Car Vandals

[CaStLe]

Was just on the news a few minutes ago:

Around Adelaide and North Adelaide 2 guys have been on a rampage, vandalising late model Hyundai Excels. Juming on roofs and bonnets, slashing tyres, keying the paintwork, etc. They have done around 15 cars over the past couple of nights. Police recommended Excel owners dont leave their cars out on the street at night, and if possible to park them in garages.

I know this is a Skyline forum, but some of us may have second cars, or girlfriends or family who own an Excel.

Just though I would let you guys know.

Cant stand people who have to go and destroy someone elses property. You work hard, save your dollars, buy a toy and some dick comes along and breaks it.

Hope these idiots get a nice spell in jail, there will be plenty of smashing then, just wont be cars... hehehe

my bro has an excel ... them lancers with those lights and fake evo kits should be put back in their place ...

[Munro]

I agree, if they want an EVO why dont they go & buy a real one

(there are still 3 brand new 6.5s at Yorke Mitsi)if not, it's a bit lame trying to make the base model look like the race one.

It's a bit different with the GTSt vs GTR thing 'cause a GTSt is a tough car in the first place.The standard lancer is far from tough -

it's a front drive, atmo 2litre.What more can I say!

[hippy]

yeah thats for sure ... my friend has an evo4 ... them lancers sound nothing like it ... its a very mean sound ... maybe even better than a gtst ...

i agree, vandalising peoples cars is ****ed up; i know, its been done to me....

Even it is an Excel, it's still someone's pride n joy which they payed good money for. I dunno why you'd want to personally, but they obviously appeal to some people

[whatsisname]

The Excel appeals to me due to its bloody awesome fuel economy!

Wife & I had a '97 GX 3dr that we clocked up 120k on it (daily hack- many trips all about OZ!) The only thing we had to replace - a couple of blown headlight bulbs @ that was it! I gave that thing hell too!

Sydney - Adelaide = ~$100 fuel

Someones pride & joy, daily hack or whatever damaging someone else property is NOT ON
