my vl series 2 calais, midnight blue/dark blue watevr.. over silver was broken into around 2009 midyear in east keilor on buckley street behind the milleara mall. ppl from this area or familiar with ek will know where im talking about. the car was out 1 night from being garaged due to moving and that one night these maggot/dog/***/pr*ck sh*t-heads damaged my door to rmove the solex lock. they stole my brand new in the box polished intercooler autotechnica/monza brand. it had monza stamped on top of it and god knows whatelse they took from in it. there was no engine or trans in it at the time so im guessing these morons tried to take it only to find out it couldnt start. so suck sh*t dogs!!! they tried to jimmy my boot lock and wrecked it but couldnt get it open. they broke their plastic handle brown scissors doing it and even left half the scissors on the ground for me to find. if anyone has any information about this or even a monza brand new cooler they have seen someone come by or bought around this time i would like to know any leads. i know its a longshot x 1000 but u just never know.......someone may know the smallest thing that helps us all out. thanks CT members and readers because i know what its like when this sh*t happens....and so do some of you. cheers.

Wait...so it was broken into over 3 years ago??

just to clarify, the car had all its bits inside the cabin because of getting overhauled. 3ta ecu in there, 2 x k&n pod filters, sony cd player just sitting on the seat, etc etc, but they didnt take any of this stuff. all i can tell they took was this intercooler still in its cardboard box. the cooler still had plastic caps on the 3" outlet/inlet. ---------- Post added 27-08-12 at 17:01 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by Nukz [View Post] Wait...so it was broken into over 3 years ago?? yep, i never reported it cos i thought it would be pointless, but after reading the stolen forums here i believe we are a tightknit community when it comes to preventing our cars from being stolen/broken into from these dogs. as i said yeh it was 3 yrs ago but u just neva know if someone remembers something. i dont care about the cooler, i just want these dogs strung up.

it you didn't report it then it never happened

'Agrovl' sold it to me. he is a mate of mine and sold a fair few items on here.

'Agrovl' sold it to me. he is a mate of mine and sold a fair few items on here. This post confuses me. So your mate bought an intercooler off here which was the stolen intercooler and he then sold it back to you? Or the intercooler that was stolen 3 years was bought on CT by another member then sold to you which was then stolen? No one doesn't believe you, it is just rather strange posting about it 3 years after the fact with very few details. If the thieves left scissors / b&e items in there, why didn't you call the cops and get them to take them as evidence? Finger prints = possibility. I'm not being skeptical but this is a really random thread.

If u read the very first post on this thread it explains the situation clearly. if theres something u dont understand or not clear about then please PM me and i will will try to elaborate. i bought a cooler from a good mate of mine, who happens to be a CT member. it was then stolen before i got a chance to use it. never reported it to cops because as ive said they're useless. they cant even find stolen cars and they're huge compared to a cooler, was hoping someone from the area may know something....thats it. not asking opinions on what people think of the thread, or alternate options like what i could've done on ebay for $150 instead of writing this post. asking for genuine information, if u dont have any please dont add to this thread. PLEASE DO NOT REPLY OR ADD COMMENTS IF U DONT HAVE INFORMATION. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN OPINIONS OR USELESS COMMENTS. thank you. ---------- Post added 28-08-12 at 15:00 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by Epitaph [View Post] This is gonna cost you more than a $200 intercooler, I'm sending you an invoice for wasting my time with this thread. no worries, i'll just add it to the $18,000 of unpaid fines i already have.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say its probably on a car by now and probably has been for a very long time... Maybe you should start scoping out cars in shopping centre car parks, car meets and cruises.... if that doesn't work out maybe start a facebook group?
