Default KW11CK 280zx found

Well amazingly my zed was found in a carpark in redfern, picked it up on friday. some stuff (fairly important stuff) missing from inside the car, the driver's lock and ignition are both stuffed (due to the crim obviously forcing them with a screwdriver), other than that it's safe, which is a relief since it wasn't insured.
guess all i learned in this was it's all about how you respond. i had given up on ever seeing the car again and i chose to forgive whoever it was that knicked it and just move on. so getting the car back was like a bonus. i hope that the other people in here (such as MR JUCY) can see their ride again also, coz it certainly is e to have things like this happen...

Matt

Maybe a little 3rd party fire and theft wouldn't go astray now. But I'm glad you got your pride and joy back- even though it's not a Ford it's still your possesion taken without permission and with parts you will never see again.

It's good to hear about a happy ending re. car thefts for once. Hopefully you can restore it back to its original state.

Locked garages are fantastic. Good to see you got it back. I'm in the last part of processing insurance for my XB. I won't stress as much now when I park somewhere but I'll still keep a close eye on it! Usually it stays in sight anyway.
