Nothing stops a determined car theif, not even a car locked in gear mate. Your dreaming if you think that it couldnt be moved.

Put a gearlock on your fingers and stop spamming us!

Jez - what's happened to the moon!
Never seen so many pinched cars on here.
Is the gearlock guy making them all up so he can spam!

I see now - that dorks gone through and regurgitated all the stolen car threads so he can advertise.
Think it might have backfired.

Sorry , i was not trying to spam . I just know that having a gearlock makes it much harder for theives to steal a car and everyone that wants to keep their car should have one .

Ouch, thats gonna hurt - surprising I got an email from police comms about it, my neighbours L200 got nicked a few weeks back & we never saw an email!

I was road testing a customers car (early 90's black one) last friday and got pulled over by police 3 times in about 20mins checking to see if it was the one.

zephyrheaven, Dec 4, 1:33am
C6 is 05 so why would they mistake that old haggered 90's shape for one!

luke041, Dec 4, 12:21pm
I know that but cops didnt, it was on dealer plates which didnt help waited about 10mins for another cop to turn up the first time to tell the other cop it was an old one!

zephyrheaven, Dec 4, 3:17pm
ha ha, oh dear! I suspect the motor & box will be in a crate somewhere by now - the rest of the car is too one off (rhd) to be resaleable - maybe in Dubai

There was a guy in Melbourne who swiped the countries only Aston Martin DB5 and left it in his garage until he could figure out what he was going to do with it.

He got busted about 3 months later for driving like a 'tard outside his house in a Honda Accord and they found it still there.

Turns out you can't just change the details on the only one of its type in the country and stick it on e-bay.

OOPS sorry you're right.
Was in our local rag the other day.

I remember when the Chief of Police woke up to find his work issued Holden on blocks on the car pad outside his house. Lovely picture on the front page of the paper too.
Great day that was!

Quite. That's the sort of car you steal when the Dr has given you 6 weeks to live, the morphine's not really helping any more, and you'd rather go out taking the Homer tunnel at 200mph and straight over the drop-off at the bottom, than lie around for weeks in a hospice waiting for misery to happen.
