Yeah. It's getting ridiculous now. So much theft going on.

One dodgy neighbour is all it takes.

A mate in Carnegie had his car broken into recently...for the second time...the thief only stole the remote gate opener. Obviously so they can come back for the car or more break ins.

There's no way I wouldn't insure a car in one of these carparks.

Yeah apartments just not safe these days either, cameras pretty easy to get by just covering up

My car is like 1 meter behind where my head is when sleeping and bike is about 4 meters all locked up so hopefully I'd hear if anything dodgey going on.. still insured doe. If not home could just walk in with bolt cutters snap bike steering lock off / pick up front wheel onto a trolley and wheel it out.

Do peeps selling skylines just leave them at the station now to get payouts?

I've seen stolen bikes in apartment complex's bolted to the ground with one of those 'unbreakable' chains - grinder marks on the floor and it was gone lol.

he had alarm imob and such.

so guessing they broke the steering lock and as the parks are upstairs put in neutral and rolled it down to the ground and on a truck.

ballsy move as he basically lives opposite the st kilda rd police station.

Problem is no one but the owner and people who know it's the owner's car would stop them...if anyone even dared to ask what they were up to they'd just say towing it to be repaired and no one would question it.

If only the scumbags put their brains into something honest.

at current interest rates, a $100 a day junkie could afford to pay the interest on an $850k mortgage....

think about that

I'm entirely OK if my car got stolen or written off, which means it is the most secure car in the universe.

So much so, some people broke into my Camry (why, I don't know), and flattened the battery (again, really not sure how.. it starts) and left my wallet on the passenger seat where I had accidentally left it because... I'm lucky?

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
