Spotted at Mildenhall banger track, freshly stripped and SUSPICIOUSLY immaculate rust free 4 door Metallic blue Square headlamp B310. Anyone heard of one going missing up that way recently?
i;m not saying its a stolen car, but having seen stolen cars at tracks before (too late to save them ) i'm certainly not the only person thinking hmmm, if you found a car that mint you wouldn't smash it up as that 5 minutes of fun could have just cost you £1500.
Better to mention the car has been spotted there than just assume everything is legit. It could have been taken this morning and stripped out and the owner doesn't even know its gone!

I wondered if it might have been this one which is from the East Anglia area but it's a pre-facelift

pics texted to me not stolen that i know of but we might not ever find out if it was, and the person who raced it may not have known anyway. Most banger racers are alright sorts of peeps, just a few rotten apples give the sport a bad name.

I think the guy who found it might have got good money for it if they'd sold it on as a road car as it seams it was in very good condition. And thats why it got noticed at the track.
Obviously we don't know the situation. It could have had a distruction notice on it? scrapage scheme etc? same as the green 120Y that was on top gear is going/gone racing.
