Plodder -> Some B*ard stole me car!! (12/5/2011 12:18:23 AM)
Woke up this morning, had breakfast, walked outside and Hello! our 1992 Ford Laser is gone. Rang the police and apparently our make of car is getting targetted at the moment. What makes it worse is that we had two car seats fitted for our 1 & 2 year olds plus the double pram in the boot. Oh, and no insurance as we'd let it lapse. B@$+ard low-lifes...[:@] [:@]

Wow, where does a car like that go in NZ?[&:]

Whats the fine for driving with no insurance there?Why let it lapse?

Plodder -> RE: Some B*ard stole me car!! (12/5/2011 2:55:24 AM)
Insurance isn't compulsory here, so no fine. We let it lapse because the premium went up while the car value went down so it wasn't really worth it. What we're really peeved about is the car seats and the pram, that's a grand right there.Should have had contents insurance but we were shopping around before this happened..

In the US, most home owners insurance would probably cover the contents of your car, so check with you homeowner ins agent. rick

Look on the bright side. At least the 1 and 2 year old were not in the car seats at the time of the theft :D

I really hate people that have no compassion for their fellow man. A person can work very hard for a car like yours and then they just feel like they can come along and take it. Work for your own stuff, you damnable thieves!!!

So, who the heck steals a car in NZ? It's not like they've got a million/kilometers of road to rampage across, "Road Warrior" style. Is it "addicts" or what?

Plodder -> RE: Some B*ard stole me car!! (12/6/2011 9:36:06 AM)
You'd be surprised, A lot a cars are stolen for parts but quite a few are stolen by joy-riders. We have roughly the same land area as the UK but only a population of 4 million (with half of that living in the Auckland area alone) so there is plenty of open roads and places to hide.

Sorry to hear about your car! Also: quote: ORIGINAL: H Gilmer I really hate people that have no compassion for their fellow man. A person can work very hard for a car like yours and then they just feel like they can come along and take it. Work for your own stuff, you damnable thieves!!!

Obsolete -> RE: Some B*ard stole me car!! (12/7/2011 2:20:56 AM)
Well I learned something new. Over here, it is a CRIME to use a car without insurance. I had assumed that was the norm everywhere.

Gilmer -> RE: Some B*ard stole me car!! (12/7/2011 2:31:12 AM)
Can I ask you Obsolete, about your sig. Is that from a game, or is it a artistic sig that you created?
