Posted from another site: Please can you keep an eye out for this Mk1 Escort RS2000. It's a well known car & often does the RSOC "Lakes Tour". It was stolen today from Nottingham & taken away on a car trailer. It was last seen on the A46. Someone got a photo of it being towed by a silver car, possibly a VW Passat. Thank you.

There's a specific board for stolen stuff on here, be worth someone moving it if possible? Also that photo isn't on the A46, it's on the A6097 near Newton, heading towards Gunthorpe bridge.

It's wise to post it here first. I bet few people ever browse the stolen forum.

The gall of some people, I just can't get my head around someone turning up with a trailer, stealing it, then happily driving off in broad daylight with it.

That is sickening.
A Mk1 Escort would certainly be an unlikely (and uncompetetive) choice for a banger racer. There is at least one racer who races stolen cars but that doesn't mean that all banger racers are responsible for all thefts of all old cars. WE certainly could do without these inflammatory comments every time a car gets stolen.
The horrible reality is that whatever happens to this car, it (or parts of it) will end up in the hands of an enthusiast. It saddens me that fellow 'enthusiasts' can be so unaware of the effects they have on the scene they share with decent people and would be part of this theft.
