That's looks quite a way off the road - what the hell happened?

Tree is absolutely fine which was my main concern.

Car was stolen. Strangely, the driver and passengers didn't hang around for us.

I suspect it would have had a cash point in the back of it at some point over the next few nights..

Yeah we have have had alot of ATMs done round Cambs lately..
It amazes me that these twats seem to get out and run off all the time. You hit a tree doing 30 on a winter's day and it kills you...no justice..

They weren't wearing seat belts either as none of the pre-tensioners have gone off.

It's the same with drunk drivers who cause accidents. They always seem to walk away with nothing, leaving carnage behind them.

I'd really like to sit down with these misfits and understand why they do what they do.

It puzzles me greatly, I'll guess they have had shit parents, no education and think they can do whatever they want to get what they think they're entitled to.

I assume you mean as in percentage of that particular model on the road?

An awful lot more new Fords are currently being stolen than Mercs!

There really should be more use of the humble wood chipper.

Depending on the crime committed, the amount of body fed to the chipper can be adjusted.

Additionally the speed could be adjusted.





It would likely attract viewing rights from likes of Sky and BT.

I think it's the most stolen in total, several sites citing this as the official list:

I wonder how they work that list out, looking at just the west mids stats for the first 6 months of this year it's hard to believe more C Class are stolen than say Fiesta's or Focus.
