Wtf Is Going On!

[RubyRS4]

I just got an SMS from my friend (Grim's missus) telling me her GTR was missing from her driveway.

Car is down the end of the street, ignition lock busted and car undriveable.

Looks like thieving scum broke in, pushed the car to the end of the street to start it, and left it there when that failed.

She's waiting for the cops to turn up now ... shall we bank on 36 hours?

This epidemic is getting ridiculous.

Me and some of the boys are going to use another Skyline as a bait car and go fishing!

[RubyRS4]

Oh ...

And I was parked at Marion shops last night. Bought some items and went out to put them in my car. Found a whole bunch of youths (about 5) having a look thru the windows of the Stag.

I take no chances, so I pushed one of the little f**kers over and told them all to f**k off.

Young punks were smart mouthing me as they walked off trying to remain tough and all, so I started walking to them and they ran off. Real heroes they are!

I've got a club lock and an alarm in the Stag, but I might upgrade the alarm anyway to page me.

this is adelaide, 48 hours is more like it.

this is well and truly beyond a joke. either cops need to start actively preventing this or import owners are going to start taking it into their own hands.

Option B please. I could use the warm up.

Yer i think its lack of respect to... I had 2 young kids wouldnt have been 16 looking at my gtr... i was a few hundred metres away. thought nothing of it.. just slowly walked back to my car, until i saw one of the kids take out a screw driver. and it was a huge one! so i sprinted over there and scared them away before they did any thing.... But it just Pisses me off the fact they would have tried to badge the car but the size of the screw driver they had, all they would have done was scratch and gouge the paint and break the badge!

Hmmmmm i have a skyline sitting at the old ladies all locked up doing nothing waiting for the new owner..........hmmmmmm LOL

I know it's not the sort of thing a lot of people want to hear, but you folks who keep your Skylines on the street or driveway are frickin' crazy!

I had my first Skyline stolen after 4 months of beign parked on teh driveway, and 2 breakins during that time. After that, I swore I would never have another nice car unless it was gargaged every single night. This mean 3 years of patiently waiting before getting another one (as I couldn't garage it in that house) but that's better then the worry of leaving it outside every night and the heartache when someone violated my pride and joy.

Some people don't have a choice (limited car parking), but they do their best.

use to park mine where ever, but im so paranoid now, its always parked behind locked gates BEHIND another car. Even if it means waking family up at all sorts of hours to move their car, i will hardly ever leave mine in last, even with the gate behind it.

this is nene's car yeah that got broken into? Least she got it back, they didnt take it far..

Yep, Nene's car. She's pissed off big time. She hopes they die a slow and painful death. :laughing-smiley-014:

2 weeks before her wedding to. Last thing they need to do is spend more money!

Aw man this is just getting stupid as. Not looking forward to seeing our insurance premiums going up next year.

I'm paying too much as it is, I use to be with NRMA then when I got my R33 they didn't want to know me so now I dont have any of my bonus points I had built up and am paying a shit load more then I should have to.

[JulzR32]

yeh S.A is pretty bad for theiving b@stards... i just moved here n it looks like i may have 2 upgrade my alarm.. i dont trust the murray bridge area (hole... its where i em atm temporarily) a whole lot..

[m3gtr]

Im originally from Adelaide and i simply cannot believe the amount of thefts i have read about in this section.

Almost every other day, i read about "gtr stolen" this and "stag broken into" that.

What the f**k is happening in that city? I thought living conditions have improved in the past 4 years ive been away...?

Im scared to import the M3 im buying back to that shithole.

Sorry, no offense to those who are honest and upstanding...Im not speaking badly for you...its just the scum that breed there have raised my gall...

in the big scheme of things police do have alot on their plates, murders etc. not trying to get up anyone, but just something to think about, from their point of view a stolen car is a stolen car, regardless of if its a $500 corolla or $40k gtr, that, and they are pretty badly understaffed.

having said that, yes it does take ages for them to do something, but sometimes they are quick, they arent consistent, thats the problem.

anyway, i think the bait idea is awesome and could actually work, for small time crooks, but if your trying to fight a car theft syndicate like adelaide has been known to have then i really dont think its worth the risk of meeting someone in the dark with weapons they arent afraid to use.

Crime theft syndicate?????????????

...like adelaide has BEEN KNOWN to have?

wtf? :D

^^^ They seem to have plenty of time to defect cars. Specially cars that get defected for non defectable items. To me this is a big waste of time that could be used more efficiently. They are bloody hopeless and i hope they are reading this

[KISIN]

well guys it looks like it started again....every few months we get a huge wave of thefts, and i think a new 1 started recently.

LOCK EM' UP !

[gtrkiet]

shouldnt say what you going to do on here, keep it to yourself because i think they would be on sau too... =D
