Thread: Car Scrapped Withot Knowledge Please Help!!

Around 2 months ago, i was storing my car in a friends garden due to work being carried out on my garage. I have had various problems with his mother in the past, as she is an alcoholic, and on numerous occasions has forced her son (my friend) out of the house resulting in him staying here (i live 5 doors away). I found out that after an arguement with him, she rang up a private motor spares person ( a personal friend of hers) and got my vehicle scrapped without any documents, or permission from her son or me. The house is in both my friends and her names (shared mortgage), yet the piloce told me this is a civil matter between myself and her. I have now receive information telling me that should infact take further steps to recover monies owed to me because of this. I spend over £2,000 on the car and was planning to sell it to pay off personal debts, and use the remaining money to save towards moving out. I have only recently found out that she used a personal friend to scrap the car, an have only just found where the car was taken. The disposal unit where it was taken have told me that any expensive parts (£800 wheels, £500 seats etc) were NOT on the car when they received it. If anyone could give me some advice as to what i am able to do at this stage, i woul be very grateful. I have photo evidence of the vehicle before and after it was scrapped.

Many thanks

yes this is what i thought, i rang the police and the sai that they would send someone round, then i got a voicemail off them saying it was a civil matter. I tried to ring them back and the officer i needed to speak to was "unavailable", which i think has smoething to do with the fact that the police have had over 20 encounters with her in the past and know what she is like, i think they just did not want to have to go through the hell of dealing with her so fobbed me off with the civil matter excuse. Can i still go through with it now given the fact that police advice was the only reason it was not followed up directly after the incident? cheers
