This documentary exposes the criminal underbelly of car crime in Britain and the people who choose to get involved in it. From car thieves and spotters, to people who fake accidents in order to claim money from insurance companies, the show looks at people who are proud to be involved in car crime in the UK. Jamie Manderson is a 40-year-old former car thief from Swindon. He was once labelled Britain’s most convicted car criminal, although Jamie says that is wrong. “Not Britain’s biggest car thief. I like to think Britain’s best car thief,” he explains. During his 25 years as a car thief, this ‘rogue of the road’ stole up to 14 cars a night and could be in and gone in 30 seconds. Jamie now wants to turn over a new leaf – for his son, if nothing else. This new straight-and-narrow road means starting over for Jamie. He has never had a driving licence or car insurance and now needs driving lessons!
