Bogans and shinny things Tue, 13 December 2005 01:02 Go to next message
awoke this morning and decided that i'd check the levels on my car(st-162 celica), and to my surprize some bogans had stolen my tyer pressure caps(you know those little screw on caps were you put air into the tyers). anyway its not the first time that somthing has happened to my car, and everytime its been not long after i've washed it so its all nice and shinny.

In the almost 2yrs that i've owned the car its been a victom of several eggings(has now got chipped paint on the rear spolier thing, front divers mirror, and the bump strip on the drivers rear 1/4 pannel has a crack in it).

i've been looking to upgrade soon to an sw-20 mr2(within 2months all going well Wink ) but its got me thinking that i realy shouldnt do it as i have no doubt that the car will become more of a target!

i believe that in my area you can compare bogans to magpies on the basis that 1. they both like shinny things 2. they run away when you walk outside.

anyways, sorry bout the long post guys.

Garage your car.
I've never had a problem with people targeting my car. The guy accross the road who owns a nice black SW20 (very good paint) hasn't ever had a problem, and he doesn't garage it.

Perhaps try moving?

Perhaps get one of those car covers? Not only will it protect your car from eggings, bird crap etc, it'll also be an "out of sight, out of mind" kinda thing. Then again, someone might deliberatly go for it 'cuz of the cover. Razz

Get a car alarm and immob. Or set up a dummy in the passenger seat and make it look like a dude sleeping in the car. Smile It'll act as a scarecrow.

what about a shiny bling bling gangster style scarecrow, that way that will get taxed before anything on yer car! in fact the scarecrow and the bogan might become friends seeing as they share an almost identical level of intelligence

could just be local kids as well, when holidaying up in Yamba ours were stolen off our camry, went to repco the guy said the kids in the local aboriginal settlement have tackle boxes full of them and they just go and knock them off as a challenge to see who can collect the most.

i was just going to suggest you stab the next person who does it and leave the body as warning to the next person who comes along but your plan may also work

Stop washing your car.

Thats my tactic and it works a treat. No one has tried to break into it because it looks like shit.

Just move out of the projects/ghettos and you will not have to worry about bogans ever again Very Happy

Shinny = x

Shiny = Smile
