Hah, I'm keen. I was thinking of going that way after work and just cruising around the area a little bit to see if I can spot it.

Car was spotted in Albany around lunch time yesterday apparently.

But definitely local to the shore/hibiscus coast.

Hey guys,

Yeah, pretty shit situation really! The car appears to be all there, but I'll need to see it up close and inside to be sure (after forensics are done with it). Then comes the process of sending it straight to Nissan and having them check absolutely everything, having Final Touch detailing spend a day or two going over the whole car and then having my painters get to work on what needs doing. It will probably be quite the drawn out process now, but insurance are on the ball and it will be moving along at a good pace anyway.

That article makes it sound like I had underlying intentions (which pisses me off) and I'll be in contact with them shortly. They've just added information where they've seen fit and put it out of context - mainly in regards to the female.

At least the car is back though and the vivid drawing of a penis on the inside door card was a lovely addition to top it all off.

Because he has been arrested countless times for methamphetamine, burglary and violence related charges (including a 9-year stint in jail for holding up three takeaway stores with a pistol in 1999), apparently he's going to be locked away for at least 10-14 years and when she's caught she too will get around 10 years.

excellent news on the car! Don't waste your time on the reporters, they'll make up anything to sensationalise a story. I've been following the news in other forums, and it seems the world is full of idiots that run their mouths off without getting facts right. The one that made me laugh was on PCWorld (I think?) who said there are a couple of cars like yours on TM at 2-3k.
