There are some inconsiderate tools out there who have no heart. Sorry to see such a nice looking EA end up like that. The people who did that should have the same done to them as what they did to the car. Good luck for the future

Man that stinks.
The degeneration of society is getting worse day after day
Can't comprehend what your feeling right now but I will say this
Make the most of this opportunity and try to find yourself a later model car, one that's way better than what you had

Although the loss of my first AU via a fox, wet road and big bank was nothing compared to your incident, it gave me the opportunity to find and purchase the XR VCT and it's way better than the modded forte

If the accident didn't occur, I would have had to shell out for new shocks, springs and aussie desert cooler radiator as it had spent lots of it's life on the highways and some very crappy speedway roads and copped some hits from kangaroo's
The insurance claim was a major drama, waited 8 weeks just for them to see the car

In some ways I see the accident as a blessing
1. I was not injured even with the broken seat
2. it happened 1 km from home
Best advice I can offer is once you get your new car, make sure your insurance covers fire and theft and you have a fixed value on it
Got 11 grand for the forte , the XR is fixed at 23,000

Best wishes for 06

Hey thanks for all the comments guys, Im coping petty well considering, just looking at it as you cant change the past.

The car got pinched from the station (Hazo) probably early in the morning, and they dont have camera's to my knowledge. Which i didn't think about as i would never have expected for it to happen up here, and yeah it was found around 3:30-4am two towns away.

Im working out what im going to do, as im doing up an EA ghia atm, except i lost a lot of parts that id put into this car while i was doing the job. So ill prob need to get another ghia with a blown motor or the like, just so its cheap, so i can get all the wiring looms and heaps of other stuff. But if i can that idea i wouldnt mind an EL ghia as ive always liked them, but that means id have to get a loan for that, so ill see what happens.

Not everyone believes in or recognises Christmas - it's only Christians that do. However, even those that do know what it's about and celebrate it don't always act Christian-like.

Sorry to hear about the car - you're not going to rebuild that though are you? Surely buying a second hand one would be cheaper?

That makes sense then. Good luck with the rebuild - looking at your sig, it should be quite a sleeper (I previously thought your sig was the one that got nicked).
