putting this up to raise some interest for a friend.

stolen BMW 530d m sport 2005, midnight blue

"Please let me know if you hear of any of the following items for sale - some are more noticable than others.

I had the car advertised on Pistonheads. Please learn from my mistake and trust no-one, even those who come accross as being genuine people.I was selling the car and basically i was scammed from a viewer, he strung out a very convincing story and i unfortunitly fell in it... He set up a decoy and drove off in the bloody car! I managed to grab hold of the door handle and skidded along the ice but then i caught grip and was dragged along the side of the car, the handle broke off and i rolled to a halt. A police car had randomly turned up about a minute later, we tried to chase but he was gone.

Electric guitar - Union Jack on its body made by Epiphone, it was in a black hard case.

Black iphone

white laptop - sony viao

2 tv screens for the back of the car

my wallet (brown with all my cards and driving license etc)

wii with 6 games, WW2 flight game, star wars,

brown leather brief case

yellow tool box with usual tools

old style ipod with around 4200 tunes of random music

Black book of music cds (around 60)

Why the f*ck was all that gear in the car.

If it genuinely was in the car, you would not do take it all on a test drive.

And the rare 50 ct Cartier ring in the glove-box.

That's unlucky the bloke got played but seriously f**king stupid to leave all that gear in the car, no wonder he just got in and drove some 'cause of some story' :-|
