This is not necessarily beacuse T's and FPV's are not targeted, but the crooks dont usually have a preference and there are alot more XT and N/A XR6 out there. Cars with big mods that are stolen is more to do with the speciality of the car itself.When a car is an easy target for a car theif, they dont usually have a preference, though generally those with no security are far more often stolen then others.I.B.percentage wise (cars stole/cars on road), im sure more T's, FPV's etc get stolen than XT's.

In comparison to all the Nissans and Hondas that I hear of getting knocked off I dont hear of many B series.

Put me down as a yes, as I try to get out there and knock them off from time to time.

hulk xr6t Member 160 Member For: 17y 8m Posted 30/04/08 11:29 PM Author Share Posted 30/04/08 11:29 PM The question I have is are they easy beats? Can a Theif take them without the keys?Obviously we cannot stop them if they get the keys but other than towing them away can they be driven away???So If you go and park your T at Mt Druit station all day (besides the vandalisation) what do you rate the thiefs chances of driving it away?

Have a look at the statistics.Statistics on stolen cars in Australia.
