It's a strange one all round! To take the car in the first place they must have some balls and a decent bit of knowledge as though they knew what they were doing and within 24hours the car would've been in bits or on a boat out of the country. But then everything from the minute the car left the Pod gates makes me think its just a couple chancers who had a bit of luck(which gladly ran out). To drive it straight down the motorway and then into a garage to put fuel in it and finally start stripping it outside, which is what it looked like in the photos, once again just sounds to me like a couple of chancers!
Just really nice to see it found and shame the little fookers weren't there at the time so you could've broke the theiving little necks!

Fucking lunatics using it on the road etc after stealing it, but I bet they have had a more fun weekend than any of the rest of us

Hope it get recovered in one piece.
i'm just waiting for the post saying "filmed a stolen car on my phone, now being done for driving without due care and attention"

Word on the street is this is a well known local thief who used to nick loads of cossies & is now out of prison, looking for scoobies.

Not sure if he got caught or not. Be vigilant guys.
