called in to see my mum earlier this week for the first time in a while. Foudn out that she'd had her car stolen.
She'd driven out of the garage, got out of the car to shut the garage door and by the time she'd turned roudn the car was being driven away.
It was found the following morning with no damage, less than a mile from her home.
So who would steal a cityrover?
PS, I had no choice in the car, I even did my utmost to prevent her buyign it!

Any yobbo who either fancied a joyride or would otherwise have had to walk home. Unfortunately there's a lot of it about. The penalty ought to be to have one of their hands cut off.

Someone who wanted to test drive one and recognised pretty quickly it wasn't for them?

She was lucky, if she hadn't got the car back, the insurance wouldn't have paid out.
Must have been quite unsettling, hope she's ok and won't leave car running in drive.

The neigbours probably clubbed together to get it removed.

James May doing another discrete test drive for Top Gear?

Opportunist thief saw his opportunity, grabbed it in a look-before-you-leap sort of way, then realised what he had taken, and couldn't get out of it fast enough?
|
Someone who had read how awful they are but just wanted to decide for themselves. If anyone else is wondering, please don't do it. They are ever bit as rubbish as you read, truly appalling and a disgrace to the Rover badge.

Went to the Pug dealer today to buy bits for the new 406...
They had a 1007 parked there and I looked it up and down and thought "Damn that's a piece of carp." Next to it was an 04 CityRover for £4,995, presumably to make the 1007 look good. Not even the CityRover is that bad though.
|
The only 1007s that I have seen on the road have had dealer decals down the side - interesting to see how well they are selling to the public, as opposed to how many have been registered?
Think they are a good novelty idea but a few grand cheaper and they might sell.

Motorpoint are selling new (in a fairly loose sense of the word) ones for £3999!
