The Cortina was always an easy car to steal. I hope they have just decided to pop the lock and used it to get home and have left it in good order nearby.

Everything crossed for a speedy return.

It would appear that they've done the locks as there wasn't the tell tale glass on the floor, unless theives now carry dustpans and brushes!!!!
Still they wouldn't have got too far as there wasn't much fuel in.

Hate to sound the profit of doom but round here we've had a few cases of older cars going walkies off driveways, coincidentally I had a guy ask me about my mig yesterday as I was working on it. I believe they look for cars on drives with expired tax discs and then come in with a spectacle lift, probably assuming that a lot of people won't bother reporting it as it's obviously broken etc.

Hopefuly they knew that they are dead easy to get into with a coat hanger or a narrow piece of hardboard.

Fingers crossed

Indeed - fingers crossed you get it back!

(And find the thieves so you can set about them with a blowtorch and a pair of pliers)

That is very bad news indeed!! :'( :'( :'(

A classic like that is going to be easy to spot one hopes, and as the Cortina always was an easy car to get into and start without keys (or with vitually any key!!) it has probably been nicked to just get someone home! ::) ::) ::)

The police should have no trouble spotting it ;)
