The parts were taken from four Ford Fiestas and two Land Rovers
A Nottinghamshire man who was caught with a garage full of stolen car parts has been jailed. Engines, doors, bonnets and other bits from six different stolen cars were discovered during a series of police raids at properties with links to Thomas Timson.
An investigation was launched against the 36-year-old. Police said Timson repeatedly lied to try and discredit the case and get the seized car parts returned to him. A lock-up in Walesby, near Ollerton, was the first property to be raided in August 2021, when officers followed up intelligence suggesting stolen vehicles were being taken there to be broken down into parts and sold.
When this failed, Timson contacted the Nottinghamshire Police control room and made up a series of lies about the officers investigating his case to try and obstruct their investigation into his criminal activity. After denying doing anything wrong throughout the investigation, Timson, of HMP Five Wells, Wellingborough, changed his plea on the day his trial was due to begin at Nottingham Crown Court on Monday, September 4.
