Vortex owners do not wanna read this....

In my travels I occasionally see the odd Vortex, well the same two actually. Last night I spotted one very shy maroon one in very good original exterior condition including silver steelies and must be FWD only. It was parked in same old spot under dodgy govvie flats, parked in a little further to avoid the leaking shower grate from above, covered in dust and an UGLY big canary sticker addressed to the owner threatening removal within 7 days of 3.9.09 unless it is registered or identified and removed by owner. These vehicles if collected by the authorities that do not care of the owners well being end up being practised on by rescue squads and crushed. I am gonna think about leaving my own rescue sticker on it and hope owner is still alive, still living there and needs to aprt with it cheaply. It may take my troubled electrics L series 4WD turbo running gear nicely

but the boot's are a bit tight on space for my LPG bottle:(

leve a note on the window and if it is not gone by the time that the letter on the window states it will be tow away just tow it away tonight before then it is free for the picking .tow it away a tiled tray is the way to go . to be safe try to find the owner if u can not find it is yours. i have done it before and got away it as i could not find the owner.
if u find the owner just say mate i did not steal it i was just looking after it for u and it wood be cheaper for them that u tack it and not a towe .

just get a tow truck and tow it away then try to find the owner if there is one .
u can find it at rego .
all is there a copper on here that can look it up for u .
as some times it can work .
or go to the coppers and see if thay can find the onwer for as the car is park in your drive way and u need it moved .
that is before u tow it or after if u move it then u try to find the owner i think that wood be ok .
what do the rest of u all think .
i think just door nok at wear it is .And if u can not find the onwer just tow it away and try to find the onwer .
as u need to doc if u want to get rego on it .

Hey steptoe, would you consider selling me the Clutchpack LSD out of it?

it has gone, leaving typical oil stain underneath. A positive sign is it has gone and the other canaied poo boxes done on same day are still there.Hope it has gone to good owner, wrecker or storage.

"canaied" - what does that mean???

r - there it is - the missing r . Canary - yellow bird, canaried to have a big yellow sticker placed upon a car for defect or removal in this case.

Ah - I understand now.

How are your car problems? Are you at a stage now where you no longer want your car to be towed away?
