P.S. A WORD OF ADVICE
IF YOU HAVE YOUR VEHICLE STOLEN, RECOVERY CHARGES ARE PAYABLE EVEN IF IT IS A VERY SMALL MOPED. £105 PLUS £105 TO BRING IT TO YOU IF YOU CANT FETCH IT, AND £12 PER DAY STORAGE IF ANY DELAY, FROM THE GARAGE. OUR SON(16 YEAR OLD) HAD A MOPED THAT WAS NOT INSURED AGAINST THEFT AS A CHEAP SECOND HAND ONE,IT STOLEN AND FOUND AND REPORTED BY A KIND MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC. WE WERE TOLD AFTER IT HAD BEEN TAKEN TO A GARAGE MILES AWAY, NO CHANCE TO FETCH IT FROM WHERE IT WAS FOUND, HAD TO PAY THESE CHARGES OR HAVE A CIVIL CLAIM AGAINST HIM, AND LOSE OWNERSHIP OF THE BIKE.
VICTIM OF CRIME BECOMES THE VICTIM.
