'You put trust and pay a lot of money to park there'
A company director's sunny holiday has been ruined after his £105,000 Range Rover was stolen from an airport car park.
Mr Powell said the situation had been a "nightmare", adding: "If I left the car in any old car park I wouldn't be crying about it, but then I leave it with the official car park that is why I'm upset." Police have since told him the car's keys were cloned and it was last tracked to a street in the Isle of Dogs, East London before the tracker was removed by the thieves.
Before jetting off on holiday, Mr Powell dropped his car off at about 5.30am where he said he had to hand the car park operators his key for safekeeping. A day later, the tracker for the car, which is installed by Land Rover, subsequently notified him that it may have been stolen. The email adds: "We have placed a marker on the vehicle so if it is driven on the correct index plates it will activate the ANPR camera system which will then give any police force in England and Wales a location, at this time there have been no ANPR hits. It is possible that the thieves have deactivated the tracker or already shipped it abroad and therefore preventing any attempt to retrieve it.
