Maybe he forgot to renew his comprehensive insurance policy.

It was probably a dealer thinking it had been left for a recall. :

It's always the battle between 'someone is trying to nick my ****' and 'oh well insurance has it covered'. Although you can forget those without comprehensive cover.

I don't think in a normal state of mind I would bother to try to but after a few beers it might be a different story. By the way when I say after a few beers I'm not talking about being car jacked, I'm talking about it being nicked out the front not cruising around after a few. I have a double lock up so not a likely scenario for me

Provided he had insurance, that thief was doing him a favour.

Are you sure it wasn't being repossessed.
