As posted on the stolen land rovers forum, my 110 XS was stolen this weekend. Registered YB65XTY and in Aintree green. Spread the word. These spineless people are finding our Land Rovers anywhere and everywhere, and yours isn't safe! Pray you are not the next victim of this despicable raft of thefts.

Sorry, to hear about that Tom!

I'll forward to a few of my friends up in WY to keep an eye out!

Have a look around Illingworth and on Ogden Moor!
I take it that the police have been informed??

My thoughts go out to you. These thefts go on day by day, and it's not something that can be stopped.

Feel gut sick for you. I bet that Landy was a thing of beauty. I hope you get it back unharmed.

A lot of people join to post in the "Stolen" section then disappear.
l imagine they go online and post everywhere.

Do they ever bother to tell us if they got their Landies back, or do we just keep on looking?

Still here folks. Sorry not to thank you for your support over this theft, but I've spent a long time this week posting on various sites, not to mention driving around West Yorkshire in the hope of finding the Land Rover. I suspect there's no hope, and it'll be in bits by now, or on a ship to another country. All I found was the smashed ignition barrel in the undergrowth where it had been parked, proving they certainly don't need a key to start them.
It's sickening. This vehicle was my prize possession; something I'd always wanted, saved hard for etc. And then some b**tards nick it. Worthless scum.
I will of course keep you updated if it gets recovered.

Whereabouts in the West Riding are you?
Then the search can be targeted ... especially if you give us a clue what she looks like!
What chance do we have when all we have to go on is that she's a 110 XS, (whatever that is) with Reg No YB65XTY and she's painted in Aintree green, which most of us would not be able to identify as she's 'green'!
