Lucky Phil Posted 10September, 2021 Report Share Posted 10September, 2021 I just saw on 7 news that thieves have stolen a red 944 turbo. Looked like a nice car. Anyone here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James P Posted 10September, 2021 Report Share Posted 10September, 2021 It’s a friend of a few people here, it happened a few weeks ago & as far as I know it’s still missing, long term owner & good Porsche guy, I checked the car out a few months ago when the owner was in my street visiting someone.. turned out we went to the same school & owner was in my brothers class Sov 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalai Posted 10September, 2021 Report Share Posted 10September, 2021 Was stolen on the 21st August. https://www.9news.com.au/national/police-chase-ids-after-vintage-porsche-stolen-off-melbourne-street-brunswick/c52c2c5a-8e46-483b-9d3f-efd6b4c0f65d?fbclid=IwAR0cZFcLsVGqsWPX1P8BJWk-kB9PQKqG2_Xqfj5O_vEUBa7KDHkHTIVqO8A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

911 Posted 10September, 2021 Report Share Posted 10September, 2021 Is the car insured? Most likely long gone I'd say by now unfortunately, given the amount of media attention it's had too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalai Posted 10September, 2021 Report Share Posted 10September, 2021 There is always some chance even if low that it could be located. Just this week a Mazda R100 coupe stolen 8 years ago was returned intact. https://www.bendigoadvertiser.com.au/story/7419069/gisborne-police-seize-rare-mazda-stolen-in-2013/ 9fan, Yeatesy and GTP911 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnell Posted 11September, 2021 Report Share Posted 11September, 2021 I just bought in that area with only secured (but shared) parking. I was contemplating using that for the 911 but looks like its paid storage for me! I hope this guy gets his car back! Ps. I hate when people refer to 80s cars as 'vintage' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzJustin Posted 11September, 2021 Report Share Posted 11September, 2021 So sad to hear for the owner. It's a 1990 model too so one of the last 15 Turbos in Australia. Hope he gets it back (and in one piece)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
