Just in case anyone on here spots it, or is offered it for sale- my lovely van in pale blue and white, reg DKP 263K was stolen from outside my home in Walthamstow, London yesterday. It's got a really unusual pop top, and cream upholstered interior, there's some patches of primer on the white sections where I was working on some rust patches. I loved that van, and it looked after me. If you see it, please inform the police.

That's horrible - hope you're able to track it down

Good luck. What 'orrible c**ts.

My fathers friend owns campervan sales showrooms across southern UK, mainly Hampshire, but I'll pass it on.

[Amii]

This is awful. Best of luck tracking it down.

[ThomThomDrum]

That is shit!! Hope you find it and it is not damaged........

You should post a photo of it. That would help even more..........

Great idea. Upload photos to as many places as possible. I'm sure many VW owners & enthusiasts would recognise a unique (no matter how similar looking) van.

Even make a facebook page/twitter account & get people to add/retweet. You'll be surprised at the responses I've seen happen for lost cameras at festivals & on peoples travels!

It does indeed - lovely van. Really hope you get it back. I'd be gutted if ours was stolen.

I assume you've also posted this on the various VW forums??

I took the liberty of uploading here. Lovely van hope you get it back .

[Morse Code]

Make sure you post on as many forums as possible (owners clubs etc) as well as twitter and Facebook.
A friend of friend had a drift car stolen a couple of weeks ago after an event but it was recovered after a campaign on line so it does happen.

Lovely looking van btw - best of luck :-)

Oh man, that's a f**king beautiful machine. I'm crying for you.
Can't believe some dickless piece of shit f**ked with it. They should be f**king killed man. No trial, no jury, straight to execution

[crimes against pop]

I've posted on VW forums, Facebook and Twitter. Fingers crossed. Can't believe it- so upset about losing it.

[mirandamayhem]

Absolutely gutted for you.  Hopefully some forumite somewhere will know of it's whereabouts.  I would be gutted if someone stole my Fay.  She's a blue and white Brick. xxx

[Spindles]

She is beautiful.  Fingers crossed for you mate.

[Johnthebar]

That's a lovely van. Sorry to hear about your loss, there's some scummers about. I live in Walthamstow and will keep an eye out in the event that the bastards are driving it in the local area.

Was in the Village last night and am relatively local, so will spread the word.... you might want to check in with Westside motors in  Woodford as they specialize in VW campers, just in case it turns up there for any reason.
