Back in 1997 in the German city of Frankfurt, a man reported his car as stolen to the police. According to German regional paper Augsberger Allgemein, the man, now 76-years-old, was driven by the police with his daughter to be reunited with the car. He reported it missing and eventually police found the vehicle 4km away from where the man thought he’d parked it. Earlier this year a man from Scotland lost his car after attending a Stoneroses gig in Manchester. GettyHe eventually reported the car stolen, but it was found six months later, exactly where he’d left it, though with parking fines estimated at over £5,000.
