	Crystal Blue Sapphire Cosworth reg E174JJN was stolen along with a white 2014 Transit Custom van & a Brian James trailer from a Hilton hotel in Doncaster in the early hours of Sunday 9th July 2023. The car is Crystal blue & has clear front indicators & side repeaters & smoked rear light clusters. The Ford badge in the front grille is faded/white & the headlight wipers & front fog lights have been removed. The boot has been debadged & has a white surround on the boot lock. The rear bumper is black in colour. The Transit is on Irish plates as the car had just been picked up by it's new owner & was heading to Ireland. The car was stolen by 3 masked men who rammed the barrier of the hotel car park before stealing the Transit, Cosworth & the trailer it was sat on.

	The owner has posted a video giving an update. It was 4 armed men that walked in and took the van, they drove straight through the barrier. So, the van/trailer/car were taken to a travler site in doncaster & the police wouldnt go in to get them. The trailer & cosworth were "sold" and tracked/seen heading back down the M1/A1 towards London, being towed by a Audi A4 but the police wouldnt do anything as they didnt have the reg number. The cosworth was covered by a tarp, good chance thats been dumped somewhere down south.

I recently bought another Ford and the guy delivering it told me he’d have to park up and sleep somewhere with the car on the back due to his tachometer. Reminded me of this thread and gave me the fear. Luckily it arrived safely.

Dunno seems an odd theft tbh hope the owner gets it back
