was just reading about a Nissan gtr that was impounded in chch and then stolen from the yard and stripped.Then the owner found out it had happened through facebook.You would think it would have been safe.Thats just piss poor.To top it off they towed the stripped out car back to the same yard lol

agreed, with a 30grand car, mr hill should have had atleast a gps tracker installed to monitor his ride.
what he did to get his car in the impound is one thing, having it stolen out of a supposed secure yard is another. he shouldn't drive like a knob but then his car could have still ended up in the impound for less serious offence like parking in business car park when the business knocked off for the week but not aware the area is monitored regardless 24/7.

What does a 23 year old work at to afford a (supposed) $30k car!!

Could be any numbers of things. At that age I had a 14k car and thousands in savings. Some people own a home at that age.

Poor bugger, thats a collectible car too, hope someone has to answer dearly for this bit of bullshite and a bit of real effort put into finding his bits.

These cars have been at the stage where imo they are not even worth owning for about the last 10 years or so.You basically cant let the things out of your sight you cant park them anywere that you dont know the area you can trust mechanics to work on them and do the job right and the thing that really bugs me is they are not really a rare car at all.The production numbers for the r32 GTR are 50,000+ cars!
Dont get me wrong i love them and always wanted one but I really think they are just not worth the hassle these days.

Someone with lawful access to the vehicles in the 'secure' yard.

I only vaguely remember that one so I'm not sure.
But speaking of this sort of thing reminded me. what happened about the joyriding towies and the girl with the GPS tracker in her car in East Auckland!
Its happened before, usuallydue to inside infobut the towies accept no responsibilitytheysay all cars stored at owners risk .

That is awesome finally somebody strung up one of these dodgy ass wreckers.Everybody knows its them or their associates that are behind most of this stuff.Its catching them in the act thats difficult as they are all well practiced at it.

Heh. I commented and said "Serves you right for having a shit car".
Boy racers are annoying. Mainly because the cops have their sirens on ALL THE TIME around CHCH and it PISSES ME OFF. (I'm obviously not a townie. only recently moved back into town after dairy farming. ahhh. silence.)
