Heads Up

[Amaru]

With all the high profile car theft going on in ACT at the moment, just a heads up to people to note any suspicious activity around their car. Some people have been using tow trucks and just dragging cars onto them to never be seen again.

Only reason I bring this up is because over the weekend I have spotted a red commodore (VN/VP) and also a wine red R33 GTST driving up my street slowing down right out the front of my house and people looking up into the garage and driving off. Making me a tad uneasy and concerned.

i have noticed that a few times at my place nic a white vn ss commo stops and looks in. i think i a big factor is what is said on these forums as sometimes we give away alot of information.

same but they have to get past 2 other cars first

some commondore not sure what it was, was dark, and i didnt pay much attention then. (plus i have a couple of ppl who dont like me much.)

Im certainly aware of all the recent "tow away thefts". I know a couple of cars that have gone bump in the night! The sadest thing is that statistically they all end up in a thousand pieces in Sydney! Like all the hard work and hard earned money you spent is nothing to them!

Oh and if your saying that they wont break in to other cars just to get them out of the way then your mistaken! The last high profile car taken was parked in by two other cars!

[MIVEC]

How high profile are we talking here??

[race_snooze]

need a big dog to live in the car.

You have to realise some people slowing down for a look are enthusiasts, which can make it hard to discern between those taking a look and those scoping the car/security out. I had a Nissan Exa, white with big Nismo sticker up the side drive past my car in Woden a while ago, reverse and sit looking at the car for a few seconds before speeding off...heard on these forums they did the same to someone else. if you think someone looks suspicious, take down their rego and note the cars make/model/colour. You just can't be too careful these days.

Also make sure not to give out your rego numbers and address on these forums, you don't know who's reading it.

yea i agree its hard to to tell but i think i would rather be safe then sorry

mmmmm and while were on this topic has anyone got issue 29 of autosalon? well if you dont it has a big article on a guy in syd who was almost killed for his GTR33. a wrx rammed into the back of him and tricked him into getting out of his car to see what was going on. i wont ruin the rest of the story for you though so have a read as its actually pretty informative on car thieves

[Veilside R33]

yeah its the current issue, it was Damian Dupriez the ex editor of ASM, he's done a lot for the scene and its a really frightening and gripping story.

all i can say is god-bless the Brant Nemesis alarm system!!!!

[skyline_babe5]

This is horrible!! Be careful guys.. I have heard about the Evo 8 being stolen, also a few parts on cars apparently.. not cool either way, dont these people have better things to do!!

[tridentt150v]

The real cupprit here is our law enforcers, the cops do all the work getting these slimes, and then the courts let 'em go with a good behaviour bond. They plead it was a first time and they were desperate for funds etc etc.

They are back out on the street in no time. If it was tougher they'd all be locked away or it wouldn't be worth their while vs gaol time etc.

[Veilside R33]

but trident, they've had hard childhoods, their parents were divirced or their father's did'nt love them enough, or too much and they once saw their beloved pet cat get run over, how can you not show compassion to the little deev-o bastards? NOT THE SARCASM!

i agree with you completely! im so sick of the sons of bitches getting let off when they should be locked up, then beaten daily with oversized dildo's!
