My R33 Stolen Form Altona 10/12/13 Xzs332

[Cameron.ac]

Spoke to the police yesterday all they said is I'm not going to get my car back for a while, I'm just keen to get it back and rebuild it

[Tony Olsson]

How many bodies did they find in the boot not to give it back yet!?

I've had a car (pulsar n13) stolen a few years ago and then found by the police and was able to pick it up the next day where it was left gutted.

Some crappy new revenue raising scheme or something perhaps, but either way wtf!

[Cameron.ac]

Had a phone call from the police yesterday there waiting for a special police dog to come and go over the car

.... So they've had it for over a week and a half, charging you per day that they've had it... and they're still waiting on a sniffer dog to give it a going over...

I wouldn't pay a cent without a fight. Though you'll probably get defected for the missing interior bits if you try drive it out of their impound if you do

[Artic Choc]

That has to be the biggest load of sh*t ive ever heard. Mate I feel for you man. What kind of insurance coverage do you have maybe you can claim this "fee" the cops are charging you on it as well.. but like odium said. Dont pay it without a fight. Fingers cross for you bud

[Cameron.ac]

So got the car back to day. missing gearbox and tv, plus they cut holes in the dash

And they left me a hole lot of new skyline parts and fitted a lot of new parts for me

[bucket_boy101]

Pics of the condidtion?

[Tony Olsson]

Glad to hear you have it back What new parts had they left and installed for you?

[Cameron.ac]

$3500 later car is finally back on the road today. And the police has just charge the nice bloke that stole my car

[emts]

Did they give you a break down of the $3500?

[Cameron.ac]

Gearbox , heavy duty clutch, handbrake lever, ignition barrel & door key cut, exhaust, ecu loom , injector loom, machine flywheel, throttle body, Labour

[dan.1337]

Makes sense. Thought it was for the tow cost and time spent in the police lot.

Did you get any info on the guy? Was he a serial car thief?

[Cameron.ac]

The guy is known for taking skyline and painting them black he is from altona still waiting to get the police report and find out his name. Still a bit off work to do to the car have to replace the dash and both front seats some body work and the car has a bad miss after 4000 rpm

[Sunkist]

I don't think they'll give you his name, I'm actually surprised that they told you he was charged though..

[emts]

I would have thought for insurance reasons they would.

as in if you can give the thief details don't you no longer need to pay excess?

same as an accident if you can provide the details on the other party you no-longer pay excess?

I would expect that the insurance company would follow legal path to get details.

[Ben C34]

Was the car insured at all?

Can you PM me some details when you find out as I'm in Altona and this makes me nervous.

[Cameron.ac]
