No amazing news, except I'm being treated like the criminal by the assessor!

Word of advice, take pictures of every inch of your car as who knows if you too will be asked if windows actually were fitted to your car!!!

Also check to make sure that when you tell them what accessories are on your car when you itemise the stereo system and then give them the total dollar amount, they don't try to get out of it by saying "oh we thought it was the price of just the CD player, not the other parts too, so we changed sound system to just read CD player on accessories"

Also remember to ring them when you make an addition and they don't send you an update policy!!!

Keep an eye on the dodgy bastards, they're happy to take thousands of you each year, they just don't like working for it!

Good work getting it back man, and for my 2c I hope they pay you out too. If mine got stolen my biggest concern (being that it's insured) would be getting it back thrashed and having the insurance company try to give it back after a couple dodgy repair jobs. Much better to pick out a new one because a repaired thrashed car is NOT what you had prior to the theft, IMHO that's why we pay the exorbitant fees to insure it in the first place.

Yeah I'm going to amke my point with them next week...as

A) why does it take over a week to assess a car?

B) They've had over $4K out of me over the past couple of years, so they better start earning their money

C)Someone has been caught and they will recover cost from him, so I better start seeing some action!!!

Yeah you can unstick this Adrian, thanks

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
