Security Warning - Be Vigilant

[MikeGTI]

Well mines a 5-Door, but my mates in Manchester was a 3-Door I'm afraid.

I guess it depends on whether theres more than two of them needing to make a getaway

They aren't just stolen to be used as getaway cars though although I think they have realised there less likely to have trackers fitted than EVO's and Subaru's so are beginning to be used for that.

They're stolen to order to have its plates swapped with one someones crashed.
They're stolen to be shipped out the country to foreign buyers.
They're stripped for parts to sell onwards.

And for various other reasons.

Now that I think about it The GTI wouldn't make a good getaway car, 4 big blokes and a boot full of swag would make it about as fast as 2 litre mondeo.

But faster than a 2 litre Mondeo with 4 big blokes and a boot full of swag in it.
