Scum bags! :rocket:

[whitels1ss]

They must have left the keys in an fairly easy place to find! :doh:

[whitels1ss]

Sounds like they were stolen from some sort of pre-delivery or aftermarket accessory fitting place.

I don't think I would like to have been the person making the phone call to the dealership to explain what happened.:doh:





Most likely both were sold cars..........
Would anyone still want them even though you couldn't replace a brand new black GTSR W1 :doh:

Any idea on build number? Must start a "W1 where are they now" thread. #124 is sitting in Madill's Noosa unsold and I think they also have one up at Gympie unsold after finance fell through for a buyer. Didn't ask how much they wanted for them but I'm guessing its not $170K.

Have a feeling that many W1s haven't actually been sold and dealers are sitting on them with big mark ups. I'm going to laugh if Sydney's falling housing market drags down the Australian economy (perhaps) and there will be a rush to unload these things in a soft economy.

Cheers, Matthew

Sorry, no idea on the build number.

My dealer is sitting on a Black one last I checked, the DP has a white one which is driven. Have seen one other on the road (Logan Motorway).

[white lie]

I've heard there's actually quite a few of them sitting around "available", just not advertised.

[Micks]

Pretty foolish, worth fukall Hot, or broken up for spares! Fukin D*ckheads!!

[BLACK 346]

Saw a white one parked near Moseley square Glenelg last Sunday. Have also seen a black one around my area with custom plates.

Be an inside job or a local scumbag with inside knowledge...... how else would anybody know the car is there and the exact location of the keys in the premises... Super Fishy!!!... no doubt about it...

Wonder what the car is insured for, that would help go to explain things a lot more clearly...

The SV6 would just be a decoy...


Fire coverage on all car insurance policies should be permanently banned across the Country, it would help cut down on so much insurance fraud its ridiculous IMO...

Reading the article, I think the cars were stolen from a sub contract pre delivery accessory fitting business
otherwise it would have said "from a car dealership" in the article.

The only dealership in CBD in Adelaide is "City Holden" & they are a very large highly respected company.

Respected company or not, there are always some dodgy lowlife, scumbags taking advantage of any situation that arises before them...

The vast majority of new cars that get stolen these days, are from people breaking in and stealing the keys and simply driving away.

All my keys are hidden way...

Yeah I agree,
I was just making it 100% clear that this wouldn't be a case of any insurance scam by the dealer. :cheers:

Metro Holden just outside of the city of Adelaide have lost the dealership and HSV as well , maybe they just borrowed it from City Holden............. to make ends meet.....

[whitels1ss]

Some moron has put a set of stolen plates on it & it's been spotted a couple of times driving around Adelaide...

"Two arrested over stolen car pursuit in northern suburbs


15 Dec 2017 11:17pm



A man and a teenage girl have been arrested after a stolen car was followed by the police helicopter through Adelaide's northern suburbs earlier tonight.

Just after 6.30pm on Friday 15 December a police patrol saw a stolen 2017 black Holden GTSR W1 driving erratically travelling south on Main North Road at Gepps Cross.

The brand new V8 sports car was allegedly stolen from an Adelaide CBD business last Monday night 11 December.

Police patrols didn't pursue the stolen vehicle but just before 7pm, PolAir (the police helicopter) spotted the same car driving north on Hackney Road at Hackney.

For the next 30 minutes the stolen car was followed covertly by PolAir through numerous suburbs including Nailsworth, Prospect, Dudley Park, Wingfield, then Mawson Lakes, until it reached Paralowie at 7.20pm, where a female passenger got out of the car.

A police patrol quickly responded to the area and arrested a 17-year-old girl for Illegal use.

The male driver of the stolen car however escaped from patrols by crashing the vehicle through a residential fence in Arras Court.

PolAir continued to track the stolen car back to Mawson Lakes on Port Wakefield Road to Montague Road and a short time later to Day Court a dead end street at Ingle Farm.

Police patrols converged on the area and arrested the driver, a 38-year-man from Craigmore.

He's been charged with numerous driving offences including engaging in a police pursuit driving in a manner dangerous to the public and illegal use. Further police enquiries are being currently being conducted with more charges expected.

There were no injuries in the incident. Very minor damage was caused to one police vehicle and the stolen V8 was damaged when the suspect drove the car through a colorbond fence.

The arrested man has been refused police bail and will appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Monday.

The 17-year-old girl from the northern suburbs charged with illegal use, has been bailed to appear in the Elizabeth Youth Court at a later date."

Maybe it was just one of those special "dad & daughter" bonding things.....? :idea:


Glad the HSV is not badly damaged & nobody else got hurt.

[whitels1ss]

It's on it's way back home. :yup:

[seedyrom]

Well. It’s now run-in

[Jason01]

Well. It’s now run-in

Or f#cked.

[whitels1ss]

Meh, I am sure some of them would get driven harder than that by some new owners. :lol:


This clown might have just done a few wheelies & shit his pants, reports said he lost it a couple of times

can't have been much of a driver. :lmao:


The press cars would get much more than this Bozo could dish out,
quite often even tested on race tracks by proper race drivers,

I am sure it could take a couple of days of this :fewl: driving. :yup:

[vx_clubby]

The car looks okay considering this statement from the police.

"The male driver of the stolen car however escaped from patrols by crashing the vehicle through a residential fence in Arras Court."

[whitels1ss]

Just purely out of interest.....

Anyone know what happened to the car & where it is now?
