"Word on the street" is some gypsies (I'm not sure if thats an offensive word or not?) went to the dealership and bought a new Range Rover for 100k and paid it all in cash, which the dealership shouldn't have accepted but did.

They went back in two days and asked to return the car and wanted the money in a bank account, which the dealership refused to do. So they left the car there and went to the car overnight and burnt it down. They got a call from Land Rover the next day explaining explaining the car has been burnt and Land Rover cannot pay for the car as they will have to claim on their own insurance. So the following night, they returned and burnt the whole place down.

Not sure how much of this is true though. A friend of mine has a shop nearby and apparenly a customer knows the people who did it.
