Notts Police are urging owners of Land Rover Defenders to be vigilant after a recent number of incidents.
Six of the 4×4 cars have been stolen in June and July across the Rushcliffe, Newark and Sherwood areas.
The police are urging owners to be vigilant and to secure their vehicle.
We believe they’re being stolen for parts
Neighbourhood Inspector Craig Berry said: “We believe these vehicles are being stolen and stripped for the parts.
“They are typically stolen overnight and the A46 appears to be key route around which offences occur.”
