then you would nick more then one so you have some spare

lets put this in example, your saving up for the latest phone, car, computer or whatever. Your £100 off. You go into town you find a wallet, it has £200 but hey ho you only take £100 and drop the wallet on the floor.

and in todays climate people know what everything is worth so if there gonna with the trouble of nicking one hub cap they might as well nick all of them

Because it would take longer, therefor increase the risk of getting caught?

Maybe they had a bit of dignity and decided to leave 3? Or... maybe they just borrowed it for a photoshoot and put it back on tonight?

Isnt there a website you can make your own up? Or was that for a "sticker" centrecap.

What do they usually look like, never seen speedline centre caps, few on eBay.
