If I have a garage full of cars, and one is missing (even if it's not mine) I'm going to question it. "Huh, did the person come by for their Lamborghini? Let me call and ask."
There's no way dude got that car collection being that daft. He was definitely in on it.
He probably did not notice because of all the other yellow VT's he stores for friends. Honest mistake.
That “dealer friend with storage facility” seems fishy af. I cant believe nobody questioned/suspected his ass to be responsible for this
love how ed is loving like every other comment except for these. that was my first thought is how’d they get the keys if they were left with the storage keeper
@@jacob07221 Why would he love speculation? That would put him in a very bad light.
This is why people that store cars need a ridiculous camera and security system
Yeah. It is far cheaper than a single car.
There are professional storage places . But I guess he wanted to save some money.
don't forget a ridiculous fire suppression system, thats ruined a lot of cars in storage in the past because of its lack of being there.
GPS tracker should be standard equipment. Surprised that insurance doesn't require it.
You'd be surprised how brazen they can be dude. I run a fleet business and we have the best security system you can get, 26 cameras all motion detected and a very heavy door that is rated to be able to take a ram from a huge truck.
Now I've never had a car stolen but..... Some dudes did come into my building and steal the HVAC aircon system, it is huge and they needee a Crain to get it into its position. These 4 dudes came in, in masks and carried it out. They did a professional job removing it too. When insurance covered the unit the installer was worried they would have wrecked all the piping etc but they did a good job blocked off everything that needed blocking off, shit off the power and removed the plugs properly etc 😂😂😂. So they had to have been aircon guys.
But even with the best security system there is all it will do is get footage of the crime most of the time, the alarm no one pays attention to those in industrial estates usually. So they just did it as fast as they could 3 and a half minutes from the time the backed in their truck to having on and driving away.
So even with those systems the best you can hope is they are dumb and have something in that footage that you get to give that to the cops.
The guy that owned the barn needs to pay up some funds for repairs because he took on the responsibility of the car and his word since he obviously was less than capable of holding this car he needs to help Alistair out!
not if he was storing the car for free
The car that wasn't his is the only one that goes missing and then he doesn't think to call when the car is gone. Sounds a bit strange.
Something not right here.
..
How stores a car like that but let's any rando come along to collect it.
Where is the ID check of the person collecting the car or phone call to Alistair for confirmation......
@@aliassmithandjones9453 ...that is irrelevant. the fact that the security of the vehicle was seriously compromised IS relevant
Why would the guy that robbed it openly take responsibility?
I know a guy with a classic 69 Charger Daytona, 68 Charger RT, and over a half million of other cars and parts. He keeps them in a windowless warehouse behind his house, complete with motion lights all around and a security system.
Seems to me this guy should've done something similar. With a car as valuable as this, you can't skimp out on security.
Dan krtnick?
@@superchargedautism7693 nope
If I had a garage full of super cars and offered to store one for someone, that someone or enyone wouldn't get within 5 foot of that garage without me knowing... There's no way you could just rock up and remove your car.
Yeah the dude obviously played a part in it disappearing. It was such a bad excuse. Then again what else do you say when you just gave their car to a loan shark to pay off a debt?
@@HyperVectra Either collusion or incompetence perhaps he didn't check on the cars as often as he should have
@@emgriffiths1861 Yeah thats how you become rich and own multiple supercars - being lazy, incompetent and too trusting of people. lol
And nobody suspected the “friend collector” the guy who was supposed to take care of those keys? That guy sold that car and handed keys over. The guy says “oh, I thought you came and got it”. Really? Wouldn’t you remember that? Guys are so gullible
For real lol
Yeah this is their biggest lead, how would any thief know to only steal the car that was being stored for someone else,
right?! hahaha Ah Brits are funny aren't they?
Absolutely the whole point of private storage is secrecy, he sold the car
I bet the keys were in or next to the car in that barn, I dont think he had the keys on him and just saw one day the lambo was gone and assumed it the owner took it since none of his cars were stolen.
