Places not to leave your skylines...

[Jetdat]

I just saw something like this in the NSW section, thought it might be a good idea for us Vics to make list of the spots you wanna avoid, post your personal expriences where you or someone you know had their skylines/cars stolen or damaged...this might help not only us Vics, but some of the interstate people whom of late have been coming to Vic for work or fun...this can also be searched later on if not made sticky and perhaps save people a lot of grief...

So here i go...some of the places i avoid like the clap are Chadstone s/c(especially coles car park, most of you know why), Monash Clayton where a mates turbo Datsun 510(which i had just rebuilt ) perished never to be seen again and another mates sr20 powered bluebird got broken into...

another hot spot is the Vic market which is notorious for car thefts, as well as crown car park although i must admit guilt for sometimes parking there for convinience... :Oops:

oh by the way i am not sure if this was done before, if so i will make it disappear.. :ufo:

Ok, from personal experience avoid

1. Taroonga station

2. Wilson car park on 300 LaTrobe.

Had my stereo stolen in both those places..... Still trying to rebuild now. *sigh*

Think its called Wilsons Parking, on Russel st in the CITY. Mate had his whole system stolen in there

[TMPTED]

maybe wilson has a few buddies he likes to call down to 'assist' with his carpark

Waverley Gardens (hole)

Anywhere you can't keep your eyes on it...

i try to never leave mine at the shops, i try to go to smaller shops so i can be within range for my pager to go off if the alarm is triggered...

Don't park it at any train station full stop - all cars get targetted there.

Is wilsons the car park on latrobe/russel street?!

If it is my window looks out onto the car park

I always see drug deals going on in the door ways, shitloads of needles everywhere in the alley and on the road

My mates R1 had 2 Needles sticking in his seat lol

Places i wouldnt want to park:

Craple street - Refused to drive their every saturday because of b'ball at the grammar, its chaos their - paid off aswell, mates car got backed into (hit n run)

Supermarket Carparks - old grannies and runaway shopping trolleys

[JAPCAB]

Chadstone shopping centre - a few r33's been jakked from here, some even during the day. Stay away.

Parkville/flemington/kensington - keep your car away from here, junkies will jack ur stereo in broad daylight

any thing within the vacinity of a commision flat complex is definately a no-no.

... anywhere near a trolley bay at Knox City Shopping Centre!!! :cuss:

[Ait]

You guys might wanna note that the thieves may be part of the skyline community too? Or that they peruse this website just like the cops

Friend's S15 got stolen in his secure key card apt in the city. Camera footage showed the car being driven away but till this day, nothing's been found.

[NickR33]

I shouldn't have read this thread... I'm all scared to leave my car now

[doxximus]

Brunswick street (f**king hippies/bums whatever) peace and love my ass... lets steal that dudes mobile and wallet and smash his window so we can get high tonight.

Crown Casino... shit security and don't want to know about it also.

[SKY031]

lets steal that dudes mobile and wallet.

If you're silly enough to leave your wallet and your phone in the car, then you need to accept part of the blame.

It's common sense not to leave valuables in plain sight.

He didnt say they were left in plain sight Some of these scum will just break in a take anything they can find.... easiest way in? smash the window..

[SKY031]

In plain sight or not, they aren't exactly the sort of things you should be leaving in your car.... regardless of where the car is parked.
