Essex Police has recovered six (6) stolen luxury cars worth over $1 million dollars during a warrant carried out by its Stolen Vehicle Intelligence Unit (SVIU) led teams from the Operational Policing Command.
During the warrant, the specialist unit found a Mercedes-AMG GT valued at £40,000 alongside a Range Rover Vogue. A Jeep Wrangler and a Toyota Alphard were also found in two storage containers.
In addition, an Aston Martin DB11 valued at £70,000 and Rolls-Royce Cullinan SUV worth £250,000 were also recovered during the warrant – the latter was found 24 hours after it was stolen.
All the six recovered luxury vehicles, stolen from addresses in Essex and London, were intact, according to the force. The specialist unit says it recovered more than 700 stolen vehicles last year.
Chief Inspector Dan McHugh said :
“Our initial enquires estimate almost £1m worth of cars may have gone through this site and the Rolls Royce was recovered just 24 hours after it was stolen,” he added.
“Our work doesn’t end now we’ve found the cars, we’ll continue to investigate to identify and arrest those responsible for the thefts and reunite the vehicles with their owners.”
“Our SVIU play an important role in leading the force’s response to tackle this type of crime. They regularly seize stolen cars within hours of them being taken, examine them and use that intelligence to locate other missing vehicles.”
