Ferrari thefts in London

Does the tracker issue apply also to the latest generation of cars? Like Roma, SF90, 296?

 

Scorpiontrack has a Ferrari Owners Club deal for a tracker, much less expensive than the vodafone subscription. Had one installed on my california last week.

I presume the buyers also accept not to resell their cars in the future as RHD would raise eyebrows.
And forget about sending them back to the UK due to blacklisting.

 

Why would they steal RHD cars that aren't on the continent?

Russia is LHD.
Surely easier to steal from Germany/Czech etc and ship by road?

Seems very stupid to me

 

maybe it's just for parts

 

I agree with some of the lhd and rhd comments. Doesn't make any sense.

But definitely sucks no matter what.

 

Heartbreaking

 

Who's your insurer?

 

Another 812 gone in London apparently - seems very model specific.

Security flaw from data breach incident - if so someone should be releasing that although they would battle not to one suspects.

Anyone any further info?

 

My GTC4 Lusso was stolen last month from Q-Park on Kinnerton Street, London SW1. The CCTV shows the thieves walking to the car park with a computer and driving out 3 minutes later. They simply raised the barrier manually.

The Police have been useless and Q-Park have denied any responsibility. They even made it difficult to get the CCTV!

Aviva my insurers have denied the claim, as they are arguing the tracker was not paid up, yet it was working at the time! In the meantime they have doubled my insurance.

Several Ferrari have been stolen and there thefts are continuing, there was another Ferrari stolen in Mayfair this week. The fact is the thieves have the code for the keyless locks.

London has become a dangerous city. I collect Ferrari's and have had to put them all into long term storage and am considering selling my collection.

Very sad to have to live this was but we have a terrible Mayor and a useless, untrustworthy Police Force.

 

Very sorry to hear this. My cars are stored not far away from there, although they are older cars and it seems the thieves are targeting newer Ferraris.

Surely straightforward to prove your tracker was paid up to date? Shocking that the insurance are claiming otherwise.

Police in London are not interested in investigating actual crime. I could start a thread here claiming I stole your car, providing clear evidence, and nobody would care or investigate. But if I posted a thought supporting one currently unfashionable side in today"s gender culture wars I would be tracked down and arrested, and I do not exaggerate, it has happened more than once. It starts with the academy training curriculum.

 

Shocking, curious where these cars are actually ending up

 

sounds like a bad faith lawsuit is coming against them. I’m in the US… but I’ve never seen a policy contingent on a tracking device for validity.

 

Quite common in the UK with higher value cars.

 

Yes, they can sell even more cars.

I love your sense of humor.

 

I'm sure the cars are being parted out. They are worth more as parts than a whole car that nobody can bring in for service.
