Copied and pasted from my mates facebook.
"Autobrite direct have some bad news. From all of the agony of a death in the family last week we were awoke this morning by a phone call to say our unit has been broken into and stock has been stolen! Please share this post as we have ex amount of flex polishers, kranzle pressure washers and various chemical products oh and including a 53 plate fiat scudo van. The police have been informed and forensics are doing there job! Please fellow friends if you see or hear anything about these items been advertising cheaply please let me know or call the Staffordshire police for more information. At the end of the day our buisnesses and we are all under threat against these evil scum bags, but we do have to protect our selves and do the best we can to keep this from happening again and to anybody else either.
Of course now we have had all your orders over the Easter weekend and Thankyou, however we are now under serious pressure as stocks are low so if you can please bear with us regarding your orders. We appreciate all your co operation with this unfortunate situation and we will be up and running to 100% very soon.
Thankyou and share this post and hopefully these we can catch these scum bags!"

However, Autobrite do open their doors to a lot of people for training courses etc, and I don't know how rough the area they are in is.
Should probably up their security though that's fo' sho!
It is in stoke But i've been to the unit, and I'm sure there were pretty decent sized security gates at the entrance to the courtyard they share with other companies.

Meh. I'm pretty sure I won't be the only one to say something along those lines.
Security gates obviously didn't stop a van going missing!

The only thing that seemed a bit odd to me was that they mentoon a family member dying in the post - either they're quite unprofessional to an extent, or trying to conjure up a bit of sympathy/ trying to give people reasons not to ask questions.
Not that it's deffo fishy, just seemed weird

Why is this a big conspiracy?
Have people heard dodgy stories about them in the past or something?

Agree about death, first thing to mind.
Also wouldn't say "serious scum" it's theft.

Firstly I didn't point fingers, I got the jist rich meant something by his comment and asked, he raised a valid point and i then said maybe it wasn't the place for it... Thinking
a. Because maybe there really is a death
B. it could affect his standing in the detailing world if taken out of context
Secondly i don't really see what my brother dying in a cycling accident has to do with a detailing place being robbed/maybe pulling a fast one... However you will see i didn't mention the death or play the guessing game

Just to 'back up' John, he didn't or insinuate anything, he was referring to something I said, then removed as I decided against saying it on an open forum. (Although Liam has quoted part of what I said )

Serious scum murder and rape little children. They don't pinch a few tins of polish.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
