Hey all, i reciently bought back my legnum a couple of days ago, and monday night during the rain my Legnum and along with another 20 or so cars got broken into in newport in afew streets, stupidly i had left my Canon 5Dmk2 with Battery grip and a sigma 20mm 1.8 attached.

5593868128_9c5950c4dc_z.jpg

I have reported, fingerprinted and palmed out the 5D serial code to several pawn shops, madly watching Gumtree and Ebay, and hoping that out of the 20 cars there would be some evidence or a lead..

No insurance for the camera, and only 3rd party for the legnum, so ill have to find a nice and common off the shelf piece of glass >_>

Please if you hear of or see this 5d, it is great missed and is well needed..

Serial number is 212431402510

Slight scratch on the bottom left of the battery grip, and its strap is on.

Also had a Kingston 32gig CF card inside.

Call/message me on 0424505711 or hit me up here on JDMST or Facebook - Scott Mitchell.

Thank you!

Very sorry to hear! Newport surprises me as I work in the area, better keep a closer eye on my 34.

I work in a computer store, so in the off chance someone brings in a camera I'll check it out for you.

Best of luck with it all!

Same sort of thing happened to me in Mona Vale, someone went around to all the cars in the street including my 34 and broke into them.

They didnt end up getting into mine i think they say the alarm warning light on the dash so i was lucky, untill a couple months later when the house got robbed and they stole all my camera gear which included a Pentax DSLR and a bag full of lenses ect GRRR

I bet you it was fcuking Avcats or lame ass lad's. There has been heaps of break ins lately on the northern beaches. I'll keep my eye out on the photography forums and word of mouth locally. If i find them, be sure to know that they will be tied to a chair in my shed with electricity flowing through them until you arrive :)

Didn't realize there was so many northern beaches people on here!

Man this is so f**kt.. Not only did your car get f**ked up but a beautiful camera got taken in the process. The area is full of cocks and someone is bound to slip up with some info on the cameras whereabouts.

Do what your doing, keep your eyes peeled online and try and keep your ears out for any loud mouth dream boats. Any info and i'll be sure to pass it on. :thumbsup:

    • Wow ELVIS. You have an....interesting approach to conversation. Did you not notice that I wasn't talking to you?
    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
