this really sux.... my old N/A VL was broken into 11 times... yes ELEVEN! over a course of 5 years... luckily a $15 kill switch into the computer saved it each time... normally the bonnet was up because they thought the dizzy cables were taken off (the car turns over, but nothing happens).... the side effects of the break-ins included broken key holes, broken windows, stolen tapes (haha what losers), bent steering wheel, ripped off back seat...umm ignition scratched.... these people really need to get a brain - one time my car was broken into and the locks were smashed on a friday night, so i didnt bother locking the car on saturday, and then that night someone smashed the back window to get in? yeah i guess breaking glass is more logical than just opening the door... anyways, luckily now i dont have to park at the station or uni or anywhere like that all day so the last 2 years there hasnt been any break ins anywho it would be good to use some of this ballooning revenue from speed cameras used to rid society of some of these people.. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I thought St.Albans, Scumshine, Dandenong, etc... where the trouble spots??? Anyway, I've had my car for over 3 years now... and as my car stands out & most people know my car, not once have I had a problem; touch wood... But thanks for the info dude... I will keep an extra eye out now. Cheers Mick Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
