My Gtr Stolen

[Thelen]

Really makes you wonder. We really dont have a fool proof system for protecting our cars

=[

Yea when I read this (was searching for what to look for, buying a R32 GTR next week I hope ) got me a little depressed that not only do I have to worry about buying a lemon or having to do a rebuild, but now have to worry about asshats stealing it to?!?!

I thought of the chaining to a poll as well, unfortunately it will probably give even more credence to someone trying to steal it

I think some sort of timelapse is probably the only thing that will provide enough details, certainly if you then get their faces or any other details. I'm pretty confident you wouldn't have to worry about a blanket going on the car while it is on the towtruck, at least until they catch on and start doing that as well

Ultimately, I think setting up some sort of mega loud "THIS CAR IS BEING STOLEN" alarm that will go off if/when you don't push a button every day or something. Should be plenty of places to hide it, then just stick the battery in a door or something they'll never think to check.

[blags]

Yeah and I up your warning level for breaching the same rules ...

Lol dictatorship much

[slinky-minky]

this might seem drastic but chain the wheels to something like a pylon. like, big f**k off big chains

Bike chain for a car???

Is this what you had in mind??? (See Below)

when's the last time you EVER saw a towy taking a car and thought 'WTF! GET HIS DETAILS!' Never.

I'm totally suss of any sort of tow truck with no signage....and anything without plates. When I started working for City Link I started looking at people's plates (have no idea why) and have just kept doing it.

did you see anyone suspicious around you that day in the shopping centre, im sure they would've hired a look out incase you decided to go back to your car.

[Panko]

Sorry to hear mate........... I feel your pain Don't give up with Skylines just yet.

Perhaps get a daily driver as well. Hope you get the car back in one piece.

Doesn't hurt to ask the other states if they have seen the car up for sale or find someone to suddenly have a MP R34.

MP R34 , is quite rare - most likely the car will be sold "as is", I don't imagine they would go to the trouble of changing the colour, but who knows.

I'm sure it's probably a crime gang, with someone specifically wanting a MP R34 (stolen to order).

This might sound harsh, but have yoAre you positively annoyed friend?e any new "friends"/acquaintance lately, say in the last 3 months, asking about your car, where you work or un-solicited offering to buy the car etc? Reason being if it were planned they would have wanted to know more about your car.

Also have a think back if anyone has been following you to work.

Good luck with it all.

Obviously this isn't a case of some people wanting a quick joyride.

What a low act I hope karma bites them in the ass.

[rondofj]

man thats so totally f**ked, sorry to hear man, hope u get it back in one piece soon, why dont they make laws here to SHOOT AND/OR INJURE BADLY ON THE SPOT any crook caught in the act or after the act. I would support that law 100%.

So guys, whats the best security now - GPS tracker?? how many of u have one?

[rondofj]

GPS trackers on ebay cost peanuts - around 100 bucks, I'm goin to get one asap, could be one of the best form of insurance???

thanks everyone.

i cant recall annoying anyone or anyone really asking questions about my car. a few people know where i work but my roster changes all the time so i dont know how they really knew i was working on sunday my guess is that it could of been anyone working at the shopping centre. eg. the trolley guys. but looks like it wont be found the police didnt sound very enthusiastic that they will find and same goes for my insurance company so looks like its time to begin searching for a car again.

yeah your right mate but there just isnt very many for sale at the moment and i cant wait for the few months of looking and then a few more months of gettng it on the roads here by importing it because thats just to long without a car.

[sneakey pete]

Go buy yourself a shitbox corolla while you wait then.

[KamikazeNinja34]

Lol like I said buy a safer more boring colour this time

[eightsixboy]

Man thats sucks, hope they burn in hell.

Heres you chance to buy a 32 gtr

[Downforce]

why would he downgrade from a r34 gtr to a r32

[PENGUYEN]

32 would be even easier to steal

[Ten Four]

Buy Marlin's R34.

Shit luck though, this is why I never park my R32 anywhere other than the garage, football training or uni (loads of parking officers) =/

Having a daily au falcon with hubcaps is awesome cause I don't have to drive the GTR everywhere!

How often do ur hubcaps get stolen though?
