Official "Spotted" Thread

Post by schift » Fri Oct 29, 2010 6:20 pm

I've seen this type of thread on other forums that I frequent and thought it would be a good idea to have one here!

It's a straight forward concept. Simply post a short sentence every time you "spot" a fellow Zedder.


Here are some guidelines (taken from another site):
Before you post, think about it. I�m sure you'll agree, there are a few guidelines of ethics and morality I think we should all follow.

INCLUDE RELEVANT INFORMATION:

When you are posting something about a car, try to leave out information that may be of interest to thieves or the police. For example, where the owner parks the car and at what times etc is NOT required.

For example:

GOOD: I saw a red 300zx with a nice set of wheels driving along Lambton Quay at around 3.30pm on Saturday. If it�s anyone on here, PM me, I�d like to talk about your car/wheels/kit etc.

BAD: I saw a slammed, vertex kitted 350z with 19 inch Volk TE37 wheels and a massive intercooler, around 10 gauges inside with a BRIDE bucket seat, the stereo looks like it's worth $10,000 also! It's parked at Lower Hutt train station every day. It�s an awesome car, you can�t miss it!

The good post is direct, concise and doesn�t give away lots of critical information which might lead the car getting damaged, vandalised, stolen, or otherwise.

The bad post: If I was a thief, I�d be waiting for the car to be parked so I could take it. If I was a police officer, I'd wait for the owner to return so that I could question the legality of the modifications.
Maybe this could be a sticky?

Gunmetal roadster going south on High Street about 2.00pm.

Within a minute there was a burgundy 300ZX with a monster wing going West on Tuam Street.

Don't think I've seen so many Zeds in Christchurch over a short period of time!

Spotted a stunning yellow 370z at Nizfest today. Really is a stunning colour for a sports car.
