$120K Classic Convertible Stolen in Pentland Hills

Moorabool Crime Investigation Unit detectives are appealing for public assistance to help locate a unique classic convertible stolen from Pentland Hills over the weekend.

The classic car is a unique and collectable vehicle that wouldn't look out of place on the set of a James Bond film.

Burglars entered a rural property on Dicksons Road sometime overnight from midnight Saturday to 11.15am Sunday.

Access was gained to a shed before offenders took off with a dark red 1965 Riley Roadster convertible, bearing registration plates 75672H.

The car is valued at $120,000.

Also stolen from the address was an orange KTM 450CC dirt bike, registration 86278.

Detectives have released an image of the Roadster in the hope someone can provide any knowledge of its whereabouts.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

Quotes from the investigating officer, Detective Senior Constable Alexei Anikeev from Moorabool CIU:

"This car is someone's pride and joy and the product of hours of love".

"The Roadster is not something you see every day. It wouldn't exactly blend in with Camrys or Corollas on the road".

"Someone knows something and we urge that person to come forward".
