$3.75 Million in Engines Was Stolen From a Jaguar Land Rover Factory...in 6 Minutes

$3.75 Million in Engines Was Stolen From a Jaguar Land Rover Factory...in 6 Minutes

Quote:
The thieves entered the facility through a security-manned gate, connected their truck to a trailer that was holding the engines, and drove out, the Birmingham Mail writes. The whole event took place in just six minutes.
It is believed that the same truck came back later in the night, hooked up to another trailer filled with engines, and made off with more valuable car parts.*


Ill bet an intake manifold they find out this was an inside job.

Some guys in my high school broke into a railroad boxcar parked at the GM plant ans stole a bunch of 4 speeds. Very valuable back then. They got caught and had to pay back GM.

3. Its in England.

I didn't read.... it's Range Rover.

Shouldn't be too hard to find, drive down the road and see the broke down car. Heist solved.
