A 1966 Datsun P411 NAB 850D believed to be the only example in Europe was stolen on Saturday, but thanks to the publicity surrounding the theft it has been found. Police believe the car was stolen for banger racing and are investigating several leads. The car is still with police while scene of crime officers (SOCO) look for fingerprints and dna. The police believe that the perpetrators lost their nerve following publicity in the Classic Car and local press. Mr Bickle told us 'I am relieved to get the car back, especially as it is virtually undamaged barring a shredded tyre. I reckon I've had a lucky escape.' The rare car was imported from Australia in 2007 and is believed to be the only example in the UK, if not Europe. PC advises anyone who owns a classic car that could be popular with banger racers to fit a tracking device. While most people who participate in oval racing are law abiding, a criminal element in banger racing has been identified and are known to the authorities. Inexpensive to purchase and run 'Pay as you go' tracking devices are now widely available and it's far better to be safe than sorry. Even a simple tracking device can help police locate your car before it's too late. Words: Neil Campbell Pictures: Nigel Bickle |
