I am looking for information on a grey sahin car registration
48 HJ 481
that was removed without permission from its legal parking spot ( garage ) in Uzumlu & is now missing. The car was in the care of a friend who had to leave Turkey due to family ill health & she has only recently found out the car has gone. We have checked with Fethiye police / Maliye etc but the car has not been taken by them. I am the legal owner of the car & have all the paperwork. I am interested only in getting the car back not in the hows / whyfores of the removal so if anyone knows where this car is I would be grateful if you could pm me

So to summarise it's been nicked and you want it back.
I take it you have reported it to the police as it's not made clear in your post.

You shouldnt be talking to members like that stoop:D :-\
-
oops - corrected :-\

it has been moved without permission possibly by the person who was supposed to be keeping an eye on the property & car while my friend was away. She lost her husband who dealt with everything so she only knows his name no number ( Bayram )- I have checked with authorities but have not reported it as stolen yet as would prefer to get it back without all that as he did have keys. This has happened some time ago ( my friend was only made aware a few weeks ago as she was not able to come back to Turkey ) & then informed me. There seems to be an underlying "disagreement / feud" that has taken place but I am not interested in. I simply want my car back - without having top take any kind of criminal action if possible but I will go down that route if necessary. The car is currently NOT road legal
-
if you dont want to go to the police and report it stolen or get involved in what this fued was and why the car was taken, how can anybody help you?
-
Tinkerman - first I need to locate the car ie is it in a ditch , is it dumped in a field, has it been parked up somewhere ? I have only requested info on its location not on the circumstances ie has anyone seen it. I am not party to all the ins & outs of whatever the feud was & it does not concern me or the car. I will report the car as stolen but wanted to try to find it first.
-
Just a thought but do you have a picture of the car?
If you post it on here it might just jog someone's memory and might you might get a lead or two.
If you don't know how to post pictures just message me through my profile and I will let you have my email addy so that you can send it to me and I will post it for you.

The car registration suggest that it is not a foreign number plate thus indicating that it is in the name of a Turk. Maybe the registered owner has taken it, as legally it will be his.
-
Hate to say this but I think Loz is right, the car probably (legally) belongs to the Turk. All yabanci owned vehicles would have an MB/ME/MA plate.
If you live in Turkey would suggest you get the paperwork checked out. Possibly someone has been diddled.

The car belongs to me & my husband ( Turkish ) I have Turkish citizenship & have had for over 15 years so I can own a car, I can work etc ALL LEGALLY. We have the car documents which were given back to us to hold on to when our friend went back to UK so the car hasnt been sold on. The car stayed on her property with the keys as the gardener / maintenance guy was supposed to keep it ticking over - none of us was aware of any problem until a few weeks ago.My husband has checked with jarndarme , maliye etc it was my idea to ask on the forum just in case it was sitting abandoned in a field somewhere. If anyone has seen it please let me know ( I can even send a copy of the log book )
-
Have made a note of the registration and will look out for it whilst out and about. Hope you find it soon. The forum is usually very helpful in sorting stuff out. Good luck.
-
apologies for being so cynical Chris :) Just a suggestion but have you thought of putting posters in your own car? Driving around town lots of people Turks and foreigners will see it.
Hope it's spotted soon.
-
Check out your gardener, I would say!!
Gordy.

Unfortunately he isnt my gardener & my friend has no contact details for him & doesnt even know his surname ( her husband dealt with everything ) other than his first name Bayram ( not exactly uncommon ! ). But if anyone knows of a Bayram who does handyman / maintenance / gardening work in Uzumlu please let me know
-
[Hi Chris,
I know where the car is. It is located at the top of "Greenworld" in Uzumlu. I know the man who took the car, his name is "Bayram Yigit", known locally. He lives in a small white turkish house at the top of greenworld and that is where the car is. It has been there for a year or so. I don't know if he has sold it now, but it was definatly there.
Bayram speaks resonable english and will most probably deny everything.
Hope that helps

Thanks for the info will get my husband on the case.
