Soft Top has been slashed.

[ALPS]

Ok guys, so i just realised my car roof has been slashed infront of my house. i'm seriously getting over this bullsh!t. my car has been keyed and now the roof slashed infront of my own home, within a couple of weeks. i was just saving the funds to get my clutch and gearbox repaired. but now this has happened. i can't trust my car on the street. i want a better alarm system, but dont think there could be an alarm to let me know when my car has been keyed or roof has been slashed. my car cant stay in the garage because my mum has to keep her car in there. i'm soo upset that i cant release any of my stress on the bastards who done it. it's going to be a costly excercise to get the key marks and roof reapired. i dont know who could be soo low to do this to me. i have no enemies that i know of. i dont know who could be doing it but it's really frustrating. anyway im sorry to brag but i must say, beware to anyone leaving there cars outside. another s2k owner has also had his car keyed. i think there's s2k haters out there doing it to everyone.

If you have full comp insurance, use it for what its worth.

Ouch bad luck. I'm fearful enough of this... what area do you live in if you don't mind me asking?

That's such bad luck man.

And, is it $2100 because your premium is set very low?

I had a similar thing happen to me, but my excess ended up being alot higher as I had to pay vehicle excess $2000 plus normal excess and then age excess which ended up costing me $2900. I figured it was worth it as I got a new roof installed and a new paint job.

I have to say there is no way I would own an S2000 unless I had a garage and full, low excess insurance.

In 2001 when the car was still fairly new and got a lot of attention I drove to the casino (not a usual hangout of mine) figuring being a casino the undercover parking would have loads of security cameras. Car park was full. Had to park across the street in 'SecureParking'. The attendant asked me how much I paid for the car, as his mates s******ed whilst leaning on their car.

When I came back to the car the roof had been holed, passenger door keyed and they had urinated on the drivers door handle. Insurance looked after everything. Needless to say, I don't drive to town anymore and don't ever use the ironically named 'SecureParking'.

wow, that really sucks to be you.
If you didn't have to replace your clutch then it'd be a good excuse to get yourself a hardtop haha.
Bad luck buddy, such is life unfortunately.
The other day i gunned my s in 2nd gear for the first time in months. What do you know? Got caught 88 in a 50 zone fined 710 and 5 demerit points.
Shit happens, what matters is the way you take it.
Hope everything works out!

Yep otherwise my premium wouldve been over 5000

shouldn't age excess only apply if you were driving and had an accident? not if this sort of thing happened.

Yer i kinda made a mistake buying it without thinking about these consequences. if i knew i wouldn't have bothered. i do regret buying this car. all the grief and money it has caused is ridiculous.
