You can steal your own car from a garage.
But what if he just said that the OP had told him to collect the car? Then it becomes he says he said. The fact that he had stayed with the OP on two occasions would muddy the waters too.0 -

So anyone staying at your home has free access to your car, meaning they take it and get stopped by the police you're happy to be done for permitting no insurance?0 -

This not the same thing. He can argue that he has a verbal contract to pick up the car on the transporter. No driving without insurance involved as he's not driving the car.0 -

It is, it may be a shock to you but criminal lie to the police. You don't know what he's done with the car but if he's sold it on or it's not recovered you're looking at theft.0 -

At best we're not getting the full true story here, at worst it's complete fantasy. I think the OP needs to be more upfront here and explain exactly what's transpired.
I'm eagerly awaiting the day when someone actually admits that they've made up the whole thing.
In all my years on the internet I've never seen that happen. Now that would be a thread worth reading. One day maybe.0 -

He was collecting it from the garage, and delivering it to a dealer in the UK to be repaired.
Or have I completely misunderstood the very confusing story?If it sticks, force it.
If it breaks, well it wasn't working right anyway.0 -
