i look at it this way. you can put the best security measures in your car to avoid theft, which yes may deter the "opportunity thief" or your "carpark thief" but if someone really wants your car they'll get it.. i think it was an old ford gto that got stolen from a warehouse over here in perth, they thieves moved porches and bentlys to get to it, put everything back and closed up. no one new untill the next morning and i dont think its ever been found, also a friend knows a guy who had 100k worth of motor bikes stolen from his garage, the bikies ( partly caught on tape) just cut through the garage door with a nine inch grinder.... and they have never been found... so if someone wants it, they'll get it. aww and then there was the case over here recently when a mustang got stolen from its owner, the thugs broke in, forced him to sign transfer papers and legally obtained the car off him, it was found through a tracking device, but im not sure if the owner got it back or not..

That's the most stupid thing I've heard, it's not the movies.

I agree you will never stop the thiefs,But we can make it harder for them.Remember this is our pride and joys we are talking about.How many of us spend shyte loads on a stereo system.And them spend bugger all on a alarm,I firmly believe on gps tracking and a geo fence conected to your cell and pc(for tracking or have a firm monitor for you.We had to for the insurance company.Well we put it in before they asked.It was wired in with the rebuild. Cheers Marty

what was a drug debt? the mustang?

I'd have a wire running tought accross the large garage door with current going through it. If the wire is broken the buzzer go's off beside your bed wakes you up and the ****ty hidden camera hooked up to a VHS that re tapes every 2 days would get the number plate. That set up would only cost under a grand. Ud ether catch them in The act if they drove off empty handed ud get there licence / faces.

Bump had this been found yet? Currently harlequin vlct for sale in NSW area

God I hope you find this. Could there be a killswith that locks of brakes on? That would make **** hard, even with a towtruck, its gonna be very very loud. Or just do the old MAD MAX approach and blow the ****er up ahhaha

Bump (I Know its been a while) However, was the car ever found? F*cking dogs who stole it.

Nope. He has a 2 door wrx now. And I thought a beige falcon was a downgrade!

It will most certainly never be found, whoever cleaned this thread might as well have just deleted the topic all together really...
