Update:

Sorry for the delay in my response.

HR and the individual in questions boss are both aware of what happened.

I have had both a verbal and written apology from the person in question and the company have also apologised saying that if there are any repercussions (damage, fines etc)then they will be jointly responsible for the outcome and I have there full backing if anything comes from this.

It turns out that he actually went for a sandwich and only went about .5 mile up the road and did not pass any cameras or lights, here he met a friend and they chatted for the time he was away. The friend has confirmed this and so have the garage he visited.

I have said that I will be taking the car to my local dealer for a check over and I will be mailing the company with any incurred costs, I am waiting to find out what their response to this will be.

Again thanks for the support. Its helped having this thread to read today

Yes, thank god. Its been one hell of a day to be honest. After spending the best part of an hour on edge and worrying I then spent the rest of the day piss of and angry, mainly at the fact that he had no reason for taking it in the first place which only makes me think 'WHY DID YOU TAKE IT THEN YOU ****'

She is all tucked up in bed now anyway:

How you kept your cool I don't know, qudos to you for that. Deffo make them pay for a dealer to run ECU checks etc. to make sure it wasn't ragged from cold though.

Riwiho, good on you today, seems you handled the situation with great tact and intelligence. I'm sure the Elise will be perfectly OK (think of all the dealer demo's that are bought !!).

To be honest I was minutes away from calling the police but I dont think that would have solved much especially in the long run.

I read the thread but TBH couldn't be bothered to post. There were some really juvenile keyboard warrior posts put up there. Glad it all worked out, I'm sure the car's fine and your man has learned his lesson.
