Hey 8a8y8,
where is it that you parked. Just to warn your fellow sydney sider rx8s!

Again, i feel for you.

Maybe all us rx8 boys could even come down and catch the guy in the act. Get a little RX8 Crew on him.

Phil,

It's all been said!

If you do turn up any security video, make sure the insurance investigators know about it. Unfortunately the cop's probably won't see as an important event.

I spent a long stint in the hospitality industry in Aus and can offer a few more "arms and legs" for facial adjustment....but there seems to be no shortage of offers there!!

Mike

What on earth... that guy is insane!

Some people just probably think he scratches the car will do no more harm . You should get police involve there !

You tempted someone whose IQ probably doesn't register on most measurement scales. It goes against my better judgement to say this -- I agree with all the earlier comments about not letting it get to you -- but there's a voice in my head saying "park there again, stake the place out, and apply the Hymee 4B2 ... oops, call the police".

I can't believe I just wrote that

PPPPPPPHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL LLLLl

Come on man.. you should of been there..

Go to the police.. The cops are worse than the person who probably did this in the sence of envy... They will see a young guy with a hot car and they will treat him like ****.

I have been through this before.. They did not want to know that my car got stolen. I had to fill a report but it took me three coppers by the time someone actually gave me a form and the SPECIAL number to call.

Regards
Phillip

Has anyone got an electrical background, how hard would it be to wire up the 8 to a mains outlet?

That way the tool would be tried & fried the next time he messed with your ride.

That's terrible, such malicious damage should surely get a jail sentence. The security video fottage ( if there is any) should be interesting, if not to catch the perpetrator in action, to at least identify the person whoc was at the scene on both occasions.

Unfortunately the police don't really care, steal a candy bar from a service sation and it's a different story though!

Are you trying to inflame people here?

Not a good way to celebrate your second post.
