Thats what I would of put my money on mate, But i know a few people who know and or do business with the guys down there and both have had a word and been down to the site today and had a good nose round and its deffo not there and the guys down there have told them it was'nt them, so i don't know. They did say though that there was another gypsy site now aswell on the other side of the docks but no-one knows anyone down there so I'm stumped :(

I also gave the scrap metal merchants a call with the details, they should recognise it as thats where I take my scrap cars to weigh in, so fingers crossed it will be some dull fook who had it and thinks he can just start collecting scrap and get busted, Just hope to god i get a call from them to say theres a man in your truck dropping off a car, I am far from a nasty/violent person I got my life you got yours, both crack onlike, but when someone steps into my business it aint on :x but there will be blue murder if i get my hands on the scum and i'll do the time for it :evil: :evil:

Ok, very distinctive, I can't see why they would want to nic one as distinctive as that but like you say, some people? anyway there shure aint another painted like it and that makes it very noticable. I will keep my eyes peeled I would recoginse it in an instant.
