Hello Everyone ,

We went for a swim on 2-Aug-2018 and the worst we can imagine " Car got stolen" from the QE2 Christchurch car park and guess what this is not the first time and still the Council / QE2 have not posted any posters to inform that theft cases (of car and others ) have been reported from QE2. So please be very careful no place is safe.

Well my car was Toyata Ractis - 2006 Blue color but looks grayish . Please keep an eye and inform me or police if you find my vehicle.
