last night, drove to a mates house for drinks parked it there a little bit away from house so wouldnt get touched, then went to city and partied it up... got back to my car, which was parked on side of road in a relatively quiet area. i left there after 12 so was pretty late and got back to my car at 4:30 and this is what i found!

Typical jealous funts. About 1 year ago I'd parked my car in Dandenong plaza. When I came back some prick had placed a nice dint in the rear passenger door. I hear it all the time. "Why would you spend money on a 20 year old car, plus it's a crap*y commodore." I'd say, "first of all mate it's not a cra*py commodore, it's a calais turbo and would of spent twice as much money on this than your clapped out cracker."
I think it just comes down to so many vl's are neglected which give VL's a bad rep.
I hardy drive the VL around any more as I afraid it will just get wrecked by some jealous pri*k.
Just a question wpn.747. Do you have personalized plates?

ohh yeah i looked around for the broken bit but couldnt see it! i was so angry... breaking something on someones car is the same as bottling someone from behind just weak

I don't think that was just broken for kick's.
It look's to me like they wanted the whole set, but once they realised the first one wasn't coming off clean, then they just bailed.

**** man, can understand ur frustration, but it's only a hubcap...
think of it this way..
they might have broken that one off accidentally trying to steal it, and cracked the ****s and scratched the broken piece over every panel on your car in frustration... now THAT would be worth having a whinge about...
Sucks ass man, have had my car broken into 3 times in 5 years.. unless it's in a garage 24/7, there's always gunna be some grub **** who thinks he's entitled to your **** if he can see it.
Hope u can find another one without too much ***in around and or $$...

23-11-09, 15:48 GMT+10#16 That is frustrating but thats nothing mate. Some c*nt tried to break into my vl 12 in the afternoon, dented the drivers door and keyed 4 panels. I took the car to the panel shop to get repaired and had my $2500 chrome wheels stolen! I was fuming!
