If they had done their homework and read Fresh Goods Friday they would have realised what they were up against. ๐Ÿ™‚

I imagine the ram raiders looked in, saw a pair of bombers then soon scarpered in a cloud of tyre smoke

(If Jamie could PS a pair of bombers on to that pic of Chipps ^)

Apparently the car used was an Audi estate.
So at least they were conforming with type - no-one would suspect them if they loaded a couple of Orange 5's onto the roof and drove off.

Did Chipps have some bombers by his desk as part of the late not working policy in case of such incidents I wonder?

A ram raid! Retro! I knew STW was full of refugees from the 90s but I didn't think they took it this far.

Was it definitely not just an elderly driver parking an automatic?

If I was a ram raider I'd probably have 'borrowed' someone else's car for economic and police knocking on my door type reasons

Exactly! So why risk stealing a car to steal some bikes. Why not just steal a more expensive car? only one crime, and half the chance of getting caught.

Maybe they would use the bikes to rob a bank...?

And the money from the bank job can be used to set up a multinational conglomerate.....

Mwa haaaaa haaaa..

Except selling a stolen car is nigh on impossible unless you export it or break it for parts.

You've got to steal some bikes so you can do a ride-by handbag grab. Why not just sell the bike you ask, as it'll be worth more than the handbag? Well, you need the handbag for your disguise for your art gallery heist. Why not just buy a handbag? STYLE.
