LR's stolen to order

I read one of the North Yorks newspapers regularly and have noticed that there are a lot of LR's getting stolen recently Exclamation

This is also discussed on another LR forum with high volumes of thefts in the North West particularly. There is a mention of Polish Censored teams using curtain sided lorries to take them to the ports for onward transport in a container to Eastern Europe. TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

Defenders have been particularly hit by these gangs as their antitheft kit is so useless- although why anybody in Poland would want a right hand drive car I don't know.
I know many of my Ukraine officers on the ship would love a Land Rover, any model, but in Ukraine it is actually illegal to own a RHD car. Only tourists have them. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Poland 2006 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Rimini Red

I can hook you up Smile

Tim is right. I think that this info about Polish gangs stealing cars in the UK is bs. Luckily for you Brits if these guys want to steal cars then Germany is much closer.
But seriously speaking the times of big well organised Polish theft groups is long gone. It is not that bad anymore. My name: Patryk

Thanks for the offer Thumbs Up

Just tell the lads to take a few suspension sensors with them in case the Censored breaks down when they are stealing it. Smile
Next Wed would be good for me as I will be away on a works trip?

So if I said "Irish Travellers" have a tendency to steal anything that is not bolted down would that be more believable Question

Well I can verify Irish Travellers are definately in cahoots with Polish citizens. So there is a likely hood that what I posted origionally is true.

Sorry if that offends any law abiding Polish citzens or law abiding Irish travellers. TDV6 - gone
