My skyline GTR Stolen!

[Turbo Piston]

Sorry to hear about your car being stolen, I read it in another forum. I'm in Oz, I will keep a look out, think people here are aware too.

I know this isn't the point, but was it insured?

[russwestwood]

Of course it was insured. If it wasnt, I could not have renewed my road tax, and drive it legally. I can claim insurance, of course, but no amount of money can ever replace what my car means to me. Im sorry if you cant relate. Its just how I feel and it will take a lot to to eventually have to let it go.

Yikes, sorry for your loss. It looks to e like it might have been an "ordered" car from pro thieves. I hate to say it, but if that is the case it was probably loaded on the ship or stripped with 24 hours.

Good luck with your search.

Organised crime, must be. If you are steeling a car, you don't pick on targets in locked parking unless you know what you are doing.

I'm gutted for you, I had a car stolen a decade ago and I would still kick the living sh*t out of the guy who did it if I ever met him.

It sounds for all the world like an inside job, get the police to check the staff as a regular con is to get someone a job in a garage or parking lot a few months before they do the stealing. Normally it is keys they go for in a garage or in the parking lot case the inside guy informs the thieves of when and where the good cars are and then just lets the thieves out. Normally the insider will move on within a few weeks to another job.

Its worth also checking out any other CCTV cameras around the area of the parking lot (shops etc.). There's only so many ways they could of gone and they had to drive past some cameras for sure. I'm willing to bet there is another car envolved too. Find details of that car and you're peerhaps one step closer to catching them.

If it were my car, I'd be walking into every business, shop and commercial establishment asking them if I could view their CCTV tapes. You have a pretty specific indication of when it was takien

Thank you all for your concern and advice.
I really appreciate all this input.

Just to keep you updated, I think I know the whereabouts of the car and am getting closer and closer to cracking the case. I cannot reveal anymore than this now as it may jeopardize things.

Rest assure that whatever the outcome, it will be posted here.

Thanks again & best of regards.

russ, might be best to keep it to yourself from now on untill you find your car. The people who took it might be reading this. Good luck mate.

[Cardiff R33]

only just seen this and gutted for you. Really hope your hard work pays off and you get it back, have just got my car back and am thinking what else i can do to secure my car

[Eikichi]

Any news?

[russwestwood]

Nah.. no more new leads, and all leads lead to a dead end.
Had enough of the wild goose chase and going thru with insurance claim.
Found another hobby and looking for a new ride. No intention of getting another GTR or Skyline, as it will bring back too many fond and sad memories.
But thanks for all the support.

it will probably end up in russia or saudi arabia and they will cut YOUR hands of if you catch them