Me and my friend were discussing this. We wonder if the car was stolen and put on fake plates and used on occasions. The person driving knew it was stolen but carried on. Then the car is stolen again, stripped for parts and then dumped. The person who had it stolen from them knew it was stolen so couldn't report it. Just an idea
It was on fake plates when new keys were made for it. There is a bit more info in the guys video on his YT channel
I have another theory. That collector let it be stolen or he stole it himself and then it got stolen. You'd think with anything entrusted to another person's care they would wanna know the location of that item in their care until the original owner got that item back. Grill that "collector".. That is my hunch as to what happened. No one should be that careless. Using the "I thought you picked the car up" is a lame excuse. No I want to know who has access to that place is there any security footage and I wanna check around that building for obvious means of forced entry. Was any other cars stolen? Etc. I smell a rat and that rat is that collector.
@@HankScorpio64 just another day on the job for you, eh Sherlock?
Not easy, a Yellow Diablo catches too much attention here in the UK
@@HankScorpio64 If it's not the collector it's someone that knows him well.
What are the chances that out of all the expensive cars in his garage the only one to go missing is the one that doesn't belong to him.
The thief would have had to disarm the alarm, unlock the garage, take that one car, then lock the garage back up and reset the alarm otherwise the collector would know someone has been there that shouldn't have been.
I have a garage with motorcycles in, in total not worth more than 5 grand yet even I have a cheap motion detecting camera that notifies me if anything in my garage moves.
I have a diablo VT engine cover, it’s grey and I’d be willing to give it away if you pay for shipping. I am in the United States so I don’t think it’s the one from your car but it’ll work
Awww Connor, what a kind person you are!
Great
Hope you get all the parts back, godspeed with getting this car back together.
That storage guy was clearly in on it. How does he hand the keys to some stranger, thinking it’s the owner?
It's never stated where the keys were. The storage guy seemed surprised the car was gone indicating he didn't give the keys away
@@caodesignworks2407key word is “seemed” there’s this thing people do, it’s called LYING!
@@VinceroAlpha whhaaat?! People lie? Holy shit dude, no fucking way? Insane that people do that
@@caodesignworks2407 yeah man, it’s a bad trait that literally everyone does! I know it’s a lot to take in but you gotta be careful about whom you trust!
So if Alistair was not handed the keys back the storage guy clearly handed them to someone else knowingly, sounds all a bit off to me the storage guy is clearly lying
This is a wild one!
How so? Fairly typical theft story.
This is exactly why you need to have airtags or other tracking devices hidden in cars like these no matter what. Making sure you're covered by insurance at all times is also essential. Playing a game of making something hard to steal is a game which is easy to lose.
This begs the question, when is vinwiki going to extend to the UK?
Ed please don't ever change your channel because of that cry baby CP. Keep telling the stories you want told regardless of what attention seekers cry about. Never allow C P to ever be on your channel again.
@blaakrose whT happened?
Ready buyer...as is!
Alistair is aware!😅
Obviously.
😂
I second this!
His collector / storage 'friend' is a crook. 🤣
How do people not have security cameras on cars this valuable?
Like many other precious things, if you don't possess it you don't own it. The other helpful hint, don't leave the keys!
If you buy gold, have it shipped to your house… and hide that 💩
They can move it around on skates. Never leave the keys!
Wow what an amazing story and an interesting turn around. I really do hope you get all the pieces back for the rebuild it would be something rather special indeed. Fingers crossed for you all
This was the first Lambo I ever saw in the streets (not necessarily this one) but it was yellow it was a Diablo and I was going to a minor league baseball game in pa in scranton and was it on interstate 81. Im 38 years old, and it was when I was about 14, maybe a year or so younger or older.
This is absolutely my dream car.
Good story.
this is such a sus story. Guy who kept the car thought he "picked it up"? nah that dude knew exactly what happened
100%
it is crazy how much info the friends collected while the police was struggeling in the investegation.
lol they weren't struggling, they just don't give a fuck
Sad to say uk cops are pretty useless at this sort of theft or just not interested. If it belonged to one of their own, they'd be all over the case and probably would have found it a lot quicker. Glad you got it back eventually even if parts were missing.
Why would they care about a car? Even something as special as this one, they have better things to worry about.
@@trevk8233 Yeah like wether or not you own a KNIFE.
is always the same, police is the most idiotic institution plenty of incompetent people, most of the time police are arrogant with decent people but with criminals they are like little lambs, I believe that the police did not lift a finger to help Alistair OUT OF ENVY
because international marxism has simply been poisoning the minds of common people against wealthy people for more than 60 years and the police participate in that with their minds washed by international marxism they refusing to help someone who has money.
