as long as he didnt take delivery of it yet then the new owner will only have to wait a bit longer!

ps. atleast its on pallets, but probably so they could get the jacks out

If that was waiting for me to collect I would want a very big discout. You can never seem to get rid of ALL the broken glass inside a car from when a window is smashed. It gets absoluelty everywhere.

I think they'd tell you to do one and sell it the next person on the waiting list.

At least its only a window and set of wheels, not ideal but not the end of the world.

you can buy the rs wheels through ford dealers anyway, so they could be genuine.

shame about the wheels being nicked.

there were loads of wheel thefts on focus st's last year. someone managed to get some form of master key or something and loads of focus st owners had there wheels stolen and the car left on bricks. no need for the locking wheel nut key then.

best thing to do is invest in mcguard locking nuts.

funny thing is, theres a continental bag in the boot for the tyre puncture foam stuff as you don't get a spare, should've been in there, not the glove box.

My mate works in the bodyshop where it happened

It happened over night, the car was in getting the skirts sprayed as they had some scrathches from transportation.

It was Hi-Tech Bodyshop in Inverness., they smashed the windows to get the locking wheelnut key,

Ford have offered the guy new wheels (Obviously) But seen as replacement wheels aren't on the market yet there is a 6month waiting list for them.

Mate said there was police in today dealing with it.
