sh!t, they got it while it was locked??????As much as I hate that to happen, those people are getting more and more skillful.

Don't want to raise false hopes mate, but you're very likely to find it soon, some kids took it for a spin and they'll bring it back.I certainly hope so, good luck once more.

I am sooking in the thread my mate put up as well.....I am going to drown soon!!

Keeping the guns loaded and the baseball bat polished in hope.

I hope you find it, AND GET A TRACKER ALARM INSTALLED

Glad you're keeping the spirit in this hard time. My place was robbed a while ago, 3 of my mates they didn't find their cars while parked in train station coming from work, life just goes on. I was happy I wasn't inside my place at that time, and as long as you're safe and unharmed, it's not too bad after all.
Now it may take some time before you assume you wouldn't find your car, give it few weeks from now, don't lose hope quickly.

Whenever you feel desperate, I can always tell you some sad stories about my life so you feel a bit better:)

And yeah, don't watch the V8superskaifes this weekend, might make things worse:)

Lost hope? Nah , I figured I would throw a $100 on Max Wilson this weekend as he is at odds of 100/1 and I reckon he can f-ing drive.

10000 would cover it. I would be happy enough.

But I bet i dont do it!! Need the cash now to get to work!

Sorry to hear about your loss. I've only had my car broken into, almost chucked a fit.

I hope you get it back in one piece.

Sorry to hear this BDave - I just hope it turns up again though this sounds a bit more like a Pro job than joyriders.
Good luck

That sucks mate. We'll all be keeping an eye out for it around the place