I am so glad he got it back I wish you all the best in finding those VT parts and bring Y3LOW back!
That's one town over and I bet I know which garage it was found in
Message me
The parking location seems a bit suspect to me. Why no security cam footage? And why weren't the keys locked in a safe? Only to be used when necessary and with full video documentation when doing so? Before parking any car of mine worth hundreds of thousands of dollars somewhere, I would make sure the security protocol was commensurate with the value of the car... i.e., damn near militant! Best of luck with the (hopeful )recovery of the missing components! Cheers!
👆👆👆👆this 👏
This collector sounds shady as F..
..
looking after an expensive car and just let's a rando come along and take it ..
I live in yeovil and the old cattle market it was found at was abandoned and round the corner is a car wash so no cctv and across the road was the dodgey dealership in question nrj motors closed down December mysteriously and he moved it to that spot where it was found. Tbh no one has mentioned it in yeovil can't wait till the news gets out down here 😂
@@4331andrew Wow! At NRJ Cars (23 Market St, Yeovil BA20 1JG, United Kingdom)??? That looks like a built up area! That's where it was found? The photos/video shown here looks like it was somewhere else (I guess they didn't show any footage of where it was found).
Ed really needs to ask this guy some questions. Where were the keys that the owner dropped off for one...
@@JulianKapayes that's the address no it was where I said it was got a picture of my car there😅 knew exactly where it was from the sneak peak if u go on the petrol headanism youtube they have pt 4 up now they even used my evidence in the video😂 yeovil what a place all I can say
How on Earth could they have been so dense to let the “collector friend” guy off the hook? What do you mean he thought you already picked up the car? The guy was obviously lying. How’re you gonna tell me the Diablo was the only car stolen and all the other cars owned by this dude remained? It wasn’t theft, he sold it behind your back. Ridiculous.
In France they now have a law called SCHLABOUBVE, from next year you can only drive 5000 KM with a combustion engine.
Wonder if Lamborghini has a system where their most exclusive models have a maintenance program unlike McLaren? That could help a lot, because they might have the register of which VT were sold and exported to certain country, and which ones have been damaged or need spare parts. The other thing I can suggest is checking reports of crashed VTs and title changes. Even if the reports are aren't exact or confiable.
Damn, that really sucks. Chances are they parted it out internationally. I pray you find those parts.
So the collector is in on it, and Alastair screwed up by trusting someone who didn't have proper security
Im so sad for this, Im a lambirghini lover since I was a kid. Im still glad you guys found the car and hope to rebuild it back soon to this beautiful stated.
This is why our world is going to crap. People have no respect for anyone or their belongings.
FR, friend of mine has a Ferrari and three separate times someone has keyed the sides of it on a parking lot. Like people are so jealous that they go and destroy other peoples cars because they cant afford one.
@@carrotplox It’s sad but if you want to be hated and lose friends buy a nice car and be successful.
They never have. Nothing has changed. We just hear about everything in real time planet wide because of technology.
Car thefts are at an all time low, my guy. Were you around during the 90s?
Alistair seems like a really good guy, would love to see interviews with him- I bet he has tons of stories and wisdom to share. Thanks for sharing Ciro
The Guy who stored the car for him HOW could he hand over the keys and open his storage space to anyone else than the owner? Its not like you by mistake do that about a Diablo as rare as they get 🤣 He is no:1 suspect in my book!
Ok 3 questions:
1. Is Paul Rutter still a free man?
2. Did Alistair sue the hell out of him already?
3. Is Paul Rutter still a free man?
The Diablo VT6.0 has a special place in my heart. A friend of mine who unfortunately is no longer with us bought one of the 334 examples ever made brand new back in 2001. I will never forget when I saw her in person for the first time getting delivered to his home garage. Surreal experience. Family still has it safely stored since his passing. 2.900km since new, basically a NOS example. I will be able to afford one soon, I just wish prices don't skyrocket to silly levels until then.
I saw the stolen post when it happened and shared it to vinki then years later is found in a town less then 20 minutes from where i live. Madness!
Yeah same when he said yeovil I was like what?? 😂
You should get Guy Fieri on to talk about the wild case when someone stole his Gallardo
The owner of the property has something to do with it! It’s no way he wouldn’t know who took the car or when it was taken as it’s on his own property!
Man, I'm so glad the most important part of the car (engine) was still there. I hope you can the rest of the parts.
"I thought you came and collected it" Wasn't the car in a locked barn? wouldn't most people question why a (expensive) car isn't there anymore? Totally fishy.
Never trust your cars to others and doubles if your rich enough to own lambos. Additionally insurance in any car over 20k is always going to look for any out to not pay you. With insurance you pay for what you get read those policies in detail.
Definitely the guy storing the car knows a lot more than he’s telling. Cars don’t disappear by themselves.
People really are pieces of work. Another good story. I hope you find the parts
Can't wait for the updates on this.
Odd that this pops up today because I just got an alert for a video posted 5 days ago that the car was found and recovered
So glad Ali got his car back, it's a miracle it wasn't shipped off to somewhere in eastern Europe and never seen again.
As if the guy who was storing the car didn’t get done for this.
Yep amazing.
Suspect No1 until proven otherwise..
I wonder how he got all his supercars.. for sure on the up and up
Yeah, UK police did absolutely nothing when my car was stolen. Side note, met this guy at Petrolheadonism Live at Knebworth House, amazing car show and great guy
Should have taken the guy that stored the car to court. Ignorance is no defence, he was responsible for the car which means he let it get stolen and since insurance won't pay out, he should.
You are right. Under English Common Law, the Storer is a "Bailee for Reward" and can be sued. However it is an expensive process and the Storer may not be worth sueing. Lesson is If you put a car in storage check with your Insurers first.
@@amcn8425
This collector has. Few Ferraris have some capital?
..
Still agree this collector is prime suspect for sure...
Su the key was with the car as well not in a lock box or in the barn owners home. I know id I was storing a car for someone the keys would be in a locked container. He is lucky to get this back years ago a mechanic that was doing some work on a rare Alfa my dad got my mum vanished with the car and the police said it would be in a container on a boat, it was never seen again. Nirther was the mechanic.
I heard its now body kitted as an MR2.
I'd be looken to see if their was any rebuilt or freshly registered Diablos recently
Probably, this parts are already sent to UAE, Lithuania, Latvia or US. As an exotic and rare car parts market isn’t that big, using osint tools might help to track this parts.
It's crazy to me that they tried to register it and there was no video from the DMV there from it. Here in the US there are cameras in/out of every entry point, and multiple inside the DMV... if you try to register a vehicle that isn't yours you're going to be on video along with the vehicle you rolled in with.
Crazier still it was recovered with the chassis and engine intact.
Registering the car in the UK is done by Computer or at the post office with a Form, we don't have offices anymore due to our Dickhead Government thinking it is an outdated system and using the funding for it to line their pockets...
You can apply via the internet or by post here
@@joshallen2462 ah. You have to be in person here and typically with the vehicle.
In the UK our DMV is called DVLA.
Drivers vehicle licensing agency .
But yes crazy situation. The whole story stinks..
We have the situation here in the UK where if you saw a car parked on the road looking like it’s lost it’s owner you could apply for the title online DVLA would contact the current owner and if they didn’t respond DVLA would register it in your name🤦🏻♂️
So glad he got it back because it could have been shipped out and never ever seen again
Parts won’t be cheap unless he gets his own stuff back
This car is my dream car. Timeless design I love it
So a fellow Lamborghini owner suddenly appears with a car with all new parts ? Nobody would steal those parts unless they had a specific buyer or their own car
Paul Rutter needs to be hugged with a "My Smotherpillow" just to hear his muffledscreams.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! 😂
Same thing happened to my uncles Diablo luckily it was found it one piece and in better condition then it was before it got robbed.
SHUT UP
Had a few theories on how it got taken, but, I'm guessing too much heat to even wrap the car and drive it. So they drove it on backroads only and parked it out of sight. Looked like it got rained on & windows down. And sat gathering dust
Nah they hid it and were gonna ship it out, once it got all that heat they prob took all the shit off that they easily could remove and sell it on, then stashed it somewhere and GTFO
Where in Yeovil Somerset?!
A Diablo VT that does not have a passive or active tracker....... No wonder the insurance company walked.
VINwiki upload notification I click
Just because someone has money doesn't mean they are not a thief.
