We should start a new thread detailing ideas and solutions so we don't bugger up Spook's thread. I think CW may have some ideas way ahead of me but we could all collaborate on at least an GPS tracking education.

That sucks! Sorry to hear it impacts you so badly. Seems it was a crime of opportunity as these cars are now well past the point where demand for parts would be attractive. I also can't imagine it would be a candidate for trying to export past EU borders.

Its a stretch... but EVERYONE around here has a Ring or "Ring Style" video recording doorbell, if you could canvas the local neighborhood I'm sure people would be sympathetic, you may find video of at least the direction they went.
My Dads neighbor had his 18 wheeler stolen from in front of his house and the neighbors Ring doorbell at the corner of his street caught them taking the "wind breaker" off the cab and flattening the tires to pull it in to a garage literally around the corner from his.

I have asked neighbors and nearby companies if they have camera's set up. But most of them live away from the main road or a spider web is blocking view.
 Today(21st) we received info that the car was spotted 19th of August crossing the Dutch border to Belgium with Dutch plates. I have contacted police about that. There is still hope I will get the car back.  My brother started contacting Belgium harbour companies to look out for the car. Meanwhile we went ahead and purchased some GPS trackers for my family and my other car.

Check the local airport also, long term parking is a GREAT option for parking "joy-ride" cars, most airports don't report "abandons" until they hit 31 days... and even that is at the discretion of the lot attendant and how diligently he checks the lot.
EDIT, if there's a camera at the gate you may even get a picture if the jackasses that took the joy-ride.

This also sounds like it was pulled off by one familiar with you and your location. Someone who saw your workings on the vehicle.
Sorry for your predicament and hopefully you recover it. All the best!

Fingers crossed for you.
Which trackers did you go with?

Sorry to hear the bad news.
BMW gave us the FREE option to secure our SAV from being stolen. It was the 4 digit code for the radio....without the right code....nobody can steal our X5 and other E-series lineup. No code....no start....even if you have the right key! But due to most of us.... "wanting"...newer infotainment.. we've abandon this feature.
