A rare Lancia Aurelia grill and Specialized stunt jumper bike were stolen from a domestic garage in Epsom between 7pm on Sunday, March 7 and 10.30pm on Tuesday, March 9.

The grill was removed from the 1960’s Lancia sport and is described as, arm shield in shape, chrome, with a Lancia badge at the top.

The bike is black, with white forks on the wheels and cow-horn handle bars and worth approximately £1,700.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Gresham Hughes said police patrols had been stepped up in the area and appealed for information: “Both these items are very distinctive and the Lancia grill is a prized possession.

"I am appealing to residents and local businesses, perhaps you have been offered either of the items or you may have seen them for sale on an auction website.”

Anyone with information should contact DC Hughes on 0845 125 2222.
