My green Suzuki Vitara was stolen last night with my gear in it . (Yes I know why did I leave my gear in it particularly when I have had my cars stolen 3 times and broken into twice .i did bring my board in though and then was asked to intervene in a teenager daughter fight and didn't bring the rest in)

At long reef over Christmas a few years back, the thieves would have a spotter and some one to break into the cars at long reef car park.
They would do a line of about 5 cars at once and be gone in less than a minute. I had some kites, jeans and credit card stolen and they went on a $3000 shopping spree and cleaned out the cars on both sides.
They stole about 8 kites and a bunch of other stuff, not bad for a minutes work...
I reported it to the police in Dee Why, the reply was, don't leave anything in the car, because the car park gets robbed all the time fool.
Its some times safer to leave your kite on the beach.
Check your car insurance, a mates car was robbed, but his insurance covered everything in his car that was stolen. I don't know the details, or if its extra cover, but may be worth having.
f@$king scumbag thieves!!!!
I've had my house done over 3 times, the last time i had left my fourby in the garage and keys on the kitchen table, they broke in went through the entire house, loaded up all the good stuff into the 4wd and just drive it out fully loaded!!!
Tip - dont leave car keys inside your house when out (or at least hide them somewhere).
Good luck, hope you get your car back, will keep an eye out for the kites on the 2nd hand market.
Car found in Windale . kites bar and lines and wettie gone .Bags left behind .These guys look like they were joy riders .Lots of rubber gone from the back tires ,dirt everywhere and they have smashed into something metallic that has pushed the bull bar back gone up over the bull bar and smashed into the windscreen halfway and smashed the front pillars .other than that car looks fine .car still goes and started no probs with ahalf a tank of petrol in it. I 'd say they plan to use the kites SO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR PROBABLE KOOKS IN A PARK AROUND WINDALE OR REDHEAD ON THE NEXT WINDY DAY .hopefully it'll be really blowin and they get a thorough workover .There was a 13.5 which should do the trick.
I re ckon we might catch up with these pricks .The driver is a smallish person judging by the seat and mirror adjustment they had made .
Ill keep an eye out for ya lachlan. Be quite silly to steal kites and try to fly em at the local.
Kite community is to tight. Hope you get your gear back Dude.
Have a look at ur House insurance as well. U might be able to claim ur kites on your house insurance if your car insurance doesnt cover it. I know my policy covers me if they are stolen, even if they are in my car down the beach. Its worth a look anyway.
BTW the mighty Zuk came through a mighty smash by the look of it with no apparent damage to the occupants ie no evidenceof blood everywhere and the Zuk not looking too worse for wear . So much for a tonka toy eh Craig
Your zuk must be like the tonka truck I had about 40 years ago, couldn't kill that 1 either
But mine was a big yellow dump truck
They also took the carton of gudang garam indo smokes that were in my car .Also I just remembered that the last session that I had in my wettie I weed in it and then the wind dropped and I didn't get around to washing it so here is the description of one of them at least .
Small to medium person wearing a stinking ill fitting wetsuit, smoking stinking indo cigarettes while being dragged around and smashed by a 13.5 m delta kite on the next windy day.
