      Re: Prado Stolen

      Hi All,

      Just update on this. Below is a photo of our new Prado, Crystal Pearl (white to some) VX turbo disel (exactle what we had before). Probably the last one on the market in Australia. Picked it up this morning. The insurance company have come good and will pay out the old lease. The police have arrested and charged a 17yo for the theft and destruction of our vehicle. The moral of this story is even if your car is locked in a "secure" garage - dont leave your keys in it! You would be surprised the number of people I have spoken to in the last couple of weeks that do exactly this - police officers included!



      Its off to ARB in the next week or so to have some bits bolted to it in an attempt to ditch the shopping trolley look.

      Thanks to everyone that has offered help and support to Linda and myself both privately and publicly over the last couple of weeks.

      Cheers
      Lindsay

        Glad to see you back on the road with another Prado. Its reassuring to hear that the insurance company was helpful and the offender was arrested by the police. Look forward to seeing your new build up thread.

              I'm glad to see they caught the filthy vermin - although these days probably the most they will get is a slap on the wrist. Bring back capital punishment :lol:

                    Glad you got a new one guys, I hope you get just as much if not more enjoyment out of it than the old one. I think the hardest mod will be getting a Pradopoint sticker at the moment

                          yeah the Prado spent a few days at the ARB hospital in Newcastle during the week having some cosmetic surgery done. It now has an ARB Delux Bull Bar, Warn Magnum winch, Safari snorkel, dual battery and a hayman reese towbar - so the economy should be well and truley stimulated now!

                          It amazing what the finance department will approove when they are feeling sorry for you!!!

                          I will start a new thread in the build up section - then people wont have to look at the depressing picture at the start of this thread!

                          Cheers
