Bit more info

There is CCTV at the site as the vehicle was driven out with a ford transit that turned over the garage too. I don't believe that the security devices were fitted as it was inside a building. I have a Clutch Claw and Disclock but the car was in for some minor clutch work to be started on Monday but I don't think these were fitted at the time as they drove the vehicle away with the keys.

Am delighted to say that as a direct consequence of the owner posting the theft on LandyWatch, this truck has been recovered. Very Happy Very Happy

Full LW thread here but cutting to chase, what appears to be a non LR owner, spotted the truck suspiciously parked up, googled the VRN, found the LandyWatch post, and contacted the owner through the forum. Police contacted and truck recovered, albeit missing a few bits, but recovered nonetheless. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Hoping the local plod go on to catch the theiving feckers, who turned over the workshop too to the tune of around £80k's worth of kit in addition to the 90.

A small victory I guess but it's great to see the efforts rewarded Thumbs Up Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

Do we know if this one was stolen with the keys? From what's been reported I get the impression it had the misfortune to be at a garage/workshop premises when the premises were done over, rather than being specifically targetted.
