STOLEN!: CSL55 Black E36 320i Christchurch

[RichieRichNZ 0]

Hi, This was stolen from an address on Burke St on Sat 24/09/11

It had a skid mark from where it was parked about 7 -10 metres. I believe Its been dragged onto a trailor or truck.

Please if you see it contact me on 0278568510

The chromes are very noticable as I havent seen any others like them.

Any help much appreciated

BL man.. damn what a shame... Insurance??? your chances of finding it in one piece by now is next to non. prob be chopped up or ditched somewhere and burnt...

Are these f**kers that organised now they are using tow-trucks to steal cars? Surely someone would have heard the truck and the winch pulling the car up?

you'd be surprised how little people pay attention to these things.

When my car went missing even the police said i should ring the local tow companies to check if they had any jobs in the area.

Apparently they have stolen cars by calling unwitting (or uncaring) tow companies.

Yeah it was insured. Having trouble getting them to pay what its worth tho.

Pretty guttered after doing so much work to it.

It was missing so many parts. I'd only just replaced everything so that it was all mint condition to get ready for sale.

Took a day off work the week before to fix a water leaking problem. So now its got a brand new water pump and thermostat housing.

The chromes are what will stand out the most. I havent seen any others like them.

Now I was told (correct me if i'm wrong) the stud pattern for an E36 is the same as an E46 and Commodores?

If so, that should narrow my search down...

No EWS then which means easy starting of the engine.
