Default Stolen Evo-7, Sydney

Mother ****ers...
Some *******s just stole my brother's EVO 7, 4am in the ******* morning, alarm going off, I got up screaming "WHAT THE **** ARE YOU DOING"..

This one guy **** himself so bad, they whacked it into neutral and started pushing it by a nissan Pulsar hatch.

Stolen from Burwood, 40 metres from the ******* cop shop.

I swear, they were gone before we all went down stairs..

HOW ******* BRAZEN : : :

Cops have been out everywhere..... dirty ******* theives.
If anyone lives around BURWOOD NSW, please call me on 0422248035, YELLOW EVO 7, "EVOLUTION" ON THE BACK, was badged a few weeks ago.


Please call police immediately if you see anything OR ANY EVO 7. I will even pay a reward myself for any information relating to it's whereabouts.

not good news, does'nt pay to stand out these days.

No immobiliser?

See this is the exact time the BRANT immobiliser on the WRX, whilst sometimes annoying is worth it's weight in gold.

You can't ever replace a car with money.

Thats sucks bad man. Damn you would think a car like that would have better security. Just goes to show, if someone wants it, they'll get it one way or another.

Best of luck in finding it...

Hey Christina, sorry to hear about your brother's car.

Hope you get some good news about it, but yeah like the others said, unfortunantly I don't see it coming home.
I doubt the guys taking it picked it at random...

I do know a couple of the police from Burwood though, so I might be able to ask one if they have anything at all on it.

Hey guys, car had ****-loads of security.
What happened was, one guy got into the car without busting a window, they got the door open and the alarm started going off, I got up, and started screaming, one guy was in the evo driving it in NEUTRAL, one guy literally came out of nowhere in a pulsar hatch ram-raiding it.

Another guy was doing all the dirty work. This is the guy I saw.

Fully insured, 3 point immobolisers, microsensors, you name it, it had it.

I'm just so shocked for words, that these scumbags done this 40 metres from police station and court house.

We think the car is stored local ATM as it would stand out like dog's balls to be pushing a 50 000 dollar car by ramming it from behind.
They couldn't start it, so that's how they moved it.

The car is a Jap-Import, one of only about 100 made a year per model.

They would have been sussing this out for ages.
50K worth, it ain't getting knocked off for any joy-ride, anyone who knows Evos knows this.

I can tell that my brother is dead, he should get his pay out soon though....

The car had a shitload of security, they broke no windows, they got the door locks off and SOMEHOW smashed the steering lock.

It was all done while the car was in neutral, the next thing i see after this guy running when i start yelling is this pulsar coming out of nowhere and just ramming it as they took off.
My boyfriend was here at the time and said he'd only ever see this on american cop shows.
The seats are RECARO - easy 6000k.

I'd bet money that they had a flatbed truck round the corner. Sounds like a professional gang - car is long gone sorry.

I agree, they would have known they could'nt have started it so push it around the corner hook it up to a flat bed and cover it over and it's gone.

Scary to think isn't it that no matter how much high tech security you have, you can't combat against a flatbed truck.

Yeah, as rediculous as this analogy sounds there is 30k plus invested in this for the theives, so it is not out of the question to have a flat bed truck nearby for this type of theft.

Just think about it 4 blokes involved 7.5 k each, one theft per month not a bad income, especially if you have a direct avenue to offload parts......

A 10 sec WRX was stolen the other day from W.A aound 50k in mods. Fortunatley the parts are quite rare (read expensive!!) so will be hard to off load without a raised eyebrow from the WRX community.

A few years ago I saw a gear locker. It could be used for autos or manuals. It was a very neatly made unit from South Africa and fitted over your gear stick. Once in position and locked with a key it made it impossible to move out of Park or first gear, so that would rule out pushing your car away.

Haha. Burwoods full of trucks. Every street in the area has a truck capabale of this. Burwood Rd, Shaftsbury Rd, Belmore St, Railway Pde. There are more trucks in these streets than cars. Also, being so close to Burwood rd, there are heaps of shops with empty garages behind them.

Burwood, its a busy place.

FFS it will either be stored in Bankstown area and used in a string of robberies around Sydney, or it will be in a container on its way to the middle east. I'm sorry to say, you will never see that car again. If you want to try and look for it, drive around bankstown/georges hall or fairfield at night, look outside any kebab shops you find.

Sorry to hear about that I hope the car is recoverd soon. If it is only one of 100 then it may be easier to spot then a VT commie. Who knows maybe Over hauling are doing an Aussie verison. Highly unlikely.

Why do people have to swear to describe something. It makes it hard to read when the swear filter kicks in.
