    • @ianmacfarlane1241
      @ianmacfarlane1241 Рік тому +1

      The Ford Transit was heavily favoured by armed robbers in the past because it was surprisingly fast and controllable.
      That said, the Securicor van would have probably had some kind of protection, which, in turn, would have had a weight penalty.
      However, it might also be the case that the engine was more powerful than a standard Transit.

      ​​​@@09weenicNot true, Paul Mill served 13 years and Ryan Monks 14 years, the axe was never found, that was used to kill the gun shop owner, the event happened after the pair became fans of the Dirty Harry film, they needed the guns to carry out a hostage robbery and other various armed robberies. The person who called Crimewatch was a relative of of Monks ( Monks was his nephew ) that was how they got caught, the relative turned down the 12,000 pound reward money.
