They Lost my car, then found it, but cant find my keys

I went to pick up my Celsior today, finally found where the hell I was supposed to go, then waited in a little tiny room full of overweight sweaty tow truck drivers for about 25 mins. Then I finally get served, everything goes well, I get told to wait out the front, they will broing the car out. 5 Mins later out comes a Celsior, "ummm no sorry thats not mine" I say so they check the VIN, sure enough that one isnt mine. 1 hour later I ask wtf is going on, they tell me they cant find the car, 10 mins later they find it, 45 mins later I get told that they have lost my keys lol.
So I have to go back and get it tomorrow after they get a locksmith to put new locks in it.......
Hope it goes a bit smoother tomorrow.

Fuck that.
Make sure you have the car real secure at home etc.
Seen to many cars stolen lately with spare keys to fall for that shit.

Put new locks in it when you get it or just shave off all the locks ...

Yep, also a note, when they brought out the first celsior (the wrong one) about 5 mins later it drove up to the gate again, they were using it to transport truck drivers around, smelly fat dirt truck drivers without any covers on the seats.

update, ok its hard to piss me off, but I am getting there.
I rang them at 9am this morning like they told me to, they guy I needed wasnt there, he rang me back at 1030am and told me the locksmith was having trouble because of the type of car etc etc bla bla. He rings me back at 330pm and says the locksmith couldnt do it but they found my original key.
If I cant pick the car up tomorrow im gunna be pissed, in my opinion they should be paying to get it to my place.
Also if the locksmith has tried to change the locks they are probably fucked, this is giving me headaches already and I havent even got the car yet.

Towtruck driver was also slightly not very smart in unloading it, but no real harm came to it.
WTB some wheels to suit this thing, till I find what I am after, I dont want to buy any 275/30/19's lol

Thats a sweet looking Celsior dust!
Also if your battery was fudged then it probably hasn't been driven around the docks much.
I used to work at P&O Glebe Island car terminal and the only cars that got thrashed hardcore were the imports that were shipped without import approval... a certain Evo 5 comes to mind.
Its mostly the office guys that thrash the cars though as they are the ones with the keys... the plebs just get to drive them hard from the deck to the dock and then they are locked up.
