TBee Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Came out after work in town to find my Skyline had the handle popped, dash cowling torn off, ignition barrel on the ground and wires flopping about. Fortunately it was still there but it certainly does f*ck me off that you can't have anything decent and not have to worry about it all the time. I usually borrow the missus' car when i know i have to leave it places but seriously does make you wonder about the scum out there. I really hope somebody other than the 5 0 catch the people out there who are doing this as they need to be taught a good old fashioned lesson......... Hopefully there's not more stories like this but with plenty of scumbags out there it wont be im sure Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139292-attempted-theft/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

chock Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Did you have an alarm installed? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139292-attempted-theft/#findComment-2595300 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluxe Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Damn dude sorry to hear, what time did it happen? and how did you get it home? Crap there really must be some complete D#$ks out there targeting Skylines, Thats it mine only leaving home when i'll be with it all the time! Might pay for everyone to keep an eye on sus people out the front of thier house in case they are finding out daily patterns. Oh and i've said it before, leave the Line locked up at home and drive something like this..........http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=137059 It might not be anywhere as good as driving the Line but hey, it only takes them once to take your car!

DC_GTST Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Fark....i know mine was stolen, currently with insurance assessor. Hope that these guys get caught as obviously someone has developed a way to easily get through the skylines door locks. Out of curiousity where was this abouts? as i know down here at Morphettville and Edwardstown they have been targeting all forms of imports in the last two weeks!

TBee Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 It was on the outskirts of town, got an immobiliser and alarm but really who pays too much attention when alarms go off these days. It's sad times when you cant even leave your car somewhere without stressing constantly. I'll be on the bus and once it's fixed will debate whether it's even worth all the hassles of keeping it. Hopefully can convince the old boy he needs another car in the stable!

Snotballs Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 just get like alarm/immob. Its the first thing i did after i got my car. i was at a mates place one night and there were 5 cars parked out the front, my 32 and 4 other average cars. all of them got broken into except mine, as they saw the flashy light and just didnt wanna risk it. so it pays to get an alarm and at least 2 immob installed. after reading all this theft stuff im thinkin of geting the removable steering wheel thingy.. just for exta extra security Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139292-attempted-theft/#findComment-2597897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
