Hi there, our beloved orange vw t25 campervan with a white stripe down the side and a cream roof and pop top was stolen at some point between 22:00 on Saturday 27/09/13 - 07:00 on 28/09/13 from Honor Oak Rd, opposite fairlawn school near the P4 bus stop.
Please get in touch if you have seen this van driving about, if you have spotted anything similar for sale, either as the whole van, or for spares. It's a turbo Diesel, left hand drive. The driver and passenger seats are beige and brown, brown door cards. The rest of the interior has a new white headliner, beige carpet on the walls, orange plaid full width rock and roll bed, rear seatbelts with two child seats called "Pampero Comfitrip" and a portable green electolux fridge.
If you happened to be coming home late on the evening of the 27th/early on the morning of the 28th and remember seeing it parked up it would also be useful to know as it could help us narrow down the time that it was taken.
We brought this van as a banger years ago and have been painstakingly restoring it, I can't put a price on the sentimental value, our family holidays will never be the same again, we can't believe it, we're gutted.

Don't know how many of these there are around but I saw one matching that description in Catford this morning around 9:00.

Oh no i've been admiring your van for ages as we have a T 25 too! I'm so sorry. Thought you had a wheel clamp on it? Will absolutely keep an eye out. I hope you find it. All the best

it did, I guess if you're determined enough, any anti theft device can be dealt with if you know what you're doing. I think the best way to protect your van would be to have a tracker fitted.

Heard the news via a friend of Facebook, word is getting around, just hope it leads to the recovery.
Sickening loss. Thumbdown

Yeah , I can't believe the response to be honest, it's really heartwarming to know that so many people out there seem to care enough to re-post. I still think someone in our community knows something. We're offering a £1000 reward for information which leads to the location of the van either whole or broken down, people can text anonymously on 07790903362

Trying every angle - still no word, someone must know something, remember people, there's £1000 for information which leads to the location of the van:
