You still need to check the details belong to the vehicle you are looking at. If they don't, it is of no use.
Imagine having a heritage fleet without installing several concealed trackers.
Only JLR's fuckwit management could manage that.
What timing! A guest just turned up at one of the holiday cottages my wife looks after,chap has a Range Rover. He got out of his lovely car and I kid you not he chained it to a lamp post just like you would a bicycle 😂. I'll have to get a picture tomorrow!
No way lol . That’s brilliant lol 🙃😁
🤣🤣🤣
What! You mean they didn't even remove the seats and front wheel then front wheels chained through the back wheels....I guess don't bother going tomorrow....the local scrote with an angle grinder [stolen from B&Q] will have it away tonight
I call that a sensible LR owner.
Smart bloke. Don't rely on BS electronic shoite, invest in na proper fkn chain and padlock, can't be hacked. Except with an angle grinder.
There are rumours that Land Rover have reported it stolen and dismantled it themselves, to help a little with their dire parts supply situation.
Winner😂
😂
I like this theory.
However that would be fraud?
I am a postman of 45 years, but when I first started at Royal Mail one of my round/walks included delivering to Edgbaston Golf Club One day I arrived to deliver the mail and found 4 Volkswagen cars which had been bought there to promote the vehicles they were left over night and all the wheels were stolen and they were left on bricks, those they couldn't get off they slashed the tyres.
The reason no heard of this is because JLR swept it under the carpet through embarrassment, another Land Rover Stolen vehicle description:- a very rare, low mileage, a Heritage example. Could it get any worse for Land Rover?
One of two things, it is already broken for parts or it is on its way to West Africa. Sad end
It's on a ship now .
Funny, I put exactly the same before I'd seen your comment...
Some years ago someone told me that JLR had to step up security as Range Rovers where being stolen from their factory parking yard for new motors.
The wife worked at JLR Solihull years ago & was told many stories of dodgy workers smuggling a multitude of spare parts past security.she worked nights & on more than one occasion whole cars were driven out never to be seen again.
@@GrantHarvey-tx9sl loads of new land rovers and range rover have been nicked over the years from the solihull site, first they would drive them up and over the grass banks, then they put fencing up to stop that.
Then they used to use the first land rover to ram the barriers out the way to get the other nicked cars out.
They had whole trucks nicked full of engines
This happened at Longbridge with Mini's they were just being driven out of the gate by waving at the security men!
funny that you mention this but in 2019 i was getting training as a trucker to deliver parts to JLR plant. they stepped up security after somebody just drove away with a whole lorry full of engines!
@@SoulTouchMusic93 that was one of a few trucks which went missing around that date
This is odd because land rovers are normally so difficult to steal. Perhaps it was aliens!
And the keys must have been in it?
Or Big foot or big cats or.....
Whilst I was working for a holiday camp in Dawlish Warren, Devon. I was curious that someone had parked a classic Maserati with a foot of its bonnet in the hedge that surrounds the car park and it stayed there not moving for three days.
I decided to call the police as I expected it had been stolen and was parked there just in case it had a tracker on it. The police were happy to here the news and popped straight down to see it.
The story goes that the owner had had it shipped down to a dealers in Exeter to be serviced and the driver had just left the keys on the reception desk. A dodgey person took the keys and drove off in the car and obviously decided to hide it in the out of the way car park.
If they had not parked it so badly I would not have thought much about it and would not have phoned the police ha ha ha.
Great story Billie.
What scumbags ...
Still the driver shouldn't have left the keys in a vulnerable position...
@@stuartd9741 The driver was the lorry driver who was hired to take the car on a flat bed to the dealers for service NOT the owner, but yes I agree the dozy truck driver was to blame. The kicker was that the owner spoke with his insurance company who said that the car's age would mean who would not get much back for it. When this car was immaculate almost as new with very few miles on the clock. I expect the owner will drive it to the dealers themselves next time ha ha.
@@billienomates1606 It's shocking just can't trust people today to do a proper job.
..
If I was delivering a vehicle, I'd personally hand over the keys to a member of dealer staff.
That way if anything happens it's down to the dealership.
..
It's true, a cherished car is sometimes priceless or has sentimental value..
Have sympathy for the owner.
I live in Northampton that made me chuckle. 😂 There's a travellers site in Billing. Always them.
You could not make this up. Great detective work Geoff. 😅❤
You would have thought that the value of the display cars would warrant paying for security; but the company has little regard for its customers so I’m not surprised that incompetence spreads to this.
And the keys must have been in it???
@@stuartd9741 either the keys stolen from someone on the stand - or as it's a soft top someone just climbed in and accessed the ODBII port, unfortunately it's easy to clone a key with the right (wrong, naughty) kit.
I was at the show and have the car in the background of a (bad) photo at 11.21am on the 29th. I had to go through my deleted photos from the show to find it!
(Shame Geoff says in the video that the 29th is Sunday - the 29th was Saturday and the show continued until Sunday 30th.)
@@wickmesh
Is it possible, the svx being a development vehicle, may not have had a steering lock or indeed a key start.
Just a button start?
A lot of commenters r saying, it's an inside job - hence the secrecy/lack of publicity....
@@stuartd9741 It wasn't a development vehicle. Just a low mileage example of a short run (300 vehicles) special edition, based on a standard car - so should have had an ignition key.
Hi everyone, it was actually on the Saturday it was stolen the heritage guys left it went back to there hotel in there 2 other landrovers and left that one behind we alerted security as we witnessed 4 Irish traveller types hovering around it and within seconds and drove it off with no issues straight out the gate when we spoke to the heritage guys the next day didn't seem bothered and said it didn't have s tracker fitted either , no wonder they didn't want people to know
This makes sense now - we attended the show on the Sunday and were given a hand written card with our reg number which we had to show on exit. This was a security measure to show that it was your car - seemed functional but very crude at the time. Now knowing this had happened on the Saturday, it must have been a hastily arranged attempt to prevent any others from “slipping out”
I wonder if the JLR event manager still has a job. Its probably in Albainia by now.
Or Russia, or Africa
@@bentullett6068 Nah it's in the UK on a cloned number...😮
@johnathanpearson3203 it should to be easy to spot then, but saying that the police don't do their jobs properly anymore.
I have only ever seen this SVX when they brought it out and one customer owned one in Malta.
Probably parked behind one of the many barber shops, police never going to look there.
I think it’s time JLR did something about their ignition locks and immobilisers so that fellow JLR owners can get cheaper insurance premiums. My 2007 L322 premium has doubled this year from last years premium.
Oh no 🙉
Marketplace & Autotrader’s crashed.
😂
My I-phone overheats at this time of year if in direct sunlight. Keep it in the shade. That sorts the problem. Mounting it in a car where it gets the sun directly on it will cause it to overheat & shut down. The phone also makes some heat when in operation.
My android never shut down from overheating but then it's plastic and has a liquid cooled SOC. You could mount it over an air vent with air con.
That’s bloody hilarious 😂😂🤣🤣
Remember when Wheeler Dealers had a trailer and car stolen? That was down the road from me lol
username checks out.... 😄
Yea it was a very rare Fiesta
@@keithvers569 if i remember correctly someone else's van or trailer went missing from same premier inn a few weeks later...
@@WheelhomeWanderer I don’t know, I saw Mike Brewer expressing his hurt and dismay at the loss of the Fiesta tho. Sadly the police in this country are now useless. There should have been checks at all borders as I suspect it’s out of the country by now
@@keithvers569They do checks at the border. The problem is it’s practically impossible to check every single container. Most go unchecked.
Don't forget digital number plates will come out soon. They change colour if your not insured mot'd or taxed and can be tracked.
where are you reading this from?! scary
I refuse I’ll keep the original dealer plates
Dnt be silly ,you'd just paint it og coulour ,
Regrettably this is true but are in trial stages only at the moment. We all know what happens to trials, they become the reality so may as well just microchip us now get it over & done with.
I believe that the plan is to microchip the population eventually. Most likely to be sold to us in the usual way. Its for our safety.
@GrantHarvey-tx9sl
A stolen Landrover? somebody must have had a spare set of lollipop sticks (keys).
2:21. My bricklayer friend had one of these, he would get it covered in cement and pug at work then at the end of the day dip it in a bucket of water and use a scrubbing brush to clean the phone before going home the same as his brick laying tools tools.
a new day..... a new rabbit hole 🤣great find and follow up thanks Geoff, it could even be a inside job as JLR might not even exist over the next 3 years.... maybe a bit like a service bonus for a high ranking member of staff or something but thanks for keeping us informed as the mainstream media prefers to pick and choose what they report on nowadays
CAR VERTICAL? GEOFF NO. HAVE YOU SEEN HOW MUCH THEY ARE CHARGING PEOOLE FOR A CHECK THAT COST £5.99
extreme temperature? it's only been sunny half a day! 😃
Welcome to...
a. Britain
b. Geoff's useless phone
Sunny half a day? It's a Climate Emergency!
I'm sure the SRM will be improved tomorrow for a uniform grey sky.
@GeoffBuysCars Geoff do you know if the guy that got all the classic minis knocked if he got them back mot heard a peep ,5 cars ,
If you follow the likes of Sky News, anything above 19 degrees Celsius seems to be considered an extreme temperature these days.
They should be able to track it. 😂
buy a tesla !! lol
Not if it's in a container going to its new owner,the president of Africa's safari group
I saw LR58 SVX yesterday! Jumping sand dunes in Dubai, fully sic it was!
I thought cars of that vintage and expensive would have had a Vehicle tracker fitted!
Marc In Bletchley
That land rover is stripped down in a container en route to Ghana
sure its was at billing around 7 or 8 years ago a high spec modded JDM car was stolen driving out or the show ground was found though can not remember all he details just remember all the stuff on retrorides about it
i still use a nokia 3310.....bliss
Sure mine gave me ear infection and then left with tinnitus after
Not the first time JLR have had stuff stollen at Billing. One year they left a G4 on their stand overnight and the next morning, the kayaks and bikes had gone missing from the roof rack. Also never recovered.
Happened to Wheeler Dealers, if I remember right a mk 1 Escort was stolen from a trailer outside their hotel, Mike and Elvis were stunned. A friend of mine once went to a newsagents in Liverpool on his bike, he chained it to a lamp post outside, went in the shop and bought his papers. When he came out his bike had gone and in it's place was an old bike frame chained to the lamp post with his own chain.
Fiesta Mk1
@@andyholmes7542 🤣 Thanks mate, so I didn't remember it right lol?
Unbelievable !!🙄🙄 clown planet of note🤦♀️
Next Vlog has Geoffs new deerstalker hat and curly pipe in attendance. 🔍🧐🤭🇬🇧
Investigations with Geoff!!! And I'll change my title of Ms to Dr 🤣🤪
Maybe they need the insurance payout 🤔
You can’t expect a police force that thinks ‘an Land Rover event’ is correct English to be capable of finding a stolen vehicle let alone anything else !
Someone did the same with a Jag XJ 220 many years ago. They knew the start sequence, it was on a plinth at an event. They walked up got in, started it, and got as far as the gate before someone realised that they were stealing it. Fortunately they were stopped.
If you wear a hi-vis vest at an event, it's amazing what you can get away with. For instance, did you know that showground staff get free coffee and bacon rolls all day from the catering vans? Well, you do now. The £6.99 vests (available at Halfords) soon pay for themselves. Or so I'm told.
@matthewgodwin3050 I bet you smoke cigars and say "I love it when a plan comes together "!😂
@matthewgodwin3050
I Iike your thinking..
Shall Invest in high visibility clothing and purchase a clipboard too..no stopping me now...
It's just hilarious, you couldn't make this up😂😂 well spotted Geoff ❤
I did sub contracting at Solihull for a while and there were rumours of many defenders just being driven out the gate in convoys never to be seen again
it wasnt a rumour, I remember it happening, at one stage it was almost every weekend
Well that explains the high prices
Great catch Geoff, thats an amazing story. U brong is the best information!!😮
This is pure gold😂 I can't believe by chance that you stumbled across this.
I am honestly that anal sometimes. When I get obsessed with a subject there’s no stopping me!
@@GeoffBuysCars pegging?
woopsie...
i wonder if it was insured through the landrover scheme..
will they loose their NCD...
my nokia is working just fine, fiver a month contract...
Geoff, if you wanted cheap landy spares, you shoulda 📞 called me 😅
I was at Billing. The security told me they put the camping field into lockdown once they knew 🪕
Oh, the irony!
'Billing Off' sounds quite appropriate then, JLR will be 'billing off' another car off their lineup lol
Hi Geoff, as a resident of Northamptonshire, can I point out that we pronounce Houghton as 'Howton'
Tell him about Cogenhoe too 😊
@@EricThomasHunterSweetlandDon't forget Brafield! 😂
It's already been put in a container and shipped out of the country probably to West African Container port for movement around the African continent.
The reason JLR want say anything is it shows how poor there security is on there vehicles hence reason insurance is expensive if you can get it.
The law should be changed to have GPS Trackers with cloud based movement logs fitted in all new vehicles in the UK with older vehicles being able to be retro fitted
And this is why that "Politically Correct" classic car magazine didn't feature you in their "favourite UA-camrs" article... Your investigative journalism puts their miserable rag to shame.
Funny isn’t it? No magazines have shared the stolen Land Rover. I think there’s a JLR gag order.
For a ‘miserable rag’ you sound pretty upset that Geoff wasn’t in it
someone walked up to the stand and said " im here to pick the car up " and someone just handed them the keys !
You couldn't make this shit up
even I couldn't...! however I do really want this Land Rover, but I don't need the roll cage around the front. Gimme the rollover bars at the back, but not around the cab and windscreen.
@@GeoffBuysCars Cab and windscreen is exactly where you need them. Defenders (and everything earlier) are not good in roll over accidents; they're weak above the waist line. A hoop behind the passenger compartment is better than nothing - but can only do so much.
