"AS YOU WILL SEE from our special report starting on page 16, this years MMOC National Rally went ahead without too many drama’s thanks to the hard work and commitment from all those involved. The weather up until the morning of the show at least was at best described as wet and I’m sure had the rain continued on Saturday the show would have been in serious trouble. On a slightly more depressing note, I have noticed on a variety of internet forums that the number of posts regarding stolen Minors is on the increase. Three cars were noted in one area all within a few days of each other which to me looks extremely suspect. Obviously if the thief is determined then no amount of security will stop them but please try to be as conscious as possible and put as many obstacles in their way as you can. This increase in stolen cars obviously prompts the question, why are they being stolen in the first place, certainly not for joy riding I’m sure. I can therefore only presume that it’s for re-sale, so if you are offered parts or even a complete car from a dubious source please contact the Police. Remember that cheap engine could have once been powering someone’s pride and joy"
