It was parked between two cars in my driveway. Must have taken some manouvering to get it out over my neighbours lawn. This is the 3rd car stolen from me in 2 yrs and I'm getting a bit paranoid. I bought this car in California, low miles and needing attention. Never been winter driven and no rust anywhere. I did all the engine, suspension, electrical, and interior work, now all for nothing. I was setting up for repainting in few weeks but that's not likely to happen. Times like this I wished I lived in the US so I could own a gun and shoot the bastards.

Pete (possibly looking for a replacement car) After a recent trip to Canada, it seems to me you're better off losing a car every now and then. But losing three cars is a bit much. I can't GIVE the things away and they steal yours. You never had leads on any of them? Sounds like you need Lojack and a tire iron. Good luck getting it back, Pete. Sorry about your losing it as I know what it is when you put so much into them.

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada the car theft capital of the world. The last car that got swiped was by a kid who had more than a hundred cars under his belt. He gets sent right home and apparently (at least once) went out again after being caught that day and swiped another car. It's a game. These underaged thiefs know the rules and what they can get away with. I'm guessing my car will be stripped at a chopshop. The work required to get at my car compared to easier cars to take, makes me think I'll never see it again. At best it'll be totaly trashed.
