Once again if it was a insurance job or inside job im sure it could have been done better i mean no way would they have let all the cars be taken with the trackers still in them its obvious they would be found in a car park or such like.

why would anyone want to go to all the trouble of robbing 10 top cars if they were just going to take them and then dump them.. especially if you take into account the risk off getting caught.. wehn the alram goes off. or maybe they knew the alarm wasnt working which leads to an inside job..

maybe just maybe the cars were a coverup for the theft of the toaster, etc..
you may be onto something there

why thank you dojj.. i do make quiet a detective

and carlo.. do you think that it makes a dif if the trackers are still on if it was an iside job? im not 100% certain but wont they get some kind of rebate from the insurance company now as they will have to loose out on some money now because the cars are stolen and recovered...

ps extreme im not saying it is an inside job its just my consperacies

Trackers wont be the hardest things to remove, if it was a perfessional job from any of the Birmingham lot etc and they are heavy wieghts into this kind of thing these cars would long be on a container ship out the country, or parked in private lock ups and people removing trackers.

Not accusing but seems like teh insurance rebate thing make sense

Thing is tho as the cars were in the garage anyway it would have made perfect sense to rip all the trackers out & dump them after the cars were away or whilst they were being taken then the chances of them getting them back are slim.Now they have got a load of cars that they will prob struggle to sell surley if it wass a inside job they would have thought of that..

That's probably why they nicked 10, and only drove away in the 3, that might not have had trackers

It would then look like they left them all on side street's but 7 of them were tracked the other 3 would then be just unfound due to not having trackers.

if it was a proper bunch of criminals what did it,you wouldn't see or hear them cars again. the trackers would of been straight out and the cars either already ear marked for ringing or breaking or sold abroad,leaving them in a side street wondering if the plod will come to it seems amatureish.

Not sounding funny but maybe an upset customer with a bit of knowledge and some semi-handy friends could have pulled this off if they were slightly more observant!

LMFAO @ Matt's comments, I do wonder sometimes Matt!

so a customer went to all the trouble of stealing 10 cars.. without knowing about cctv or alarms?.. but then again if the garage was planning on getting cctv and called some one in to get a quote maybe they planned it lmao

sounds like even Police can not count they only have 6 cars not 8 out of 10......don`t ask no idea what the other 2 cars are yet.

the lambo has some rear quater scuffs and suspension damage from what has been seen of it so far.

looks like fingers pointing to the alarm company from what we have herd today but we will have to wait and see.
