The word must be getting around.

Owner is a friend of a relative, and there is a turbo EJ in that car. Looks like the thieves were apprehended which is always a good thing.

...and my mates wonder why I am paranoid about where I park my RS!!

Not meaning to hijack the thread, but my head unit turned up at a local second hand dealer (a well known second hand dealer)

But imagine this, ID used to sell it to them was also stolen...feel really sorry for the business...about as much as the Police did.

Karma!

Those inner door locks are useless on those Subie's without a door frame. Just need a long rod and your in. Then is pretty easy to hot wire, but steering lock is trickier.
I reckon its time for everyone to think about 10,000 volt shock on the door handles. Better then an alarm no one even bothers to notice.
