Hey guys,

My car was broken into in my friend's driveway here in Westbank (Daimler and Highway 97) and the thieves stole a ton of stuff from it. This happened between last night and this morning between 10 PM and 9 AM. We were here checking out the Knox hillclimb and the Datsun car show.

The police case file is 2012-24508. I really appreciate the help and am majorly upset that this happened.

Stuff that was stolen:

Nardi 330mm. deep corn steering wheel - black perforated leather with red stitching
NRG slim thin quick release attached to the wheel
Black w/ blue pattern Dakine backpack
Nikon D50 DSLR camera
Nikon SB600 flash - transparent red cover on the front was cracked and held together with modelling glue
Nikon 18-55 and 50mm. f1.8 lenses
Oakley Gascan sunglasses - white frame with red mirror lens and red O logo
Invicta watch - stainless silver, submariner style
Nixon watch - plastic yellow with grey spots on the band
Swiss Army knife
Black leather Paul Smith wallet - has a really colourful inset of a Mini suspended on a crane

I understand that some of the stuff above are pretty general with no distinguishing features but I would like to have my wheel back if anything. I really appreciate the help once again! NEVER leave shit in your car no matter how 'safe' the circumstances are.

That sucks. Why the hell did you leave all that stuff in your car?

Grew complacent.

We were leaving this morning and I assumed it was a safe neighbourhood since we were here all weekend without issues with several nice cars.

Holy shit beautiful car..
Sucks big time.

The wheel and camera/accessories are most likely to end up on Craigslist.. I don't think anything else on that list would be worth selling, maybe the Invicta and Oakleys for cheap.

Already have, thanks dude.

It was the first time I ever left so much shit in my car, just so happened to be the worst and last time. 7 other cars on the street were hit last night too. Brutal.

I think I see your car parked in the neighbourhood; I was admiring it when I was out for a walk on this past Saturday morning.
