serousley why would you even want to

so my mums cars number plates got stolen this morning parked in a car park of a holiday inn in engalnd with 70 other cars around it in broad daylight !!

any ideas why this would have happend ???

it not even a veryposh car l mean there was her bosses car parked next to it wich is a dodge something or other ??

any ides ??

the only thing l can think of is someone is going to clone the car
its more common than u think many plates r stolen each year
there was a programme on tv not long ago about it its either for monetry gain ( someone has stolen one & wants to clean it up & changes the plate} or too be used in a robbery of some sort whatever the reason u MUST report the theft to the police & possibly the DVLA if for no other reason to protect yourself if ur number plates r used illigally!!!
