A few mates when around there and took all the stuff back and Talked to him politely

:, owner of the car was identified and charged. The scum walked away with $2o,ooo from the victom's of crime payout sceme.

Christ,, your mate must of done a good job on him to get 13 years, Also I know for a fact $20thou is the maximium pay out you can get through Victims of Crime. So that make me wonder how long did this bloke spend in hospital....

Who cares how long......

: The problem with that story is thieving mongrel got a heap of cash and a bloke who just wanted some justice (which lets be honest, isnt happening anywhere at all) is the one sitting in jail!!!!!
Go figure.....
Lesson to this people is possibly ... You dont beat the heck out of someone immediately after discovering it was them that stole your car or anything for that matter - -wait at least a few nights and make sure its done without witnesses and lights

Yea was lucky to get only that, he had been in his fair share of trouble in the past. Biggest wack was home invasion and the fact it was pre meditatded (Spelling). A driver at work had 2 harleys stolen at gunpoint a few years back and he got $25,ooo about a week before chrisse, max payout is $5o,ooo.

Well maybe the way you have heard is that.. but not from those that I have heard actually saying it

:

Ok I have to also correct you (I really was trying not to, but its got the better of me)...... the word should be *tales* not *tail's*
Sorry for being picky........ blame the lack of nicotine

Hmmm weather they are tellin the truth or lying you don't want them talking at all, it's normally the truth that get's most of us in trouble.

any news on the car yet ?

Bossxr8 · 08-02-2006, 08:33 PM

Car was found last night dumped in a paddock in Inverlee, a small town west of Geelong. Has been towed to police holding yard. Haven't seen it yet, not sure I really want to at this stage. Windows were smashed. A mechanical expert is checking the whole car over, and if its stuffed they will write it off. May take a few days. Not looking forward to seeing it.

LUXO_8 · 08-02-2006, 08:35 PM

do you know if much is missing? if nothings missing, i really wouldnt be wanting it back, would have been thrashed:(

wouldnt ever be the same again.

fiery · 08-02-2006, 08:37 PM

Dont go see it till you know if they are writing her off or not......
in one breath I would really like to say how fantastic it is that they found it, but now I know how hard it is going to be that they have......
if any of that actually makes sense.. which am hoping it does

Oh thats a horrible feeling. My mum's car was stolen several years ago, and even though it was only a $400 POS, when the cops said it had been found, and we should go and collect it (they didn't bother going over it) it was a awful feeling, just knowing someone else had been in it.

Hope it's not too badly raped.

347_XR8 · 08-02-2006, 08:38 PM

All the best, hope it all works out for ya

conordec · 08-02-2006, 08:44 PM

carnts.....

efgiar · 08-02-2006, 08:47 PM

smartlock isnt all that hard to get thru, the only thing would be to get into the car without braking the window. with smartlock u just get a key and barrel from the wreckers, take the old one off, plug the new one it and retrain it. takes an hour to do but still can be done.

efgiar · 08-02-2006, 09:01 PM

mate even if u dont want it back, if most of the stuff is there u can still sell parts off of it, i kno ull get a decent amount for the xr front and motor/trans and diff, bodykit aswell, theres alot of money to be made and put forth towards a new car

LUXO_8 · 08-02-2006, 09:25 PM

its insured josh, so he'll be getting a nice payout soon hopefully

I guess the good thing is they have found her in one peice and the low lifes havent torched it, but yeah it is going to be hard to look at your pride and joy after what those low lifes have down to it, mate I hope she is still in pretty good shape and not too much harm has been done, I really feel for you cause it is my worst nightmare to ever come out to the shopping centre carpark or even what you experinced and have it nicked from your own driveway, life just anit fair sometimes.

As a few of the guys have said, its great that its been found, but also, bad for probably knowing what the poor car has been through. Good luck with it all mate!

qwigybo · 09-02-2006, 05:41 AM

ah man that sucks ИИИИ.. good that they found it... also bad coz now there is a chance of no insurnace payout for a new one, maybe just sell it if they don't put it down as a write off. some people have no respect especially for nice looking vehicles

efgiar · 09-02-2006, 02:58 PM

yeah but u could buy it back from the insurer, and either rebuild it so its on the road, or sell it off.

Bossxr8 · 10-02-2006, 02:48 PM

Its probably going to get written off. Parts are missing off it and has been damaged. Waiting for the final decision from them.

fiery · 10-02-2006, 02:51 PM

That is a shame but I guess its also good because now you can get another beast and it wouldnt have been violated, if you know what I mean.
I really do feel for you though

XR8 Uterous · 10-02-2006, 03:36 PM

Sorry to hear about your car, I wouldnt be wanting it back after its been stolen then thrashed, i would be hoping for a write off...

biomechanic · 10-02-2006, 04:01 PM

Sorry to hear bud. Mine got stolen about 5 years ago, it's a horrible feeling to walk out in the morning and see your baby gone. Luckily I got mine back, but it was never the same
