Number plate stolen!
I have a STI wagon which I park in my drive, it is covered by a car cover as it is only used at weekends. Today as I left the house I noticed the cover was up slightly at the back after looking closer I found the number plate missing and also at the front. I have notified the police who said it was probably stolen to put on a vehicle to commit a crime with, has any scoobynetters had a simular thing happen to them? also I am worried that they may have taken them and then will come back with different plates and steal the car. Do you think I am worrying unnessessarily or is this something that goes on.
There are three other cars parked in the drive why take the STIs plates?

They may stick them on a nicked STi - same colour etc. That way if it does get checked it doesn't flag as stolen and it looks like the record on the PNC. Only an examination of the engine/chassis numbers would show that the vehicle is cloned.
Watch out for any rogue parking tickets etc.
