Stolen touring wagon:( PLZ Help find it...

Post by guyph_01 » Sun Sep 19, 2010 2:13 am

EDIT: (was a prank, car is not actually stolen. the drunk owner left the keys on the ignition and one of our mates saw this and went to hide the car and made us believe it was stolen)


Don't worry its not my Grey Wagon. Its my mates, well was my mates!

It a
White Touring wagon with some blue decals on it
Stock EA82 MPFI
Grey roof racks
14" rims
2" lift kit
Exhaust tip
Chrome wheel centre peice
Front replacement bullbar
Dark tint
Front spotties (one with a broken lense)

Everything else is stock on it. Has a piece of blue carpet covering around the gear and 4wd gear shifter and very damaged top door trims, some with blue tape or stickers to cover the damage. What else? has a 5th spare 14inch wheel in the boot.

I'm not sure yet how exactly it got stolen, but it was only this morning.

Dam i can't belive this happened. I really need to get an alarm on my car.
Hopefully it won't end up burnt at the pines etc.

Thats a shame,I hope it turns up intact. Alarms are good at home but by my experiences tend to go unnoticed by the general public as so many go off for various reasons other than theft. Id recommend making their job harder, interrupt your fuel pump negative with a hidden switch, or ignition with a carby car.

Nah, just an immobiliser but if you've owned the car since before the laws came in it's not needed until you sell the car, we only have a wrc if the car is stickered/defected or the rego is more than 3 months out of date.:-D

Shit mate! SO thought this was yours when I read the heading!!

Glad its not, but also not happy that this has happened! Did it have an immoiliser?

I've got one installed on my subi and I'm pretty sure the only way to flog it is with my car keys. I live in queensland by the way.

That's a good looking subi too. I'd love a touring wagon to set up for 4wd'n - engineered and all!

All the best with your search, if I see it up here in qld I'll let you know ;)

Cheers

Hi guys,

Turns out it was a prank! the owner got completely drunk and let the keys on the ignition. Luckly a mate of ours saw it and decided to play a prank. he took it and hide it a one of his mates place. We all had no idea and were completely stressed:(

But yeah turns out it was a prank to teach my mate a lesson.
Duhhhh!!!!

If a mate ever dd that to me (which would never happen as I'd never leave my keys in my car) I would kill him/her. That is the worst prank/joke you could play on someone that treasures their car :(

So were the cops involved? That is a very dodgy prank to play - so much to go wrong! charges could still be laid for wasting cops time...

Need to do it so its a little more controlled than that - at least move it to the other side of the carpark, mount the curb and park it really poorly or something like that! Or just take the car keys and make him sweat...

I'd also be along the line of what RSR said.

Cheers

I would very pissed.

Police have a hard enough time with being distracted by idiots. I say this with a bit of hypersensitivity as the Police did try to catch the thieves that stole my car.

Yeah i would be pissed too. No police were involved. He somehow got them to wait untill he brought back the car. So its all good. But yeah, i guess he wanted to teach my mate that you should not forget the keys in the car in the middle of Bentley!

Its easily could have been stolen for real!
