Great news, really pleased that she's been found

But a dilemma now with the deposit on the new one, or will you have one each ?

Also a big mention must go to Marc for loaning out his R32 to Fee, top bloke

Glad to see you got the car back, being an aussie i'm a member on the skylines autraila forums and came accross this gps car tracker for less then $300 aud, you don't need a subsciption, all you need is a sim card and you can use google earth to enter the gps position and it's accurate up to 2 feet.. Seems well worth a look and other members have posted there results with there purchase. If you had this you could tell exactly where your car was, very cheap insurance. (I have nothing to do with the group buy on skylinesaustralia, just trying to point out a great device so if shit like this happens you can find your car in the time it takes to send a txt and jump onto google earth and punch in the longs/lats for gps position)

Info;

Real-time GPS GSM GPRS Tracker. It can be used for tracking vehicles, boats and any other movable targets. All you need to do is send a simple SMS with your password to the unit, and it will send its current location/coordinates to your mobile phone including its speed if it's on the move, you can then enter the GPS coordinates on online maps such as Google Maps, Google Earth, etc. to find out where it exactly is. In areas where there is no GPS signal, it will send you the location of the nearest GSM Network Switch Center Code and GSM Towers Code which you can also use to find its location. The unit can use any GSM sim card worldwide including prepaid sim cards (I recommend the Vodafone 365-day prepaid sim card since it will only cost you $20 and it's valid for the whole year), and all you have to pay is the cost of sending the SMS, no subscription needed, you are in complete control of it.

I was saddened to hear your time attack car had been taken, but glad to hear its been located in one piece now. I hope its all ok, and you get it back soon.

Best of luck in time attack too.

Howsie · 13th April 2008, 10:16 AM

That's a right result. Great news.

Police slagging seems to be a past time for some.

ahapartridge · 13th April 2008, 11:25 AM

Great news for you both, I thought the longer it went on the less chance you would have of seeing the car again so this is a fantastic result.

Alan · 13th April 2008, 11:50 AM
