I have just seen this on gumtree, I think it has been stolen but there seems to be a bit more to the story.

Seems odd he can't put the name of the bloke he suspects on there but CAN put the name of his suspected accomplice!

More to this than meets the eye i think! Let's face it, you don't often know the name of the person who stole your car! Maybe it was up for sale and the guy came for a test drive and disappeared, who knows?

If only somebody could come up with some kind of Government body to deal with these kind of things ? A force of some kind that could help people recover stolen goods and the like..........:teeth_smi le:

I was thinking similar Mark - perhaps call them the "Stolen Vehicle Squad".

Seems a bit rum...I contacted the guy via Gumtree to find out more and have shared the ad on a couple of FB groups. I think there is more than meets the eye here too.

Like Dave says, a bit strange that he knows the guys names that took it.

On Retro Rides forum the stolen section gets a new post nearly every day about another Ford being taken. Car crime isn't kept in check and isn't a priority for the police.
