why is it suss - do some people have access to emergency service info
if this was a speeding/hooning thread, we would be hearing - what happened to innocent until proven guilty - i guess that line being important is only dependant on who is being accused Last edited by gtxb67; 26-11-2011 at 10:42 AM. |

Yeah I see no evidence that it's arson. Just because he owns cars of value doesn't mean accidents can't happen. I'm sure those cars are worth more to the owner than the money that replaced them.

To right. Some time back a GT HO and another valuable car were destroyed in a shed fire in Qld. This happened at the height of the HO price spike and the owner never got anything like the silly prices they were selling for at the time. |

If the owner loved his cars he would be absolutely distraught, no money would compensate for the loss, which most likely could not be replaced.
