STOLEN : 28 Feb : Silver WRX Wagon.

[Guest]

My sisters WRX was stolen at 5.30am from Onehunga.

She owned it for a total of 12 hours.

It was parked outside her house for about an hour between 4.30am and 5.30am when she heard it drive away.

2000 Subaru WRX STI wagon. Silver, Silver Mags.

Plate: Rego: FGS95

Holy Moly

Thats really bad luck, Hopefully you can recover her car!

[SILNCR]

Bad luck or sounds like the old owners of it might have wanted it back???

[Joker]

yea call me skeptical but sounds initially like the ol' sell the car and keep a key trick... (or know the new location then steal it back trick)

man that SUCKS!

[QRAF]

gutted sorry to hear hope she got insurance sorted before buying it?

i agree sounds like the old owner wanted the mods back.

[Guest]

Hey yea she did have insurance sorted but the insurance company are being super difficult and trying their hardest not to pay out. They have a private investigator investigating her to see whether she stole her own car. It was a fresh import, from buy right cars, but would love to know if anyone else has had similar experiences because it does seem like someone at the insurance company may have had her address and been waiting....

If anyone knows of anyone selling a silver wrx sti thats not been thrashed, 2000 - 2002 model, we would be interested as now looking for a new one....

i cant see the engine or gauge cluster but that looks like an STI hatch to me... bug eye - or v7 (2001-2002) was the very last year they made the STI in a hatch variant

Whats the insurance company?

[Guest]

She had it insured with ASB.

Either that or it was someone from Autosure Mechanical Insurance company...

It's May, and she finally got paid out. How would you like that. 3 months of waiting, and having a P.I interview your family and friends for 3 months. What a crock

They earn interest on your money, think a couple of hundred claims, and the interest starts to add up.
