Ill keep a look out for; looks like a good piece of kit and it looks pretty distinctive as an EA with those mags and bodycoloured door handles.
Hope you find it in one piece, soon.

That is terrible DA S. I will keep an eye out for it. I live not far from Parramatta and if I see I will for sure PM you.
One of the guys at work had his VERY PLAIN XD green Falcon stolen DURING the day in the street down from where we work. These little buggers need some bamboo under the fingernails and then matches and......... fill in the rest |

thats no good to hear Joe,
I will keep an eye out for it out Campbelltown way. The only place I can think of nearby Bankstown where it could be dumped(im not a local tho) would be Bankstown airport service roads or in the carparks near the river. I get the feeling tho it coulda been driven out west |

Thanks guys for your support. Yes unfortantely pre-smartlock cars arent hard to steal. I am fully insured, but the car has been good to me all these years, just hate to lose such a great car.
Yeas a lot of my buddies have told me my car is very distinctive, it was lowered, very dark tint, colour coded EF door handles and paint was very very shiny. No doubt if i ever do get the car back it wont be the same again, a**holes probably thrashed it for sure... makes me wanna go pop these c*nts off! |

Grab a couple of mates and go for a cruise around some of the more dodgy area's like ArgonEF has suggested. It may turn something up, hopefully you'll get it back.
Go talk to tow-truck drivers or your local police station as to where most cars are dumped, you might get lucky. If you do find it, don't touch it. Call the police and notify them that you've found it, and ask them to come down and do it over for fingerprints etc. You might not get your car back that day, but atleast they'll have whatever prints they find on record. Good luck

I had a car stolen, was recovered quickly but the cops refused to fingerprint it, even though there were fingerprints which I knew weren't mine on the rear view mirror. The cops said, "If it was a house, but for a car...." After that, the cops came to my house, and I had to PROVE to them that my car had been stolen, as the f%^&*kers who took it, ran through multiple red lights. Thay even had a pic of the w$%nker who took the car. Think they followed up on that? Hear it's still fairly hot in hell at the mo |

Sorry to hear. There are too many inconsiderate tools out there who steal cars without thinking of how the owner would feel about it. It is a nice tidy looking car so I seriously hope you get it back in one piece. Good luck in the search.

Yeah cops didnt fingerprint a mates car when the interior was set fire to, well it didnt really burn, it just smouldered since the all the doors and windows were shut, starving the fire of oxygen.
If it did go up in flames it would have taken out a block of flats with it since it was parked underneath. The cops didnt really care.
