Tracker Shaquille is hot on the heels of a car that could soon be smuggled out of the country and shipped to Romania. The car’s driver has suspected links to an eastern European gang of car thieves, and Shaquille is desperate to get the vehicle back before it disappears for good. With the clock ticking, he traces the car to an address in Warrington – but can he get the driver to hand over the keys?\n\nIn Birmingham, tracker Neil is closing in on a stolen Audi A4. With a police response vehicle just moments away, the thieves are running out of options. They’re forced to abandon the vehicle and make their getaway on foot.\n\nJust a few miles away in Sutton Coldfield, the owner of a VW Golf becomes the latest victim of a trend known as car cannibalism. Thieves cashing in on a shortage of car parts have stripped the entire front end of his vehicle, removing items such as the bonnet, front grill, headlights and bumper. \n\nMeanwhile, in Guildford, tracker Richard is searching for a digger that’s been hidden on the edge of a golf course.
