There I was sitting in the house minding my own buisiness when the neighbour calls me on my mobile to tell me some guy was taking photos of my car. Went out and asked him what he thought he was doing and he told me his hobby was going round taking pics of scoobs . Told him I didn't want him taking pics of my car and he asked if I wanted to see his pics of all the others. Almost felt like asking him if he wanted to come see some pupies. Is this for real do people really do this or am I to expect a letter from the law saying my car has a twin

Yeh think I'll be keeping a close eye on the car for a bit. To be honest he did seem a bit of a nerd though

if you remember Gone In 60 seconds the professionals do go and take a picture of the car they want to steal for their shopping list..

Its "preping" or "time to shop".

keep an eye on the car.

I wouldn`t knock the attention, but I would keep a close eye on the car tho cos you never know , this guy seemed a bit of a nerd from what you were saying. So don`t worry.

I think he was just a nerd. A pro thief wouldn't be so obvious as to photo the car in full view of the neighbours. Anyway i dont see why you need a photo of a Subaru prior to stealing it.

Ive had loads of people taking pics of mine, mainly kids with their camera phones

never really bothered me tbh, i just pretend like I don't know they are doing it

Anyway in Gone in 60 seconds, didnt they use a real camera with big zoom lens, and hide (except the Lambo I think)
