Hi all thanks for all the help in posting my car up everywhere it is very much appreciated.
Unfortunately i got a call yesterday arvo a coupe was found at Jacobs Well cut into 3 pieces and burnt. I left work hoping it was not mine, unfortunately it was and in a terrible way. Still cant believe its true, it looked like a caucus left on an ants nest completely stripped,cut up and burnt. Please everyone keep an eye out for any parts going around as there will be many. AND A NOTE FOR THOSE LOW LIVES THAT TOOK IT AND DID WHAT THEY DID. WE ARE LOOKING FOR YOU AND WILL FIND YOU. |

I'd do the same to them as they did to your car (but paint stripping = evisceration in their case), that is, if it wasn't against the law... very disappointing news for you, and definitely upsetting to live with. It seemed like a possibility that this would ultimately happen among many other possibilities. One thing's for sure: they can't be too far away from where you live, since that's the only way they could've known about the car's location in the first place. I hope your sitiuation improves from here/you rat out the thieves/vandals.

Whoever perpetrated this act of great evil, let's hope their cojones are burned in the motor oil of the engine they stole.
People like this show no respect for anybody else, or their property.

Why would they cut it into 3!?!?!?
At least with a shell you can still do something with it, were they trying to spite you? Thats really raw, bunchof serial killers and insane car thiefs going round cutting up coupes! I feel your pain, hopefully you find them. |

Sorry about the loss. They could have left the shell alone at least. Makes me fear for the XY and Monaro.

Even though its illegal.....I still think there are crimes that are punishable by dragging behind a similar car to the one you just destroyed....driven by its owner! :

This wasn't some bunch of druggies, or petty crims. They knew what they wanted, and had the tools and knowledge to strip it clean. Really, if it had been motivated by jealousy, they would have torched it intact. Jaximus, I'm very sorry to hear what's happened. I cannot begin to imagine how gutted you must feel right now. Hopefully what goes around, comes around, and it comes back to bite them many, many times over.

Police recon this is common they cut it up so it would fit in a ute or similar as they wanted to be as inconspicuous as possible, smaller the better unfortunately.
They simply don't care its just all about their next fix to them. Hopefully their dealer gives them some that'll fix them right up. |

I cut up an XE today into pieces, i thought i could cut it into 3 and throw it on a 6X4, yeah right. I had 4 people and we still had to cut all 4 quarters off, the roof and cut the floor in half, to lift it, i've loaded the 6X4 5ft high and theres still another 6X4 load in the drive way. I'd have thought a coupe cut in three would draw attention. |
