Vehicle recovery specialist Richard is on the trail of a caravan that’s been stolen during a late-night raid on a site in Nottingham.

Vehicle recovery specialist Richard is on the trail of a caravan that’s been stolen during a late-night raid on a site in Nottingham. But the thieves have hidden it well, and he’s struggling to find it before a police rural crime team send up a drone to give him a bird’s eye view of the area.

Around 4,000 caravans and motorhomes are stolen every year. Nicola, from Stourbridge in the West Midlands, describes how thieves stole her caravan, not knowing it was fitted with a tracking device. A police helicopter was deployed, and the stolen van was tracked as it travelled up the M6 for about 30 miles. Eventually, it was recovered in Cheshire. Nicola is convinced that, without the tracker, she’d never have seen it again.

Meanwhile, tracker Joe is also in the West Midlands, closing in on a stolen Range Rover. He finds it in a workshop where it’s in the process of being dismantled for parts. A suspect is arrested, but the car is a total write-off.
