Dude - I went to the store, car not there. I asked the salesman, he said "its sold, I'm surprised it went so fast. Came in one day, sold the next".

Last I saw of the wee thing it was driving past my work, didn't notice a personalised plate on it though. Have you called them yet brad you slacker? They may not even know what's going on yet!


I rang Indy Cars the day after they bought it, and they told me in no uncertain terms I wasnt going to get the plate back unless I provided them with a replacement set of personalised plates. He also said if I involved the police I wouldnt see the plates again. Unfortunately, the cops still wont do anything.
Im going to the post office to see if the plates are registered to a vehicle, if not, I'll get them remade.

Man i wish i'd seen this post about a week ago, would of put a nice note on mr indy cars bright yellow lamborgini gallardo that was down here for the street race. then if that hadnt worked, i might of left a nice little key mark down the side. Bet the paint on those things is expensive.

Hope you get the plates back.

Ring 111 & report the plates stolen say u have a relaible witness thats seen them in chch at indy cars. Bang they get doen for recieving stolen property. & i think that also makes them inelligble to hold a car sales licence, there goes the business. That would really $&#$% them over.
im not vindictive honest :D