I didn't even read it in the local rag (Northampton chronicle & Echo)
Ooopps ! I wonder which container ship it is on ? Haha
Hi Geoff from Australia. Love you rocking the Quicksilver shirt! They are made down the road in Torquay.
Spent many a happy summer in Billing 😊
That's nuts Geoffrey. Great tale.
Great detective work Geoff 👍
Next lotuseaters segment should be like this. Good to see you there i still am sceptical about AI. But i like the AI memes.
Problem is, lotus eaters aren’t car guys!
So, when the Land Rover Stand Supervisor was happy with the placement of LR58 SVX on the stand, he took the keys out and put them....he did take the keys out, didn't he?
It's a Land Rover.. keys are optional.
Keys must have been in it?
I heard some 6r4 rally cars were stolen, brand new
That could be possibly the best paid YT video I've ever watched.
THANK YOU!
Hey Geoff, how can the NewBritish manage to insure a RangeRover? Apparently one of the guests on the BibbyStockholm has bought one!
Investigative journalism at its finest Geoff, u rock. I had to watch this three times to have it sink in how incredibly embarrassing this is for LR. Rumour I heard, it was an inside job since LR bonuses have been cut.😊😊😊
That might explain the secrecy.
You can't make it up..... Common sense has disappeared like the car.... WHY was the car left in a field overnight. Surely land rover could of paid out for a truck to trailer this back to Solihull headquarters. You couldn't make it up, even if you tried
if you met landrover management you wouldnt be suprised at all 🤣
It wasn't 'left overnight' - read and listen. It was stolen between 5pm and 5:30pm.
@@physeptone8629 still doesn't answer why the vehicle couldn't of been loaded straight onto a trailer after the show...
Reminds me of the wheeler dealer MK1 fiesta that went missing from outside their workshop
Never to be seen again
Not from outside their workshop
It was in a covered trailer behind a four wheel drive in a hotel car park ,entrance route to a show
Places that are targeted by criminals all the time
The trailer was not fitted with a tracker, rather stupidly given the value of the trailer alone
A certain demographic seem to be involved in this type of crime
SWEEEEEET!!! Cool Geoff... GGG!!!
Mmm.. big landy show... sure the sluths who search high and low for there perfect landrover might find it but its probably in parts by now flat-packed... 😔.. stay safe 🏴
Obviously, as it is such a rare vehicle, it's fitted with a multitide of trackers? Isn’t it?
I have a couple of those phones! 😂
This is hilarious. Thanks for the laugh this morning Geoff. 😃😃
It can't have gone too far…….it is a Land Rover.
Wow 😮
Land-Rovers can do more mileage a year just going up and down the ramps for repairs....
Advetura phone was ripped and cloaked from nokia 5210's rubberised and roBUST casing....I kid you not...
Great accidental stumbling Geoff. 😂
They've lost hundreds of range rovers and denied it was an issue, so they're not going to admit they've a land rover aswell 😂😂😂😂
Excellent !😂 Oh yes, and it’s pronounced Little Howton not Little Horton. There actually is a Little Horton a few miles from the Little Houghton that you are referring to. Just so’s locals are not confused …
Imagine having to rely on MSM or the Northampton Herald to read about this… 100x more enjoyable piece thank you.
Try South Africa
aaai jong, maar ten minste is daar koppies daar😂😂🇿🇦🇿🇦
Go watch bald n bankrupt
Just seen one of these in a left hand drive in Tenerife, very nice
Its in a container, going on holiday to another country.
One for you Geoff Land Rover is part of Tarta steel
Interesting, I also looked it up and it is only listed on a neighbourhood watch style site with info apparently from local police. Understandably it is on a SORN, so presumably trailered to the event.
Brilliant!! gotta have some balls to do that.... where was Jason Statham and Vin Diesel during this time?
Cool story, Geoff.
Embarrassment they feel dam stupid.
In the U.S., the 'car vertical' program is 'CarFax'.
I live in Northern Ireland UK, gosh, England looks to be such a dangerous place.
Every year cars, parts or vehicles are stripped at billing.
One of reasons I don't go as it's too risky leaving your vehicle there.
Is it an insurance job?
remember when they made things poeple wanted what a concept
50p says it was driven away using the keys. I know they're not exactly secure but a transit defender is a bit more robust than an older model where you'd only need a chip fork.
Can't believe they didn't have 24hr security...🤦♂️
I used to own an S1 phone, as I was working in Construction. A total rubbish phone, even back then!
It's in the Ukraine
In a container on its way by sea to Saudi I expect.
Don't worry as reliable as they are it won't be very far 😂😂
Guaranteed someone’s got some footage of this leaving the show 😬
