What colour blue, that orig Holden Metallic Blue or other? What time was it seen heading North? are there any identifying stickers on it, presuming the Plates have been changed? Probably a pic would help too!

Yeah some fucking cunt stole my flatmates old shitty ford laser from the carport in our flats. It was an old shitty 80's ford laser. I mean it looked shitty. Was alright mechanically and we'd cut the rust out of it , but the paint was fucked.

They didn't steal my BMW the cunts either. I would've loved that (since i would've made a profit).

I didn't think that 1 tonners were 'tow truck legal' anymore ??

From the Tow Truck Website:

Section 56 of the Tow Truck Industry Act 1998 makes provision for the Tow Truck Industry
Regulation 1999 to prohibit certain tow trucks. Clause 67 of the Regulation defines a
prohibited tow truck as a one-tonne tow truck. However, a one-tonne tow truck that is
operated under the authority of a licence is not a prohibited tow truck if the TTA has
approved its use and operation as a condition of the licence.

Furry Muff...

I just never see them anymore on the road - they used to be everywhere..

I guess that is partly due to their low lift capacity compared to a F250/F350 etc

1 tonner = 550kg = 1100kg car
F350 = 1350kg = 2700kg car

I miss my tonner... :O
