from Marks www.C5alive.co.uk site ;
"Last night my garage was broken into and 4 C5's were stolen.
Please will anyone let me know if they come across thse C5's. Sadly and stupidly I do not have a record of the serial numbers but a couple of them had "distinctive marks" on them
One was a C5 that I only used for hire. It was quite tatty but ran perfect and it had "on hire from C5Alive" etched into the rear light.
One had a bright green painted chassis and the body had a very distinctive scratch on the front nose that looked like a griffen from the Vauxhall badges ! . ( I have however previously sold another C5 that had a green chassis )
The other two - one was a C5 complete but with no electrics fitted ( This one was going to be donated to a Museum ) and the other was again complete and worked but did not really have any features other than the fact it was a 24v C5, but there are so many 24v'ers out there now that you would never tell it was ths one !!
I doubt that I will find them, but you never know.
If anyone out there comes across such a C5 please just let me know.
I feel really upset to have lost these C5's, the thieves managed to break into my garage which was very well secured, without anyone even hearing a thing. What makes it worse is that I have an alarm to fit into the garage which I was planning to fit asap. I will be doing that today. Its so annoying as I have spent a fortune on CCTV to protect the C5's locked up in my garden as I thought they were the vunerable ones - The thieves even had to lift the C5's OVER Marias Astra GSI to get them out !!!!
I am shell shocked and still shaking.
Meanwhile, if anyone out there has a few cheap C5's for sale, let me know, as I got a bit of "re-stocking" to do !!!
Mark"

I know I'm in my own world - it's OK, they know me here.
Thanks for your concern qdos, but fortunately for me ChrisB is right - it was Marks place in High Wycombe that got turned over
He doesnt hold out much hope of recovering them, he didn't have a record of the chassis numbers etc.
Crying shame, always seems to be the nice people that get a raw deal in life
