UPDATE @ 13:15 – Island Echo is told that the vehicle has been found by its owner parked at RSPCA near Merstone, not far from Rookley.
Ford Focus? Why Bother?…..Should have gone to Specsavers….
Your comment? Why Bother?
Just a bit of humour, don’t take it lituraly, we have and will always live among scum, that’s the world we live in.
This is a prime example of the stupidity of today-materialistic.
Regardless of what make it is, it’s a family car. Be completely different if the shoe was on the other foot, eh?
It’s still somebody’s property that some Shyte-4-brains had no right to take. Catch him/her and Brand ‘THIEF’ on their forehead
Low life scum
I saw this sort of happen tried calling 101 last night couldn’t get through then I felt a bit silly thinking it was probably nothing couldn’t believe it when i saw this on Facebook this morning I have now contacted 101 with details
What did you actually see?
would have been better to call 999, crime in progress. 101 can take forever to get answered…. Good of you to be thoughtful and hindsight is a wonderful thing…
Ring 101??
Might as well report it to the local cat.
Complete waste of time.
There was a BMW (a nice one) dumped at the end of Monkton street (Monday) on double yellow lines for most of the day. The drivers door was left open too. Like someone had got out and done a runner. Called police, told me to ring abandoned cars, despite me telling them the drivers door was open. The car was legal according to DVLA. Police could not have cared less. Caused havoc for the busses, could not wait at lights without blocking road.