We need part 2 when it comes to rebuild
Bummer
Glad he got the car back! I'd block his name before someone else finds the guy. He seems pretty easy to fool.
Tavarish and Houston crosta both have lemon parts. Now if they want to part with them is another story!! Good luck btw love the stories!
That was supposed to say lambo parts
When I started watching these story videos, I was sceptical. Too crazy to be true, but they mostly make sense and seem plausible.
This one though - you guys have got some questions to answer! What happened to the key that was at the facility? What happened to the cars that were moved in order to get the Diablo out? How did they get access to the keys, and the car (assuming they were not stored in the same room)?
The storage owner didn't own any supercars. Some Bentley’s were recovered by the Police in 2019 as the storage owner didn’t pay the finance.
There's cameras everywhere in Europe. This is a crazy story..
That guy who stored the car sold it no way you have expensive cars and you are so laid back any collector would want to make sure his pride and joy are safe and sound
So what key did they use to steal it?
I had a Mustang Cobra. Someone stripped the Cobra-specific parts from it when it was parked in a mechanic's parking lot (they were supposed to keep the car inside, but didn't). Weeks later my Nephew stopped to help someone whose car had broken down on the side of the road. It was a Mustang. While talking to the guy my Nephew noticed ... those "Cobra" parts on HIS car were specific to MY Cobra, not that person's faux Cobra. They WERE my parts.
When the guy left to get help my Nephew and his friend stole back the parts they could remove. The police later contacted me, they had arrested the guy for something else and asked me to see if I could identify the remaining parts. There was no mistaking them, so I got them back (quite damaged from his amateur removal from my car and install on his). I was glad to have them back though.
How did the keys go in to the crooks hands??? some things fishy with the storage place!!
when was the yellow stolen? there's a recently restored Diablo in the Philippines.
I’d be talking to the guy that stored the car about him maybe knowing someone with a diablo. Maybe someone needed parts and had it stolen or maybe paid the guy to pass the car on. Who knows but idk how the guy storing it just had no consequences.
If you can afford a diablo, you should be able to afford a nice house with garage space and an alarm system. If you love your car you dont palm it off to some enthousiast you just met.
The local dealer friend has something to do with it for sure
Need a part 2
How can you just walk into a storage and take a car without anyone knowing very suspicious and just goes to show you can never trust anyone else but yourself
Imagine storing super cars on a property without video surveillance 🤯🤯🤦♂️
So this guy storing your car has other cars and they only took yours ! He is sus
The parts should appear sometime in a new Diablo, it’s not like there’s a million of them
Not to rain on the parade and it’s heartbreaking to see, but theres is no chance you are ever finding them parts unless you strip every VT in the world and match the specific parts serial No’s and build dates which, lets be realistic, is never going to happen.
Able to affort such a car, but hasn't got his own storage unit for the diablo?! bruh..
Or no gps tracking....
@@stuartd9741 Good one..
Sweet 😊
I can’t believe what those heathens did to that unicorn 😢
So no other cars go missing no? No cctv for cars of such value or around the property here in the uk that’s basically unheard of! Definitely down to mr rutter
eBay uk has bumper and doors
Ive stored cars in places similar, they always tell me to keep the keys.
Is there a way to look up cars like this one that were wrecked. Someone obviously only needed certain parts and most car guys I know are looking for deals.
What is odd to me, is: In a storage of dozens of cars why only his Lambo got stolen? How this car could be retrieved without the owner of the property noticed? This story is very fishy to me
You need to be checking world wide find out if there's any wrecked out there Or flood damaged
Dream car
There’s a yellow VT bumper in Perth australi
This sounds like a good plot for a new Guy Richie movie call it “No Barn Lock and two Smoking Diablo wheels”
Maybe Lamborghini can help out...doubt they would, but the story is crazy and the publicity could be awesome for them. Like when Porsche did that restoration of that tractor (right?)
If it's 2020 how the hell is there no cameras on the property? With that many valuable cars why would you even risk it.
A guy named aleister like alrister Crowley driving a Diablo 🔥🔥
Why would you not immediately investigate that registration attempt? Like seriously. My 8 cars are worth like 12k all together and I would be super suspicious after that text.
So a dude with storage for his and apparently a few more cars from other people, don't have any security cameras around that spot? Weird.
