Please keep an eye out for this car, last seen on the M32. Stolen from a member of the ambulance service early hours of this morning



Thanks

'Stolen from a member of the ambulance service'


Any car being stolen is bloody shame but why is their occupation relevant?

Because he needs to get to his Ambiwlans post haste, you fool.

To evoke sympathy I imagine. Also like the fact the Vehicle Reg is in big font above a pic with it removed :P

Probably because it contains some vital kit - and it looks like they may use it as a 'first responder' vehicle, if they're carrying canisters of oxygen in the boot.

I think we can draw the conclusion that it's a bit more important it is recovered with kit intact than it is to recover the average Joe's car.

I'd be wary pinching a car from someone whose car has a Tae Kwon Do membership badge on it... (Having said that, that makes me sound like I pinch other people's cars but anyway...)

Reminds me of the bloke near where I used to live who looked out his window one evening to find two blokes trying to pinch his car. They ran off when he shouted out the door, little knowing that he was the local marathon-running champion. The police apparently found him sitting on two wheezing heaps two miles down the road in the sticks.

Joking aside, hope the vehicle is recovered. My dad's Civic was pinched in a similar way some time ago. Never recovered, Police suggested it had been exported or broken for scrap.

If he was the local marathon running champion there is no way he could have weighed more than 8 stone.
I am not sure two thieves would be that scared.

Those wheels look like the standard ones to me?

Hope the vehicle is recovered quickly and is returned to the owner in the same condition it was in before it was taken.

Perhaps he uses the car for rapid response, first on the scene kind of stuff. The "Compressed Gas" warning sticker suggests that he probably has some O2 cylinders in the boot, and I would wager there will be a paramedic kit in there at all times too.

I suspect you of being one of the thieves in question.
