Hi there,

My mother has just taken her 2011 Range Sport Supercharged into her local Dealer to have her winter tyres fitted as well as a general fluids check-up, during the service they found her Spare Wheel had been stolen from the underside of the car.

Apparently according to the Dealer a series of similar thefts have happened, the thieves are cutting the winch cable that suspends the Wheel which allows it to fall from under the car and then walk away with it. The sixth case this month according to them at the one Dealer.

My mother then sent a picture to a family friend with a 2008 Range Rover V8 Diesel, only to find the same had happened to them!

Has anybody else come across this?

If not take your spare off and put it in the boot!!
