There's a whip round just started on the LR4x4.com forum that you can make any donation via paypal to help cover the difference between replacement cost and insurance payout.
Any amount is welcome and just put Mud Club in notes too so that they can pass on from where people donated

IMHO when it has been replaced - time to rasie money for/donate a tracker subscription I suspect. Who's good at talking to people like NavTrak?

Good idea, I'm sure given all the publicity this has had in Wales and the bbc story, a Marketing Director should see it as a good way to help a good cause and get some publicity.

Get EA51MUD to give them a call :wink:

Tracker are on a big publicity/ad thing right now, I'd give them a bell

I e-mailed the Brecon Beacons Cave Rescue Service to check it would be ok for us all to help donate towards replacement of thier Land Rover.
This is the reply I got this morning.
I'm the treasurer of West Brecon Cave Rescue Team and your kind offer of
helping us out with funds for a new Land Rover has been passed on to me. On
behalf of the team I would like to accept the offer. It really is an
extremely generous thing to do and restores our faith in human nature
following such a thoughtless and selfish theft.
The lead post on your fundraising thread suggests that we were uninsured.
That is not true. We are insured but just don't expect that any payout will
fully meet the actual costs. I'd really appreciate it if you could express
our thanks.
When you feel ready to pass some cash on, let me know and I'll send you some
contact details!

I think that their insurers are likely to replace the base vehicle, and not everything else, so donations are still required please.
Sat tracking etc is a good idea, but then this service relies on donations, and those that have any faith tend to think that no-one would stoop so low as to steal this vehicle. (bit like stealing an ambulance really).
What they can do will depend on the donations we all make, so please - whatever you can afford will be gratefully accepted.
I also sent a begging letter to Navtrak to see if they will donate a system FOC.
Will post up any developements.
Les. :)
