Status VW break-in

That's a bad sign for the "scene". Obviously the stuff stolen only has value to a relatively small pool of VW enthusiasts, or an even smaller pool of split bug enthusiasts. It's not like they stole a truck load of tellies or laptops.
Is the vintage VW thing attracting thieves into it's midst or are there some enthusiasts that crazy to get the "good stuff" for thier project that they will resort to stealing it?

Its a bad sign alright, was at Bad Camberg the last time it was on and the tail lights of over 50 beetles were stolen from the car which were on display,What kind of arseholes are out there?
I know Justin,its just that people that are supposed to be into VWs are ripping off people that have worked hard and put along time into there cars or business,Its sad really
Careful lads, it could sound like Status VW is being badmouthed on here, and we dont want to come off that way.
Not from what i've read they aint. going from what's been written on other forums the posts here have been very supportive.
i guess its a bad time to remind them that they owe me money/parts,
sad news nice people working there

Ah I dont know. I suppose I just scanned through the thread rather than reading it properly. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.
