There appears to be a gang operating in the Midlands areas that are targeting garages, I doubt it, but it could be related to the same group, or they moved and targets a different area of the country.

Whilst it could be coincidence, the fact that they gained entry to our property from the rear (a difficult task in itself), and also cut the phone lines halfway up the telegraph pole 15ft from the ground, to me shows they were intent on bigger plans (they probably stood on the roof of a van to cut the lines).

A number of other garages near us have also had lines cut and premises gained entry. However as nothing was taken, it seems they are looking for something in particular. Which obviously isn't vehicles, equipment or tools (as we have plenty of them).

This to me suggests this gang is after parts. Which makes sense as they are difficult to identify as stolen and easy to sell on the like of ebay. We don't stock parts barring low value consumables and fluids.
