Ok, this has been a ongoing fight at my house. I had a old toyota which wouldnt fit in the yard, so i had no choise but to have it parked out the frount. This is a small country town so its normally not that huge of a issue.
Anyways, one day i noticed the door locks had marks of someone forcing something in there, i was annoyed.
Next the ignition had force marks, now i was spooked, as obviously they had made it into the car. I also watched a couple of suspicious characters walking past the car looking in, and after watching where they walked i found a twisted pair of scissors. Which is what they must be using to break the locks.
Even worse, the scissors were originally mine, so they must have come into my yard to get the scissors to stick in the car.
We parked it way down the driveway and because it sat there for a month or so the car wouldnt start because of the driveway on a huge lean, so we had to push it back up in hopes that putting it on a flat surface might fix the problems.
In the meantime i had organised for Mum to come pick the car up and take it to her house, which she lived a hour or so away, so had to get it running again, and it went back out the frount again while we figured out what was wrong.
Last night i woke at like 4am or so doing my pregnant fatty loo break that i do every night, and i also peeked out the window to check on the car.
I had to rub my eyes cos IT WAS GONE!!
I poked my partner awake and we went outside to see it approx 30 metres down the road. I was laughing hysterically as a few days prior we had taken the battery out to charge it. And the car theives HAD successfully stolen the car after all these attempts, except there was no battery and therefore push start didnt work as well as it should have :lol:
Even funnier was it had the handbreak on and it was in gear and evrn the doors were locked?
So we put the battery in it and drove it back up to the house, Mum took it home this arvo cos no doubt they would take it again tonight if it was there.
I was tempted to drive it around the ghettos and hopefully annoy some really persistant and stupid car theives.
