What sort of car/how important is security?

Mate of mine's Dad owns a factory out Whenuapai ways, they have quite a few cars parked in and around it. Only problem is that bits and pieces sometimes go missing.

His Dad won't even notice the car is there, I have two 4AGEs in his garage at home and his Dad thinks they're his :lol:

cars a ae101 gtz with house paint as a paintjob and stripped interior but runs well etc just doesnt look to good. I could put a car cover etc over it and locknuts so not to much could go missing. If you could ask that would be great

Park it at my place if you want, we're on a private road in waiau pa so we have heaps of space and it will be safe as.

I leave my car unlocked with the keys in the ignition all the time 8O

me and dad rent a spot in an aircraft hanger at the local airfield and we only pay a 100 a month (mates rates) and that gives us plenty of security and space to work on cars etc. might be worth investigating?

I use these guys. $45 per week. It's the cheapest secure car storage I could find without any hookups etc.

Oh I already have the house and garage, just too many cars.

It's a little cheaper for me too because I don't get the gst charged to me.
Convenient also because it's 2mins down the road

But yeah, one less place he has to call for a quote i guess

They have 2 sites in Auckland, but maybe container storage only.
Sweet deal on my 40ft, only $2 +gst/ day, but that is a special arrangement.
Ask about leasing a 20ft maybe.
