Offroad-Express

Mate had his trailer stolen from Brooklyn in Wellington last night between 6-10pm.
Trailer has lived on the street outside his house for well over 20 years with a massive chain around the wheels.
He lives on a road with exits past his house so it would seem somebody has done their homework before nicking it.

It is a tandem car trailer with 14" cheviot turbo mags. I will post a photo tonight when I get home as my smart phone is being a smart ass right now and not letting

I presume you mean this one?


Faark!!! I live on the same street, wont disclose name or number but he just had it out last weekend from memory?

I thought Brooklyn was a safe area Will have to get tripple chains onto mine!

Hope he gets it back! a friend who lives just a few doors up from him just had his stolen race car trailer returned so hopefully he has the same luck. (pinched from different part of town and included tow car, trailer and racecar all in one!)

Yup thats the one.

Were you in a helicopter for that photo.

You not talking about Roger and starlet by any chance

Yup Roger, Im good mates with his son Jake.

They just spent the weekend re assembling stolen trailer.

Someone must have seen this thing getting taken! Basicly only one or two roads in and out of brooklyn.

bloody hell, I recall driving past that thing on the way to various things down that street/to come to your pad, chris, and wondering how it never got stolen!
hope it turns up!

Thanks for posting the good picks of my trailer, its amazing how quietly things can be taken, I never heard a bloody thing. Neither did any of my neighbours!

How does one use something stolen that's so distinctive!

was talking to badnuz today when he got a txt to say his mates tandem trailer just got nicked as well

bastards

Jesus this countrys getting bad isnt it!? glad the bastards havent moved down this far south yet, only a matter of time.
Trailers are an easy target though, all you have to do is paint it maybe change the wheels and go register it as a 2012 homebuilt. Too easy, you want to make sure there something distinctive about your trailer so you can recognise it when its been taken and painted etc.

my mates one was distinctive, baby blue colour and quite hefty built too, it was narrow and built for his 4x4 drive over wheel style so no real use to anyone unless they have a 4x4

done

the trailer mentioned in the article was recovered at the offenders property at the beginning of november and has been extesively modified to hide any redeeming features that make it recognisable
