Default Anyone lost a red AU XR6?

Theres been a red XR6 parked in a back street in Wheelers Hill (Vic) for a while now and its extremely annoying as its parked facing the wrong way with the back end angled out onto the road, the spot its parked is also on a slight bend.

Anyway i noticed a parking ticket on it today so its obviously been dumped there or something because you wouldnt leave your car in a position like that if you wanted it to stay straight. Still looks 100% complete & normal though and generally a tidy car, just a little dirty from the outside elements.

So anyone had their xr stolen or want some parts? Go get it out of my way!

I live 10 minuites from there! Did you report it to the police? Imagine how we would feel if our XR was stolen and those that saw it didn't report it! :jab:

You think a police car would drive past it, and maybe take a look at it.

If its there after 28 days of the parking ticket being issued, the owner will get a letter which I'm sure would show the details of where the car has received it's ticket. Loses his car and gets a ticket for his troubles. :

I agree there id hate it if it was my car ................. runs outside to make sure my RED XR is STILL in the driveway
Bucky you'd think they'd know it was missing hey rather then waiting for the penalty notice unless it actually has been stolen. Keep your eyes peeled on here case it is someones from here
