I have one, its a VH SLE s2 308, indigo blue with matching interior, this car was my pride and joy, I drove it like it was a Rolls Royse. Well, I got so passionate about my car, I was affraid to drive it anywhere, so I put it in storage for six years. Twelve month ago I couldn't take it anymore, so I pulled it out of storage, had everything fixed that it needed from front to back, got it registered, WOW , I was in my glee.
6 month ago I had my car parked out the front of my house, I heard a load rev and a quick take off. No way........it couldn't be........SHIT my car, WTF it was gone, I just lost it, I was all confused, I rang the cops, biggest mistake I ever made in my life, this took about 15min, I shouldv'e jumped in my other car and chased them, because if I had of cought them......well......maybe better I did ring the cops.
Anyway, a week of calling all my mates to see if they have seen it, and driving around every night, I get a phone call at midnight from the cops,
"we have found your car"
YES!, "how is it",
"well, the tyre is flat and it's missing a rear bumber bar"
"where is it"
"just of the main street"
"be there in a tick"
so I grabed the spare from the statesman and went straight out. There it was all in tacked, not a dent, some scratches around the boot lock, one flat tyre, spare SLE rim missing, they also took the rear bar, tail light extensions, grille and the centre cover of the steering wheel.
I changed the flat, went over the entire car, started it up, everything sounded fine so I drove it home, and now it's back in storage.
I am going to sell it though, but only to somebody who I know is going to appreciate it and look after it as I did, thats why I joined 'just commodores' because I know I should be able to find the right person here.
If you know of anyone, please let me know. I'm going to ask about $5000.00 the rego is due so it will have 12 month reg.
yeah i know what you mean, i treat my vk like is royalty aswell, some mongrels broke into it and stole the stereo and speakers, right outside my house, which i'm glad they didn't screw the car up coz i was used to driving with the stereo off just listening to it purr, lol, glad to hear it's all good!!
