Yep, my loved car got stolen while I was at work - La Trobe University, Bundoora. It happened on Thursday, April 11 between 7:30am and 7pm.

I'm devastated as I spent about 6 month deciding on a car and finding the right one, another 6 month building it up and the Missus and I were just getting ready for an extended outback trip which was the reason to buy such a monster in the first place.

It's a Nissan Patrol GQ, number plate FJT-448, green metallic, steel roof rack with half-pipe wind shield, 2 spare wheels (one on roof rack), electric switch-board on cargo barrier covered by southern cross, storage system in boot, extra headlights on bullbar.
See photos.

Any help, which will aid in finding the car, will be rewarded! Please message me and call the police should you see my car or parts of it.

Cheers,
Flo-w

Sorry to hear about your loss, will keep an eye out.
If its any consolation, it look like a truck worth stealing. Looked great is what I mean.

Welcome mate, surely the best forum on the net. If you need it, you can get it, if you want to know it, just ask it.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of the greatest show on earth.

Not good mate. Nice rig and with a draw system like that it shouldn't be hard to pic..

If you ever feel like it stick up a build thread on it. Some great design ideas there..

Do any accessories stick out, maybe they would be on another 4x4 next time up Tallarook for eg.
Tyres rims anything different that can be reported if spotted, personally I think a 4" rusty nail
through the ball sack for these scum. Feel for you, hope they can find these pr%$Cks. Years ago we recovered a mates motorbike
from the tyres he had, dont give up, your Accessories may be on a 4x4 next time someone is up Tallarook for EG.
Put up a list as accessories might lead to finding these scum.

Edit just looked at your rig, to me I think guys should be looking for your roofrack as its different.
plus if its on a young bucks ride you may have the scum just my thoughts, but thats what I'll be looking for.
What brand and size tyres ????

Good pick up..........also blue carpet as opposed to the standard grey.

Surely they can't be so STUPID as to steal one Patrol to fix another one. Just look for that roof rack I say we'll get it.
Got a good feeling on this one. Remember theives are idiots and liars and to lie you need a good memory, plus they are stupid,
hopefully stupid enough to put some of Flows accessories on another Patrol, what a pack of Poons

Threedogs and all:
The roofrack is different as it's home made by the last owner. It has a half-pipe as a wind shield at the front. See photo.
The tires are 32" BFG MT, about 80% and the spares 100%. There's one distinct cut along one of them, about 5cm long and a few mills deep.
There's an LED light strip on the inside of the boot around the door with a switch on the left.
There's also a LED switch behind the passenger door on the co-driver's side.
The switch-board is unique with Baintech fuse block, 2x cable splitter and a 1200W 240V unit.
The awning is from Tigerz with the Tigerz's labels removed and one supporting arm is missing. It has an LED strip mounted to it.
The storage system is unique (see photo). http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?14198-Another-storage-system-mine&p=260461#post260461
The speakers in the doors are aftermarket and have a wooden spacer underneath. http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?14510-Sound-system-upgrade-GQ-(head-unit-speakers-aplifier)&p=271698#post271698
There are two water bladders inside, one is custom made to fit between drawers and cargo barrier http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?14804-Water-Storage&p=270570#post270570
The bullbar has a sandflag mount on the left side drilled into it. Should be a 16mm hole.
