My blue honda city turbo 1 1983 was stolen from the Westfield Riccarton top level car park two rows from the doors on February 7th 2012. They said there was nothing useful from the cameras, couldnt even tell me how they got in. It was my first car which i have had for three years.

It had white wheels (6 spoke), sunroof, 5% tints on the back windows (dark), had two faded japanese stickers on the boot, a smack under the drivers window and the front of the bonnet, all the windows had the number plate, PN360, engraved on the bottom right or left.

I had just put in an expensive 2.5" exhaust with a siamese dump pipe so it sounds nice, and Veetree boost gauge.

contact number is 0273878720 if any has seen anything.

Hey guys, she has been found! The police picked it up around Sawyers Arms road in Christchurch.

They had taken off the white wheels but replaced them with original honda city 12 inch steel press wheels which seemed a bit weird... As far as damage goes, im getting updates from dad back home (im currently at otago uni) and they have mashed up the ignition barrel so we arent going to try starting her up till im back.

Annoying this is is that they hacked out the 'TURBO' label on the two front seats. It's clear that it was taken for a joy ride because there is tar all up in the front wheel arches.

Thanks everyone!

Good to see you got it back,

Now install alarm, kill switch, removable steering wheel hub, unbreakable tint etc etc,

At least TRY to make it difficult, The City is just so easy to break into / steal
