Yeah as been siad, you see it on police intercepters all the time,
they seal the car park it up and leave for a week or so to see if its recovered. regardless if its being broken for parts or if they plan on keeping the whole car. Then they know if there's a tracker fitted.

Glad you got your car back!
My dad had something similar in his Audi A6 Avant (biturbo one), where someone incidentally in a subaru followed him home, threatened him for the keys and as my dad chucked them into a bush and walked away from the house, they went for the keys rather than him! Phew!
Anyway, they took the car north (from Manchester) and ended up using it in a bank robbery. Got the car back none the worse for wear, but charged for the privilege!
Must have used it for it's load carrying and then changed cars.

I dont get the whole leave the car for a week and see if it gets recovered, of course it bloody will, its not exactly hidden and its reported stolen, tracker or no tracker !
Glad its soon to be back with its owner tho, just hope its not fubard
I had a car stolen many yrs ago, got recovered from a housing estate to a local garage, police give me garages number, i call, guy says yeah we got it, i ask if its ok, he says no problems mate, car is fine, phew i thought.
got there, they had used a baseball bat i had in the boot to reshape the complete car !!! i said to the garage owner you told me the car was fine, his reply, well, i didnt know the condition of it when you were driving it around !
sheesh

Hello guys, I have some good news. My car was found in Swindon. Parked up nice in a lane.. I have not seen it as yet, but police say it looks ok inside and out. They also said it looks like it’s been ragged around a field or something. Only hope the engine is still intact. I hill climb it. So it’s used to a bit of that. It’s running 450bhp on full boost. I guess they had some fun. Let’s hope there is no damage underneath. it will be so good to be getting my T25 back. Any body recommend a tracker system. I need to put one back on it.

Not true..My late Mum had her Series Landrover stolen...It was found parked in a layby on the A38!! It had been there for 3 weeks according to the Police but they didn't do anything about it because, 'they never get stolen'.
